Language Study!

Our biggest goal right now is learning the language. (Biggest meaning both most important, and most difficult.) Laura will begin her one-on-one lessons tomorrow. I have been attending a class for 2 weeks. For those past two weeks, I have come home and taught Laura the lesson I learned. Today, we really kicked it up a notch and are looking at the present continuous tense.

It can be difficult to carve out significant time to study since things just take longer here to do (walking, riding public transit) and of course our cute as a button kiddo demands a good bit of concentration. Thus, like good multi-taskers, tonight I taught Laura the present continuous tense while she prepared food for the couple we will be hosting tomorrow night.

Just for fun, take a look at the board. I'm sure it makes sense.

Those charts look like the Spanish carts my high school teach tried to make us learn. It looks like too much fun--Dirk
