A Day at the Parc........
Our day at the park started off by reminding our participants of their objectives including self-identity and creating their own personal profile in Darija. We started off our intercultural adventures by taking a nice walk from our CIEE center to Hilton park.
Forêt Hilton is well-used but never crowded. Patrons from all walks of life come here. The loop around the outside is just shy of 2 miles, it takes two turns around this loop, plus a little more.
The students reflected on the day and had a chance to practice their understanding by playing capture the flag and let say that thing got a little competitive especially that they were competing for Ice cream.....
They were assigned a number in Darija and had to capture the flag once their number was called, this helped them to identify the different phonetics regarding the numbers learned during class from 1 to 30.
The participants had so much fun that they wanted to continue and play 2 more games which reinforced their learning for that day.
Stay tuned for our next adventure to Chellah...
