Guest Star Audrey King

Click here for me teaching awkward! There's about a minute of vid starting at 1:38, I'm explaining how to play a flashcard game to my fourth graders. This is from an "inspirational" video at our 保山 Professional Development Conference.

Best part is when Cody sleeps because he thinks a cat is a monster.

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.
