My Students

I was looking at the pics I took of my kids when I first got here and I realized I'ma miss the lil boogers when I leave. I'm always happy to see them after the weekend and on the playground. They're so fun and cute and crazy. I won't missall the screaming, running, jumping and general phyconess of class but I doubt I'll remember that after a month or two. I won't forget the kids though. We played a game like jepardy so they had to say a category and then 100-500 level. Billy kept saying 2 hungry instead of 2 hundred and it was so cute. Jerry pointed it out of course and him and Mary made fun of him but he's such a ll trooper he kept going. Poor thing gets made fun of all the time cuz he's little but he tries so hard when he gets a chance. I wish I could tutor all these kids individually. Hoonki started tellin me jokes to start off our convos. He was tellin me Korean jokes and translated them. So they didn't really make much sense but I laughed and liked his effort. Today he told me ths one: What does a penguin drive? Alaska. I was laughin so hard! First cuz it's funny, second cuz only in Asia does Ka = car. I love Korea.
I started teaching them tongue twisters too. I figured it's a good way to bump up pronounciation and it's just funny. Anyway tomorrow is Peppero Day and I'm so excited, a whole holiday with no other purpose then to give candy. Greatness. Now if only Koreans could discover sugar and use it like Americans....
