My ICRP, tranlated from spanish thanks to google.

My ICRP is with the School Attached Guayaquil. It is a public school for girls from grade one to grade eight, are in El Batan Alto, north of Quito. The school hours are 7:30 to 12:30, Monday to Friday. The 870 students living near the school, then most are neither rich nor poor. The public schools follow the state rules, for example every Monday is a half hour of songs and marches. All students must dress in blue uniforms. Also, there are assessments of student progress. In addition, girls learn phrases that have been made by government as progress and unity. Isabel Alvear, director of the campus, stressed that the aim of the school is "to prepare girls for life in a democracy. That is, they learn to elect and be elected ".. So far, the protests have made UNE school. The school offers classes in social studies, math, gym, computers, science, and if there are resources, English. A fun fact is that the German poet attended school Fabiola Carrera Annexed Guayaquil.

I taught both English and cheerleading classes. The seventh grade English classes had only months to us last year and this year had not had classes this year if it were a volunteer teacher. The school has no books in English for seventh grade, then I am using the books of last year, but I have a copy, then lessons are difficult to plan. I have three classes of more or less 50 students. Every Friday is my kind of cheerleading that consists of a group of 43 sixth grade students. These girls have a little experience with gymnastics and dance.

For the coming weeks, my English classes will learn basic verbs like "to be," "to have," and "to want" and useful vocabulary. They go to practice for games, homework and class activities. Ojala when that ends, they have a better idea basic English. The School cheerleaders will learn cheers Guayaquil Appends in both Spanish and English, and a final draft going to learn a short routine consisting of dance, acrobatics, and cheers.

The final project of mine can include the effect of the economic situation in public schools. For example, resources and programs that schools have compared to what the state requires. Or I can make an inquiry as to the social, historical and economic factors that shape the present education system in Ecuador.
