El Proyecto de Composiciones de Inglés

Last week passed uneventfully. The temperature reached 10 ºC a few days, which was nice change. Spring is in the air - meaning I've rounded the bend on this experience, crossing the halfway mark, and now only three months remain of my teaching post here in Solsona. It suddenly feels as if time has sprouted wings and is soaring ahead, while I race to keep up. And I'm literally racing. Yesterday, five weeks into my marathon training, I ran 12 miles. Only nine more weeks until the big event in Madrid. So quite a lot of living still remains between now and my return stateside.  In school, the children are working on their essays and this weekend I took home several of them to grade. Next week they will begin memorizing them and by the end of March I will record each student reciting their essay from memory. I think they are getting used to hearing my accent and are understanding me better. It is hard to conclusively judge their progress as a result of my being here, but I think I'm making an impact and an impression at the very least.
