Reppin' the Imperialists with One Choice Fashion Accessory

A good friend came to 听课 and snapped these photos of my 6th(1) class. I love when people come to observe because my kids behave like little pups. Featuring my dearest, most beloved, functional smartboard.

This girl is so smart, so sassy, and such a leader. She has a better command of the classroom than I do.

That moment when I realize I'm completely unqualified as a teacher

TPR for "is"

These kids are awesome, but never have I ever seen them all paying attention unless there's a video camera behind them.

TPR for "tofu"

Kite Day

Last week the entire school went kite flying, and it was incomprehensibly perfect. The students formed two lines and marched up through the mountains for an hour, while 杨维菊 and I had running races, sing-a-longs, and foliage-collecting contests. She wove me a crown. When we reached a picturesque plateau, everyone sat in little circles and shared fruit and snacks, resting between their kite-run jaunts. I walked from circle to circle, accepting watermelon juice, apples, oranges, and bananas, stealing a kite or two when I could. We stayed all afternoon, until dinnertime, when us teachers whipped up some 米线.

Alright let's kick off this episode of Cribs.

This is "where the magic happens"

This where I get in work and watch Netflix

This is where I dry my underwear since I don't want everyone to see my underwear

This is where I act as chef and order my sous chef around

I've never used those purple things

My sweet view out the door

Yes those are hot peppers drying on the floor

That's it from the inside out. Got internets in my room, hot showers, starry nights, did I mention my sous chef? Nothing could be better.
