At morning assembly, I gave a lesson on the wonderful things we can do with the nines times tables. The kids are whizzes at memorizing, so they don't need tricks. From their oohs and ahs it was clear that they'd never seen such arithmetical shenanigans before.
The rest of the day was filled with meetings and English classes. The format of the classes seems to be that the teachers deliver information, the kids think about it and maybe one or two bold ones ask a question. There is a lot of silence. Our lessons don't quite fit the format since we sometimes need translators and are a bit intimidating, but I think the fit is okay.
