Weather forecast...warm and sunny!

So today it started off with some rain, clouds, and thunder/lightning. I thought that it would be like this all day. But, it actually cleared up and turned out to be a beautiful day! The sun is shining and the weather was really really warm! Too bad I couldn't have been outside more today to enjoy it!

Well, today I was at the elementary schools. In the morning, I only had 2 classes at one elementary school and then continued on in the afternoon with another elementary school with 2 classes in the afternoon. I started in the 1st chapter for all the classes in the textbook, Eigo Note. It's really basic stuff. For the 5th graders, it's getting them used to saying, "Hi, My name is____. Nice to meet you." For the 6th graders, it's learning the alphabet. So we played an assortment of games involving the alphabet...karuta, BINGO, finding the letter, etc...

All in all, not a bad day. The kids are all really well behaved at these schools as well, so that makes life easier! Today, there was an aftershock again after having not felt one in nearly a week. I guess these will be going on for nearly a year....jeez! Just no break for Japan! But hopefully things will continue to get better and Japan will be on the fast road to recovery!
