Guatemala

Hello everyone, I am here to talk to you a bit about Xela (This is the name of our city, it's Quetzaltenango but it's like a short for the mayan name) and our school. This week I have been working as a substitute teacher, which is fine by me, I go to classes and I help or if someone gets sick then I have to give the class. My school has been celebrating spirit week, that means that the kids and teachers dress up according to the theme. The kids have dressed as pilgrims and Indians, pajamas, occupation and hat day.

 These are some of the teachers at school with their hats on Hat day, it's one of the easiest days cause all you have to do is bring a hat :)

 A picture of the school, this will be the last year, since they will close this building, because the high school will move to a new building.
Today Saturday I had to be in coordination, the coordinator had to do somethings so I stayed receiving material and grade. We have classes on Saturdays for teenagers and adults, it's fun because we receive people from places around Quetzaltenango.

Here we have the students doing their test on the last day. This is one of the best days because we have to test and give grades so there is not a lot of planning :D
Well when I take more photos I will upload them and tell you about Xela a bit more.
