radKIDS

I'm teaching my first radKIDS class. The students are in second grade and my son is also taking the class. Graduation is on Friday and I'll let you know how it goes. I've felt ill prepared and dissatisfied with my teaching, but I'm starting to feel better. Three students gave me hugs today! They made me feel really good.
Today's class went especially well, the Sam's Secret portion most especially. The kids were mostly receptive during the discussions and drills. When we were reading the story (Sam's Secret), it was just like a story time and they all were paying attention and I felt like they liked having a story time. I was nervous in preparation for that story because it's about dealing with uncomfortable touch and private parts and telling so that the person doing it will be stopped, punished and helped. Whew! that's done.
Tomorrow we will prepare the children's certificates and review the physical skills so everyone's ready for graduation (stopping the red man (a man covered in pads))
This is good and I could (and will for many years) certainly do it again :-)
