Possessive Pronouns!

I have two weeks left and am continually trying to decide what the most important concept is to teach. I have decided (for the sake of my sanity) to stay far away from verb conjugation. I wouldn't be any good at explaining it and I am not going to get anywhere in two weeks with it. So instead I am teaching mini lessons on random things I think/hope will be useful. So this week we are teaching the heck out of possessive pronouns.

The thing is that had someone told me that I was going to be teaching English, I probably wouldn't have come. I specifically looked for a project where I didn't have to do just that. But I am thankful for the opportunity to be stretched in a new way and am totally in love with my students. I am happy for the other activities that I do with the women's group too, but I have learned a lot by simply interacting with my students. I have been to a few of their homes now and it is cool to get to know them on an individual basis (with the help of a translator). Most live with one parent. One parent has either passed away or moved to another city for whatever reason. Others have their grandparents and aunts and uncles living at their houses. The people in one neighborhood are all connected somehow. They grow up together and some rarely venture outside their neighborhood. They are just normal (punk) teenagers who pass notes and make fun of their teachers and flirt and gossip. It is oddly reassuring that teenagers are all the same, all across the world.
