I'm not so good at this blogging thing.
So. Since I last wrote:
- I went to Tomioka City in Fukushima Prefecture to work for 2 days as an ALT at an English Camp. The students were members of the Communication Club at Tomioka High School, and they had a sort of day camp on a Thursday and Friday. I taught 3 lessons each day, and helped them with preparations for presentations in the afternoon. On Thursday we worked reading and fables, and on Friday we worked on writing and skits. It was a blast. The kids are really good at English, and they were a lot of fun.
- There was a while there where I thought I might be moving to a small town near Kyoto to teach at a junior high, but it fell through.
- Now, I officially have 2 schools that are mine. I teach at 2 elementary schools: Showa and Kanatomi. They are both in Tokyo, pretty close to the office actually, and I teach all the grades. That just started this week, though, so I'm still getting used to it.
I'll be updating my flickr soon, too. So look forward to it. Bam!
One shot to tide you over:
We ran into a Shinto wedding at a shrine. Pretty neat, I thought. I especially enjoy the mother's face in this one. Ha.
Thanks for the update! Glad you got your own schools- hope you are enjoying the elem. kids, and the location. The picture is very interesting. Look forward to more flickers.
