Today was our second day at Country Day School. We each split up and went to our favorite classrooms from yesterday, and also tried some new ones. Some of us even got the chance to teach a lesson! The children were very eager to see us again, and greeted us with many hugs and kisses. One of the popular topics this morning among the students was the earthquake we all experienced last night. Not all of the students felt it, but most did. We got the opportunity to view presentations from second grade classrooms studying the rainforest. The class presented a poem for us that they wrote on the necesity of preserving the rainforest. Each child was an expert on their own animal. All of the classrooms were decorated beautifully to go along with the rainforest theme. We also go the opportunity to view a concert perfromed by a kindergarten class where they sang songs to their parents, and us. They were very excited to host their "End of the Year Concert". During the school day it started to rain very hard. On our walk home (in the rain) we really got a first hand understanding of what the wet season really meant!
