For the first three months, July, August, and September, since I came to Senegale, elementary schools were on summer vacation.
Now in October, elementary schools finally began.
I'm working at the"Teacher Training Center", but I'm also a volunteer at elementary schools.
My supervisor was supposed to go with me to the elementary school to greet with teachers, though, he didn't show up after all, so I had to go to schools alone.
There are two elementary schools have partnerships with Teacher Training Center.
Today, my first day, I was going to greet with teachers and students.
When I passed by classrooms, children were staring me, they seemed to think, "Who is that?".
The first thing I'd like to do is to build relationships with teachers and children.

These batteries were made in Senegal.
I tried to use them in my electronic dictionary, but they ran out within a day.
And when pressed by hand, they were so soft.
It is so easy to chage those shapes by hand.
セネガルに来てからの7,8,9月の3ヶ月間は、セネガルの小学校は夏休みでした。
10月になり、ようやく待ちに待った小学校開幕。
私の配属先は教員養成センターですが、小学校でのボランティアも兼ねる予定です。
私の拠点である教員養成センターと提携している小学校というのが2校あります。
小学校へ一緒に行くはずだった上司は結局来ず、1人で小学校へ乗り込みました。
初日の今日は、あいさつ回りでした。
教室を通るたびに今日初めて私のことを見る子供たちが「あれは、誰だ?」とザワつきました。
これからしていくことはまず、人間関係づくりです。
小学校の門です。
セネガルで作られた乾電池。
電子辞書に使ってみたら、1日で切れてしまいました。
そして、手で押すと潰れるくらい柔らかな電池なのです。
