On the ice skating rink at the Sports Center! :-)
Instead of teaching....we skated! ;-)
So it's one of the last Fridays of the school year and also happens to be club activity day because exams finished yesterday! Lucky for me I got to go ice skating with Summer and Ari's class for the club activity! While we were at the skating rink they made an announcement that it was snowing outside. Much like Texas, Changwon doesn't see snow very often so even the little bit that was falling was kind of a big deal. It wasn't until we went to leave the building to go back to the middle school that it really started to fall!!! It was fantastic! It was such a pretty site. I left something at my house so I took a taxi instead of riding the bus with the students and when I got home this is what it looked like!
When I went back to school the whole school and streets were covered in it! (I live 5 minutes by taxi to my school!) It was amazing! When I got back to school my students were waiting and ready to play! They were so so so cute! Some of them have only seen snow one or two times before (like my Texas students) so their eyes were all lit up and they were so sweet!! The following are pictures of my 3rd grade students (9th grade) and these girls are secretly my favorite students and I am so sad they will be going to high school....Marilyn if you are reading this it was like our 8th grade group our first year!
My lovely 3rd grade girls! I will really miss them! :-(
This girl threw the first snowball! :-)
"Look Teacher! SNOW!!! :-)"
The boys still playing soccer despite the freezing temperature and snow!
With my 3rd graders...the one next to me in the back is the snow ball fight starter!
Showing me their snowman! ;-) They even put it in the freezer for tomorrow~
Summer, Ari and I with the girls after the fight! :-)
The one in the picture by herself threw the first snowball at me! It started an all out war....even with the boys! It ended with me and Ari teaming up to shove snow in her face....after she had put some down our backs!! :-) It was really fun and it was fun to be able to do that with our students!! :-)
I have really gotten close with my students at Bonggok middle school and I am so happy that I stayed another year here. The atmosphere at this school is really great and it makes me really look forward to my Thursday and Fridays!
This weekend should be fun! I am excited to relax and so some baking and cooking. I am teaching how to make pizza as my club activity for my adult winter program so I thought I would try it out this weekend to see how it works! :-)
It is also my week at church to teach sunday school. I am so excited because Kelly is going to teach with me and her and I are making christmas cards to let the kids decorate for their parents! I think they will really love it!
Also, I had my weigh in today and I have lost 1kg in two weeks! That means I have lost about 2.2 lbs! This is a start! I also now have a bet going with a friend to lose 15lbs by feb 22nd. If I lose I owe 50,000 won so I have to keep pushing towards the goal! ;-) I hope everyone at home has a nice warm weekend! (jealous of that weather right now)
