Packed and ready to go!

Tomorrow I will be leaving for Chiba to spend the night before we head to the airport early on Thursday morning for Korea! I will go up tomorrow night and spend the night at a friend's place and then we will all go to Narita where the adventures will begin! I have my stuff all packed and ready to go...now just time for me to get to the airport and wait for my work day to be over tomorrow!

Today was another day at the elementary schools around my area. In the morning, I visited one school where I taught the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade. We are still in the first stages of the textbook at this school so it was just the introductory lesson for them today. For the 3rd and 4th grade, I taught them how to say, "How's the weather today?" and they learned how to answer with 9 different ways to answer. Those included the basics such as "It's Sunny, cloudy, rainy, windy, stormy, snowy, hot, cold, and foggy!" It was a fun day. The 3rd graders are an energetic bunch and all love English class! It's fun, but takes a lot of energy as well! There are 24 of them so it's a lot of energy to keep control of. It's a fun time, though. They are all very funny and they all absolutely love the games and the fun times. At the end of class, they also wanted me to sign their cases for their recorders! They all lined up for me to sign it and they also had their notebooks open for me to sign. Haha! I felt like a celebrity! They're too funny!

Nothing too much else to report for today. In the afternoon I finished the afternoon off at a different school where I taught the 5th and 6th graders. They're a good bunch as well and all the students are smart and very nice. The teachers at that school are also extremely nice and always give me snacks or other goods to take home with me!

Tonight I just finished up some laundry before heading out and need to just finish doing the dishes. I will do those and get ready! Wooooo! Korea, only 1 one more day!
