KIDS

The last 2 days my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders had no classes because we had a "Sports Competition." It was similar to the field days that we used to have in school... except more competitive. So I found a little spot in the shade and enjoyed the sun. I got some great pictures.

It was about 80-85 yesterday, and about 75 the day before. So it was very hot, and the kids were dripping sweat. Some took their sweaters off, but most of them did not.... I still don't understand this. Oh well!

This was what it looked like from my seat. No nosebleed seats here!

This was the 1st day. LOTS of kids EVERYWHERE!

A few of my students who found my little spot in the shade...

These kids had better equipment than I did. They were taking pictures of the foreigner.

These girls were trying to hide from my camera...

This girl speaks very good English. And when I ask her how she is... it is always "I am very very good." She sat with me in the shade because she was "very very VERY hot!" She's awesome.

Hellraisers...

She didn't want her picture taken and was running from the camera....

but my very very good friend and I finally got her!

This is one of my 4th grade students.... I like him. 2 days ago I caught him dancing up a little jig in the hall when he thought no one was watching. Funny little dude.

I like this picture.

The girl with the camera may be my favorite student. Sweetest girl, and a really good student. She will be travelling to NYC this summer with her father. I know this because she tells me 3 times a week!

Some of my favorite students. Starting from the left: the half face boy's English name is Kobe, and he LOVES basketball; the girl with the crazy hat on is ALWAYS smiling or laughing; the boy to her left is notorious for challenging me to Kung Fu matches whenever I see him, I call him hyper kid; and the rest are just plain nuts!

Hyper kid next to me there. He's a cool little cat.


This guy was comparing his muscles with everyone. Then he pulled his pants up like Steve Urkle, and was walking around flexing for the teachers around me. Future entertainers everywhere!

That's it! It was fun and the kids were all having a blast. Those are the animals I put up with every day!

Thanks for stopping by!
