It has been a pretty laid back week and weekend, early on in the week our UMD supervisor made the trip over to check that everything is going over with the school and observe each of us for a couple lessons. Apparently we are doing a pretty bang-up receiving nothing but compliments from the teachers and administration to the extreme pleasure of our supervisor (I think he just wants it to go well so he can take more trips to Slovenia). The two lessons went really well, I taught one 8th grade geography lesson (Mediterranean Sea) and a 6th grade History (Ancient Greece). Other then that the week went along with much happening. All three of us got a little sick (I blame 5th graders and below) so we spent to weekend resting up trying to get healthy for the next few weeks shenanigans. We went to the mall which word on the street might be the largest in Europe. I don't like shopping in America and found out that being in Europe doesn't change any of that.

As for next week I think I will talk to my CT about taking over a few of his classes for the remainder of my time here. He teaches 6th, 7th and 8th Geography and History. I think I'll ask to take over a class from each grade maybe one Geo and two History. It will be nice to get some consistency in planning. The difficulty will be getting the classes under control considering their current teacher has absolutely no control over them while he teaches. Each class has their difficulties, but the 7th is by far the wildest and I know that I'll have to unleash my inner asshole (as my former CT calls it) to bring them back to reality.

The following next few weekends should be packed with fun and excitement, next week we plan to head outside of the city and climb a good sized hill/mountain (kind of fun). The weekend after that is what I'm getting the most excited for, Munich for the Strong Beer Festival.

Thats all I have for now and I don't have much for new pictures so I'll just post a couple randoms, mmmmmk.
