Today I had the final meeting with Salaam. We decided on me producing teaching material for 8 films, 5-6 pages of my text for each movie including instructions and activities for the whole range of age groups. Two sets for 1st to 3rd grade, one for 3rd to 6th grade, one set of materials for 5th to 9th grade, and four for the upper secondary. All to be ready by the end of April, because in May I start exams and I need to be ready for that.
I just watched the first film. "The Indian" - about an approximately 8 year old Peruvian boy who has been adopted by a Dutch couple because they couldn't have a child "of their own". The woman becomes pregnant and the story developes. Really an adorable story about identity, belonging, family and especially friendship. I already have some ideas for activities and I look so much forward to working with the film and to cooperate with Salaam.
It'll be a perfect April - spring and an interesting job to do....what more could I ask?
