Since many students are having trouble viewing the videos on their school Chromebook, I've attempted to find a work around. To view some Georgian videos, click on each of the links below.

Before leaving Tbilisi, we visited a public school. In #theotherGeorgia grades 1 - 12 are in the same school. So we toured several areas of the school and looked in on classrooms of different age groups. The young first and second graders were adorable and showed off their English skills by counting to 10 and telling us their names. I was also able to sit in on a 7th grade English class. The teacher did a great job getting students moving around using the language. Then at the end, we were able to join in and talk with students as they learned about different vocations. In the video below, notice the classroom. Students stay in a group in the same classroom for most of the day, but in the early grades, the teachers rotate from class to class instead of the students. |
