QHS DAY 7

Today I went to many classes at Quilmes Highschool. First I went to the middle schoolers where I taught a geography class in all Spanish it was very difficult but i had a lot of fun watching students laugh at my mispronunciations. The teacher does a lot of crossword puzzles so we did one of those. I stood in front of the class and said definitions for one of the letters and they filled in the rest. Then I went to the seniors and taught a history class on world war 2. I was taught how to collect information from students to see what they remember. I did this by asking questions and making a chart. They asked really good questions about university the United States and we had a great discussion about the hypocrisy of the education system in the United States. This conversation started when I told them that we are not obligated to take a class on Latin American history when they are obligated to take a class on US history. After I did more history classes and then did two English classes where I read a short story and helped students prepare their analytical essays for the Cambridge exam. This a very hard test that they have to stay on the last year of secondary school.
