Atika English Week




On the 18th of September, the Omani schools came back to life. As the new days of schools have started everyone was excited. Mothers dropping their children to the school and checking on them before leaving them in their new classes. All the schools were busy with parents, students and sure teachers.
In Atika School, English teachers were ready for the students. I am one of them proud to say that we had the idea to have the first week a ground week, a week where the students test their abilities in English and work through the week to know some ways to improve their language skills.

Australia




dear everyone
I am here to give you two news
at the end of this school year and the students were ready to leave (I know it is kinda old news )
news one, the students recieved a cultural package from Australia and they send one to them, mine is as usual, full of Omani stuff and we were proud to see them display in their classroom
this is what their teacher had to say
Dear Asma and students,We were delighted with your parcel. In the photos you can see studentssetting up a display in their classroom.We have a map & copies of the photos you sent to add to the display.Parents will see the display next week when they come in to talk to theirclassroom teacher about their child's report card.Students want to continue their friendship by writing letters to yourstudents, especially the girls in these photos.I have found an iEARN partner in Indonesia, Saara, a very keen youngeducator teaches in an Islamic school outside of Jakarta.Saara teaches English too. As an Indonesian language teacher, I will needto devote my classroom time to projects with Saara now.
We hope that our students can collaborate over the internet on projects.Saara is keen for her colleagues to join in too.I am really thankful Saara is in an Islamic school! I hope we can build astrong friendship and get to know and understand each others culture.Thank-you Asma for our project. Some students will write letters abouttheir everyday life to post to your students before the end of this calendaryear.
Kind Regards
Sue Foly

a tour around Hafit





The day: Tuesday 16/3/2010

Today we took Samantha and the bulldog, to a tour a round Hafit, one of the small villages in Saham.. it has so much fun
We went first to Ali bin Majed mansion, and Ali is the secretary to our president, and this is his house in his hometown as he lives for the moment in Muscat (the capital city of Oman) we couldn't go inside the gate of his mansion as it is a private property. So, we decided to go to the health center in the village it isn't a big hospital it is just a branch. It has two waiting rooms one of the men and one for the women, two doctors in both sides, it was quite crowded that morning so we didn't want to bother the patients, the students were curious about the ambulance, so we took a photo beside it and there were some doctors having their break,, I am sure they were wondering what we were doing.
After that, we went to the students favorite place "Fatma Hypermarket" it is actually a supermarket and even can be called a shop because it wasn't that big.. the students bought lots of sweets for themselves and as they claimed for Sam,, after spending 10 minutes beside the cashier .. Next was my husband's favorite place " the beach" the students were excited, they ran everywhere like bunch of kids, but I was tired to run after them, I had fun myself, I wrote on the beach the word iEARN and enjoed the nice sun and the soft breeze,, but again the noisy students disrupted that,, anyway,, it was fun, tomorrow they will write about it,, I am so happy that they well lol
