Show and Tell

Well it's official.

I'm a Kindergarten teacher in Taiwan.

Kinda crazy...

Or as my sister says to me sometimes: "This is weird, right?"

But it's true. One week down and it wasn't that bad. A lot of little things to do, but nothing difficult...

Except the language barrier. These kids kind of just look at me in blank stares for the most part as I speak to them in english using intense body language movements. They get a few words here and there though.

The topic of my first week was "Water Ways". So it had to do with everything water. They learned the words snorkeling, scuba diving, surfing, swimming, and a few other water words.

For "Show and Tell" I had them bring something home that had to do with water.

It was very successful. One girl brought a water gun so I let her shoot me and only me in front of the whole class. They were hyper off that for ten minutes!

What they had to say when they came up to the front of the class.

Little Benny brought goggles.

A little bath tub with a pink rubber ducky. No clue how it worked but the kids were enthralled.

I didn't bring anything.
