As usual, a significant amount of my personal time this year has been dedicated to improving our existing curricula and writing new curricula. However, this year I added full-time teaching of both English and math to a combined class of 16 grade 1 and grade 2 students. This has been a good opportunity for me to learn what is easy and what is difficult for them to understand and what writing I need to continue to do.
I also spent this past year refining our early education curricula in both English and Thai. This particularly meant editing and improving our bilingual teaching of Thai Reading Books and English Reading Books. Each series was extended to 20 reading books, which read like chapters of a large book.
