On the third day of working with the kids at Bidhan Chandra, I feel that some things are falling into place better than others. It really has been a challenge communicating with the kids directly, despite two interpreters by the side. Another challenge I am dealing with is the introduction of simple exercises in general. Some of my kids are working on standing on one leg at a time as I time them. Other children are working on body parts that they can because the majority of their movement is disabled. Nonetheless, I have received promising feedback from kids and teachers for just a short time of participating. Perhaps its just having someone different to deal with that is the most amusing part of all. I have even been signing with the deaf kids for their amusement. For the first time, some Indian children are getting a look into a physical education.
