Living the Prague Life

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
People have asked how is Prague... How are you doing? Often I am at a loss for words because there never seems to be an eloquent concise way to express what my life is like.  This is why I love pictures. They can say so many things that I just can't find the words for. So here are a few snap shots of my Prague life over the past few months.

School Life

It is really different having a smaller class but what they lack in numbers they make up for in personality! Teaching four is like having a small group all the time. What I love most is you really get to know your students. There is so much more time you can devote to each one and no one can hide. Everything goes faster: prep, planning, marking and even photo copying. We are a small family with a very unique blend of language and culture. Each day they are teaching me something new.

Below is some of their work they did for the new Christian International School of Prague Website (which will hopefully be officially launched in December) Students were asked to share their favourite thing about CISP.

My favourite part of CISP is my students and that I get to teach them about the love of Jesus. What I love about teaching grade one is getting to see the children grow so much over the year. The growth in their writing, reading and speaking is amazing to watch.

Day Trip to Kutna Hora
On one of our Czech holidays In October  6 of us took the day to venture outside of Prague and took a train to a the small town of Kutna Hora. Known for its silver mine and for having a church nearby that is decorated in bones.
