It's Tuesday - I Think!

The days go by so quickly and we are so busy that it is difficult to remember what day it is. Today was the student Olympiad and the teams of students from different schools came to the Lyceum to participate in Information tasks. Each task was allowed fifteen minutes and the teams could take no longer. part of the time limit was to help them realize that different strategies are needed when time is a factor. They were involved with creating a brand and a slogan, researching and then deciding on the ideal education system, mixing a song, doing a scientific experiment, and others. Winners were chosen at the end of the morning. The students enjoyed it and seemed to work real well in their teams.

I have a presentation tomorrow so Natalya helped put together the Russian slides that will show on the screen at the same time as the English version.

We headed to the country to visit a school on the military base. Its quite large as it once housed 750 students and now there are five hundred there. On the way we crossed a canal that connects the Don and the Volga River.

I am hoping to Skype with Darin during my presentation tomorrow. We will see if it works.
