After our first actual visit to our partnership place, I really thought that we can get through this together. Our initial worries that the students' standard of english may be too poor for us to communicate with them were completed lifted and it's reassuring to know that the staffs there, especially the Principal herself, welcomed us and are willing to give us their fullest support.
With much more about the students learnt, we are now able to start off on our detailed planning of the lessons. More research will need to be done with regards to the progress of a child and their artistic (aesthetic) capabilities and expectations. Our outline of the 'illustration' idea pretty much highlight most of the concerns in the field of language but there are much more we can do to ensure the best out of our lesson. Above of all this however, I still believe we lack fundamental knowledge on how to interact/communicate effectively with young children. More works to be done, so to say.
