Today saw me undertake my first A level Geography field trip. Seven Year 12 students and I boarded a minbus and headed for the coast! Thankfully, this didn't take too long as we live only 10 minutes from the beach! Unit 2 of the A level has a section callled Crowded Coast and so we headed off to check out the coast defences and usage along the Karachi coast. We had a very interesting time and took lots photos which we will be analysing. We are hoping to head off further up the coast after Ramzan and look at the different coastal features and uses as we make our way to French Beach, where if the Sixth Form get their way will involve an over night stay and a BBQ! Then our next plan is to head of to Dubai so that we can compare and contrast the two areas, I am really enjoying teaching Geography!!
I have restarted my Urdu lessons and we are revising all the work we did last year. I remember about 60-65% of the vocabulary and only about 10% of the hand writing and reading which I don't think is too bad. I am trying to speak as often I can at school and I am managing to make myself understood most of the time.
I am preaching again this weekend at the Cathedral, I have the title 'Understanding and Overcoming Satan', just goes to show what happens when you don't attend the planning meeting...
