About Ometepe Bilingual School

In less than three weeks, I'll be leaving for Central America! I'm working to finish all my homework and studying before I graduate from Clarkson University, and then two days after graduation, it'll be time to get on the plane!

I've realized I haven't given the website for the Ometepe Bilingual School! Here it is:

During the month of June I will be teaching 40-50 students between the ages of 5 and 18 (although I hear there is a 2-year-old student at the school now!). I will need to come up with some good lesson plans that can engage all of the students, no matter what their level of English.

If you are interested in providing me a with a lesson plan you would like me to teach, please let me know!

Some ideas I already have are songs from Camp Ma-He-Tu, games, and hopefully some lessons from professors here at Clarkson. I hope to give each child a little bit of what I have learned throughout my education, so they can see how much fun learning can be!
