Camping with the students

The latest and greatest adventure in Taiwan was in one of my classes.

We just started a new book called P.J. Funnybunny goes Camping. So, I decided that my students and I were going to go camping too! Unfortunately, I wasn't willing to deal with those pesky Mosquitoes, so I put the tent up in the classroom.

I guess all those years of girls camp and family camping trips paid off. I actually put a tent together all by my lonesome. :)
Jessica and Pearl weren't so sure about the tent. They were the last ones to get in the tent. They seemed a little nervous.
Candy and Sharon were liking it alright. They thought it was fun and cool. The wouldn't stop touching the walls like they were going to crash on top of them! haha
Felix (who apparently thinks he's a jedi) loved the tent! Benjamin, although he looks bored in the picture, was just trying to pose for the camera. He said before I took the picture "I take picture like American!"
As you can see, Jeremy was OVERLY excited about the tent. He just couldn't control himself long enough for the picture. King, who loves his gang signs, ended up getting in the last picture too.
Here's King again. Haha He loves his buddy Sean, who really didn't want to get his picture taken. He kept telling me "No Teacher, I so ugly!" haha
I have a second class right after my 2nd grade class. The second class is a writing class for Junior High kids. I only have three or four students on Tuesdays. They jumped inside the tent before I had a chance to say otherwise. So, I let them write in the tent for the first half of class. For the second half, they got too hot and returned to their desks.
It was.... an entertaining way to end my day. :) Gotta love these Taiwanese kids.
