Work in the kindergarten is going on. 

Nowadays we started to work in another groups as well. Marzena gave us all necessary knowledge so now we are able to create different activities for different groups in the kindergarten. These weeks we had different events in the kindergarten. I helped to create cards for grandparents in the groups five and seven. Then in the group seven on Wendsday I took part in the organisation of the grandparents Day. Children were so happy and beautiful on that Day. It was full of the magical creatures from different fairytales =D I felt like I AM in the Disney world =D Also in the group number seven I was doing some drawing activities and created rainbow with kids. Teacher help me to do it. These weeks we also had photo session and Marzena gave me beautiful gift with my photo. I do not differ from the child I Orly regret that on that Day I was not also dressed up as a Disney charakter. We had a lot of Elsas from Frozen =D

Kids from group number five already know some words in Azerbaijani now I need to teach some words in group number seven. They are a bit younger so I guess it will Take more time. Funny fact about group number seven. When kids talk to me and I say them that I do not understand them they start to scream exactly the same thing. I guess they think that the Lauder they sound the better I understand Polish =D Unfortunately, it does not work like that =D  So I Stopped to say them that I do not understand. Better to say Nie wiem =D They do not scream in that case. Children Deal better with the fact that I do not know =D

Another achivement for me in groups are that the naughtiest children now love me and kind of accept my authority because I know how to say that I will say to Marzena =D The most silent ones started to comunicate with me and invite me to play with me. This is very valuable for me. Especially in group number seven the boy who is not comunicating now playing with me. Another interesting thing that is important for me is that teachers in group number seven easily let me to create activities for kids. Due to it now I am planning to create Bird feeders in each group in the kindergarten and decorate with it the yard. I hope that it will remain here even when I leave Poland. In the first Day in the kindergarten Marzena showed us video full of activities by volunteers that worked here before us. It was kind of motivational and we felt competitive. We have high standards =D I Wonder if previous volunteers are still Reading this blog, if so please leave comets =D Share with us some tips.

P.S My last post was in Polish forgive me my English now =D

P.S.S I have some problems with my email so I am not able to post any photos here. Will fix it and add more photos less text in my next post. 

Do zobaczenia!!!

This week I was with Marzena, and I did a lot of things.
I did a theatre abour the spanish fairy tale "El pez Arcoiris". When I finished the performance, children decorated the the fish scale with cartunin and colors plastiline, in the same time I called groups of 3-4 person to decorated the draw of  the main character with different materials to estimulate the creativity. It was amazing see how children use the materials and enjoy.
I did other activity about draw. The children and me were little artist copied "Starry Ninght" of Van Gogh. I drow step by step and children copy me. The result was great!

Okay let`s start! This part of the blog I will try to write in Polish. For those who knows Polis, please do not judge me I am just learning it! =D

Nasza praca w przedszkolu trwa. Każdy dzień jest pełen nowych emocji. Miałem już problem z zapamiętywaniem nazwisk. Znam wszystkich po imieniu))) Teraz przede mną jest nowe zadanie. Dowiedz się nazwiska innych dzieci z innych grup. Teraz jest czas na Boże Narodzenie. Przedszkole jest pięknie urządzone. Ale pokóy naszej grupy jest dla mnie najpiękniejsza - ja, Mary i Johan ozdobiliśmy i pomogliśmy Marzena w scenerii. Również w tym tygodniu odbył się występ dla rodziców, na który od dawna przygotowywaliśmy się z Marzeną. Rodzice spotkali się z nami i dali nam pyszne ciasteczka. Również w tym czasie udało nam się pracować w innych grupach. Marzena pomógł nam również zorganizować różne hobby dla dzieci z innych grup. Przez cały pobyt tutaj wiele się nauczyliśmy. Jedną z najważniejszych rzeczy było to, że Marzena nauczyła mnie określać fizjologiczne cechy dzieci. Z pomocą Marzeny mogę teraz określić, jaka część mózgu u dzieci  dominuje.

Dzień dobry, jestem Mery z Hiszpanii :)

18th of November

Since the first day that we arrived I feel like at home.

Children and Marzena prepared a special wellcome with Dances for us, and we Danced with them. It was very funny. The children Draw my siluete and later they Draw the details. I teached body parts in spanish and children repeat the words. They learn very Fast!

We played a lot in the garden, with our class and the littelest children.

I  did the game „Rayuela” to put in the floor and play and she teached the spanish colours with balloons and different activities. We are surprised because the children Lear very Fast. It is amazing see how they learn a foreign language. We would like to learn the polish as faster as them!

In the second week we felt like we was here for one month. We loved children and they love us. It is amazing how you can communicate with them altought you don’t speak the same language.

In this week Aynur teached the Azerbaijan colours and I continued with Spanish colors doing different activities. We are very happy to be with Marzena because she Has a lot of resources, games, activities, etc, and we never are bored with Her. And when she is not with us, we have work to do so we are very happy. We love doing different things for children.

This week we made the material to do a „Red Hunter” teathre. Together we did a good puppet making Job. We did too a presentation about ourselves, and It was a good opportunity to teach our language too. We talk about our family, food, flag, country, Animals, colours, names, Hobbes and places that we love.

I teached numbers, colors and body parts with different activities. And I have to say that I am surprising how they learn spanish. Some children give me draws with the name of the colors in spanish, and I felt very happy. I love that they give my draws.

This week we did our flags with them, using colour papers.

We finised this super week making Foxes, squirrels and deer with flour and salt.

We started the week in the 3 years class because C teacher was Sick, and we are surprising how much time children Sleep. It was a very relax Day, we say a film with them, Take care while they Steep, etc.

The next Day was funnier, we did the Red Hunter perform, me in spanish and Aynur in azerbaijan. It was amazing because other classes come to see the show, and the director too! I  really loved do this teathre because I Saw children happy. When they painted about the performance I  was surprised with the draws. All of them was very beutiful.

We did Little flags for the roof with our flag colours, to decorate the class and the Friday we did a _Rabbit with  origami, step by stem with them. They made a beutiful rabbits. And they paint the Foxem, squirrels an deer that they made the last week with autum colours.

The  Monday I was alone in class, I teached the spanish song „Familia dedo”, and It was very useful to teach the family names, numbers and colors with different activities relationated with the song. I did too a plastiline Snake with them step by step, and I really loved their creations. I love the children creativity, they always surprised me. I finisz the Day making material to do a Little teathre, about the fairy tale „El pez Arcoiris”.

This week we did to the teathre with tem, I was in 3 years class helping, and waw it is very different one level and the other. But anyway it was great.
