I wake up feeling so happy and think right away about the blessing I got from the missionaries yesterday afternoon.
I go to school and give the English midterm. I’ve been using the same lesson plans for the S1s and the S2s so they are the same test. For the first part I read out loud statements and they are supposed to answer true or false.
They have a hard time understanding everything I say and I have to write every other question
on the board. In on of the questions I said the word, “bird” and they had no idea what I meant.
Then I wrote it and asked them how they say it.
“Barday.”
“You people are ridiculous. Haha.”
I catch a girl looking at her neighbor’s paper and I mark her paper in red pen. After the test is over everyone hands in their tests. One pile for the blank cover sheets I gave them, and one pile for the test.
I notice some writing on a paper in the blank pile and see that the girl I saw cheating had used her other paper to complete the test so there would be no mark. But I know exactly who the girl is, because she was the one who skipped my lunch detention. I got to my list of students in detention and write her name really big in red pen and connect the page to her other paper.
“Everyone thinks I’m just some stupid Muzungu, don’t they?”
One of the boys helping me organize the papers says, “Not you, master. You are very wise.”
HA.

On the English exam I gave them and extra credit question worth up to ten points. In our class we have read three simple stories. The Pot of Gold, A Giant in the
To fully appreciate what I’m about to share, let me give you a brief summary of each story:
The Pot of Gold: A mean man named Grumble finds and catches an elf in the forest. He demands that the elf take him to his gold or he won’t let the elf go. The elf takes him to a tree and tells him the gold is buried under the tree. Grumble marks the tree with his red scarf and, before going to fetch his shovel, makes the elf promise not to touch the scarf. He promises and when Grumble returns to the forest he finds that the elf kept his promise, but put a red scarf on every single tree in the forest.
A Giant in the
The Wonderful Day: Roger Rabbit finds a gigantic cabbage in the middle of the road. He pushes the cabbage home only to find that it won’t fit through his door. He cries and then tells himself that crying doesn’t help, thinking does. So he gets an idea and calls all the rabbits in the forest to come and have a cabbage party so the cabbage won’t be wasted. The rabbits eat and get full. The oldest rabbit tells Roger to remember to call them if he ever needs a meal. When they leave the cabbage is just the right size for Roger, who says this is the most wonderful day he has ever had.
The extra credit question was:
