Christmas Party

Yesterday was another opportunity for me to take photos, but of course, I forgot my camera. You see, yesterday, at my other school the teachers held a christmas party for the students. In my classes there were English-speaking games, with sweets as prizes. This was repeated 6 times over, so yes, I held 6 christmas parties in one afternoon!!! The students from a neighbouring hagwon were invited to join us.

For the elementary students:

Game 1: Pass a jar round while singing "We wish you a Merry Christmas" (which I taught them the week before). When we stop singing, the student who is left holding the jar reaches inside it and chooses a slip of paper with an English word on it. They act it out/give clues etc until one of the other students guess it. The student who had to give clues as to the word gets a sweet, while the students who guess correctly collect points...and we all know what points mean, dont we boys and girls??? Prizes!!! I dont know what the prizes were, I did not provide them or wrap them, but I think they were notebooks and packets of pencils.

Game 2: Bingo 9-square grid, numbers 1 to 20.

Game 3: Simon Says. (the one left gets a prize).

For the Middle school students:

Game 1: Choose a slip of paper and make a sentence in English. Correct sentences mean points.

Game 2: Bingo 16-square grid, numbers 1 to 30.

Game 3: Simon Says.

There were plain biscuits, oranges, yoghurt drinks, waffers and chocolate-coated marshmellow biscuits provided. As an added bonus, carol singers came and sang Korean christmas carols, dressed in santa hats (which I have looked for everywhere and cant find!!!). I am yet to elucidate if they were real carol singers or just some of the teachers from the other school.

Of course, at my main school, we are doing nothing to celebrate Christmas.

Earlier this week my Gomdo teacher had yet another business propostion for me (though he gets more out of it than me, but that doesn't bother me, as he has done a lot for me, and I want to give something back). In exchange for free Gomdo training and free lunch everyday, I teach his 6 year old daughter Yae-reem for 20 min, and in the new year, I teach some of the Gomdo students for half an hour every weekday. Technically I am not getting paid, so technically, its not illegal... This will really help me save money, though I am still using taxis more often than I should.
