This week the PCorps people who have the responsibility of placing trainees at their sites came to the school. The group was asked where they would feel comfortable in living and what grades they would feel comfortable teaching. Michelle called themselves TEFL's (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). Michelle told them about her SVEA (Student Virginia Education Association) work in Professional/Teacher development. She also talked to them about her work as a summer camp counselor. She found out that Macedonia has a summer GLOW program (girls leadership program). It sounded interesting to Michelle.
The router for the internet hookup is down at the school. We seem to be having computer problems on both sides of the world this week!!!!! It's a good thing we have good ole reliable Ma Bell!!!! Anyway, as soon as it is corrected, Michelle will be sending pictures of Veles.
Wednesday is now movie night for the group. Michelle was heading over to Austin's host family's home to hang out and watch a movie. She mentioned that is has gotten cold earlier than expected over there. I just sent out a box with all her winter clothing (coat, boots etc) yesterday. Don't ask what the postage cost!!!
