A Glimpse Inside Laura Teacher's Class

As a new semester begins, classes are being moved around and unfortunately I will be losing one of my favorite classes to another teacher. My "Basic 3" class of 2nd/3rd graders has been such a positive part of my experience in Korea. They are quick learners and extremely kind and funny. I have been teaching them how to sign the alphabet in ASL to help improve their spelling, so please check out the video below of the class showing off what they learned.






This is a picture of the wall behind my desk. Thanks to Aunt Beth for sending the comics!










This student, Michael, really caught on to learning how to sign the alphabet.

McCoKorea August Hibernation




My gosh! Has it really almost been a month since our last update? We are almost finished with August Intensives (working 9am-8pm M-F), so we should be getting back to our usual, slightly less sporadic posting schedule very soon.
