Its the age, stupid. That should be my Carville plaque above my desk here. Dealing with the 3rd graders has easily been the most challenging part about Moldova. I felt much better though as I played UNO with them and had one of the few boys in my English Club there. He tried to teach them as I play UNO with his class as well- and he almost gave up in frustration. That said, today went surprisingly well after I cut their class short last week at 20 minutes and told them not to come if they don’t want to learn. They were quiet for once and actually learned about Thanksgiving this time and about 30 different words revolving around it.
