Winners School

since last year i to to Winners Family School once a week to teach Bible. It is a great school.  It is run by one of our church leaders and his wife. I teach 2 junior high classes for an hour each. we study the names of God. names like Elohim, El Shaddai, Jehovah, Jehovah Or, Jehovah Sabbaoth, El Shammah, etc,etc. it has been a great study and God has helped me be creative, which makes it more fun for everyone. i have taught the younger kids in the past but since I have Associates like Kyndra and Max they have been doing the primary students, and i am thankful for that.one thing i notice in Ghana is that people threaten a lot. parents and teachers are great at this. "stop that or i will beat you" don't do that or i won't give you toffee" (there is no toffee) i can't stand it. winner's school is no different or the other school i teach at or the kids club i do. i have really had to train my kids that when i say something i mean it. like if i say i will cancel class after one more warning, i really do it. or if i send a kid home after for being disruptive and always, always the kids are shocked. "auntie sherri, why?" i tell them, "you don't joke with auntie sherri". as i hear myself, i laugh inside. but it must be hard for them. i wonder what age they stop believing adults? i wonder what age they start doing it themselves? and they do do it.all i know to do is continue being consistent and doing what i say.
