Summer Camp + Stacie's arrival

The summer is hot and humid here, but not as hot as the recent heatwave in the American Northeast.  My friend Stacie came to visit me for a few weeks.  While I am dreading this weather, for her, it is a pleasant break from 100+ degree days in Philly.

In Korea, students go to school almost the entire year.  The students' "summer vacation" is nothing more than a change in their schedules and a slight decline in their workload.  For me, my job was to create a small 2-week unit for the students who wished to work on their English.  My class included games, cooking, mystery reading and writing, music, and a Disney movie.  

My afternoon class only had a handful of students.  The students were 2nd graders, a nice change from my 1st graders.  At night, I would go to the school dormitory and have conversations with the students.  




Stacie is a guacamole expert.
