OK, maybe not. My Christmas tradition is to give candy canes to all of my students. The kids love them. And as hard as I try to keep them from eating them before taking them home, I usually fail. I jokingly remarked that it would be fun to make them into reindeer this year. One of my coworkers saw pipe cleaners, eyes and little pompoms at Lotte Mart and bought me some. I tried making them with September class and it worked. The kids had a great time. So that night I went back to Lotte Mart to pick up some more. Of course, they didn’t have any more eyes. I ended up buying solid colored circle stickers, which worked pretty well.
All in all, the reindeer turned out really cute. The kids had a great time. And I had a nice break from teaching. It was still educational because they kids had to follow my directions, given in English. So yeah. It was teaching.
