Projekttage bei der Schule and Farewell Party - Donnerstag, 20.6.13

GAPP Donnertag, 20.6.13
All students and teachers involved in the "International Friendship" project at KWR

Today's schedule was fairly short at school. We continued the Projekttage and started the day with our fun dance course. At the end of the dancing, we still had a couple of presentations to finish (they did not present last Friday). We had the opportunity to see presentations from Sophie and Hailey, Deborah, and Cassandra. All of the students watching and learning from them gave each one of them individual feedback about what they learned and a question they wanted to ask.
At the end of the presentations, we instructed students to get back into their skit groups and practice their skit for tomorrow's performance. They worked on their skits for about an hour and then school was dismissed.
We met back at school at 6pm to find ourselves caught in a thunder and lightening storm. The rain came down hard (which we don't see very often in Portland). It was amazing, amusing, and over quickly. We (Ralf and I) arranged a classroom to get ready for the potluck and farewell party. Students brought pizza, salads, and delicious treats to enjoy. We all hung out, chatted, and played some soccer on the playground. It was very sweet and relaxing. The farewell party was over by 8pm and many students went on their last downtown adventure with their hosts.
Tomorrow is our last day at KWR. I interviewed a couple of students about their experience at KWR and there is certainly going to be some sadness in leaving behind good friends here in Germany.
