Wednesday March 19,

Before they cut the trees it was a rain forrest.

Daily buckets of rain

But.... warm rain I must add.

Today I was in Toddler A, the class of 2-3 year olds. Another great teacher and class. Again I’ll say what beautiful children, I was looking at pictures on their family trees in class, no wonder they are so cute, their mothers look like models.
Before noon I got a message my cab was waiting to take me to another school, owned by the same people. Met with some teachers and observed some children. I just happened to have my Irlen materials in my bag and was able to do some preliminary Irlen screening (he didn’t have much English) and I think he may do better with Irlen overlays and coloured paper when he writes. 
I had lunch with two teachers and one began to describe her Irlen symptoms; she is a definite Irlen person for sure.   www.irlen.com  Check out the webpage so you will know what I’m referring to.
Got a taxi back to my morning school and before I knew it they were telling me my taxi was waiting to go back to the hotel. I’ll be up late tonight, getting ready for a session with not one but two schools. They will combine the two schools.
Then tomorrow I’ll have to condense my two suitcases into one 23 kilo for my domestic flights to Londrina and Vitoria. Looks like I’ll have to leave behind the dollar store goodies and anything else not necessary.
