Official first language session in Puerto Breu

Our language session with Laureano and Eloy went really well last night. Just from this first time
it seems that Laureano will make a good language helper. Eloy is a bit more timid and unsure of
himself but part of that might have to do with his dad being there beside him. I went through the
material first and then Reb and Koleman did some of the TPR (total physical response) stuff with
Laureano and Eloy. This is where the helper says in the language something like "Show me the dog."
and you point at the photo of the dog. This was the first lesson of the BEC so really it was all
vocab that we already knew more or less. I figured it would be good, though, starting from the
beginning as this way it allows it to be easier for us and we can focus more on helping train the
language helper with what exactly we are wanting him to do. Laureano and Eloy plan to come back
again this evening for another session. Eventually, I will just have one language helper at a time,
but having them both here at the same time does seem to help them figure things out together as they
learn what the expectations are.
