After a long hard fight, I finally have a photo gallery again. I changed packages and didn’t break things into so many sub albums. So look up. See that link that says Photo Gallery? Give it a click. Right now, only Little Campus pictures are there, but over the next few days I’ll be adding Maple Square pictures. I’m even going to upload pictures from my first teaching job. Some of those kids are middle and high schoolers now!

Kung Fu Panda
I was going through old videos and uploaded some to YouTube. This is finally after getting myself logged back into my account. Something is buggered (or was buggered) with this stupid linking your Google and YouTube account. But I digress.
This is a video done right before 2009 annual presentations. These kids would be first graders now. I proudly present Newton Class from Little Campus.
Changes – Part Ee (ie 2)
So after accepting the job at the school in Pohang, but before signing the contract, I backed out. I don’t feel bad about it at all. Let’s just say they were playing games with money that probably would have cost me in the neighborhood of 2 grand by the end of my contract.
Please understand I’m not a money hungry monster. But when a company (and let’s face it, these schools are still businesses) plays it fast and loose with pay in the contract, it doesn’t bode well for what they might do while working there. I’m sure it’s a great place to work. But I’d rather be safe than sorry. Without going into details, if they had decided to take me out of the kindergarten, I would have lost almost 20% of my monthly salary. No thank you.
So I’m back in the job hunt. Ugh. The good news is Little Campus has asked me to stay until the end of June. That gives me another 3 weeks-ish to find another job.
*wipes sweat off brow*
So, I’m still leaving Little Campus. I’m leaving a bit later than thought. And I’m not going to Pohang.
Food Pyramids – D4 Class
Welcome to the world of D4 class. They are a group of 4th-5th graders. I teach them science, math and listening skills. Recently, we’ve been talking about health in our science classes. As a culminating activity, I had them make food pyramids on poster boards. Ignore the fact this is the “old” food pyramid. It was what was in their books. And ignore the fact that I really messed up when I drew the skeleton on the board for them to copy. I’m used to teaching the “new” food pyramid.
And here are the pictures I used. I’ve converted my word file to a pdf. Please let me know if you would like the original file. They’re pretty perfectly sized for the approximately 3 foot by 2 foot boards we had.
Grand Park Picnic
Once again, our kindergarten took a trip to Grand Park. The kids love to play there. The teachers love the relaxed nature of our picnics. There’s not much to say, so enjoy the pictures!!!
Planting Seeds
These are pictures of August Class. They are a group of 7 year olds in their second and third years of English studies. I teach them science and math as well as reading. They are a handful…
In science, we’ve been talking about plants. They been learning about the parts of plants, their life cycle and what they need. As a culminating activity, we planted chive seeds today. We’ll observe them over the next few weeks and record their growth.
Pictures for your enjoyment….
Blue and Kathryn Teacher
This is a picture of one of our 5 year olds named Blue. He picked the name. His new English name is David, but we all still call him Blue. He’s too cute and silly to be a David. I could see him as a Davy, but not a David. But I digress. This is possibly the smartest kid I’ve seen in a long time. He makes full sentences and has a very good vocabulary. Remember Korean ages are different. He’s probably not much more than 4 really.
He’s even cuter in person…
