Gym Drawing, Science, and the Magic Show

Here are some more shots of my kids in "Gym Drawing" class... the boss and the Korean teachers cover the floor of the whole common area with paper and all the kids get to come out and draw on it! My kids loved it when I got down with them to draw (apparently teachers never did before I came, but I wasn't missin' out on the fun!!)... kites, fishies, and flowers for the girls, submarines, cars, trains and boats with the boys - I loved it too!





Jay absorbed in his drawing...

Daniel immersed in the drawing project... on the bus he loves to yell out random English words followed by "ga-ga" (like, Teacher-Ga-Ga!!) at the top of his lungs and then giggle his little heart out... I just laugh and shake my head, he's adorable...


This little ham is Eric, he's lovely and wonderful, and smart-smart-smart. He thinks all kids in our class should strictly follow all rules, so I'm currently attempting to break him of his tattling addiction

Aran is lovey and cuddly, smart and hardworking, and she's fast becoming teachers pet!

You didn't get to meet my Justin when I posted all the pics of my kids in the playroom... he's a darlin', I love him!

Sean and Daniel love love love me, but only half as much as I adore them


*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

The other day we also had a magic show (boss is quite the magician, he even swallowed a glowing thumb and I'm not going to tell you where it popped out of!) and the kids LOVED it... we made piggy banks in science class that same day (or the next?) so there are a couple of pictures here from the classroom too...

Sean and Becky hard at work on pig-design...

Miss Ants-in-her-Pants always manages to lose a part of her projects, you'll notice her pig has no nose, and it's already had a new back leg glued on because the other disappeared, lol...

Here's boss's magic show...

A couple shots of Justin lovin' the magic show with the other boys, since you didn't really get to meet him earlier...?


This is my Melody, who you didn't get a chance to meet earlier on in the month... she's very quiet and spends most of her time speaking Korean in class with my little Jay - she's very smart though, we're working on the confidence level... she loved the magic show! 


I hope seeing some of these photos of my happy kids has brought you a smile or 2, I know it has for me... I'm so grateful to have my job and my kids, they're joyful joyful little rays of sunshine no matter what the day brings!
