Okay, so after a week-long absence from blogging, we're back. For the last few weeks, we've been assisting the Korean Kindergarten teachers in training our little kids to learn speeches. The kids have also been practicing dances, songs, plays and other things. The payoff? They had a huge festival this past Sunday which we attended.
There were speeches. There were dances. There were songs. And Tae Kwon Do. And costumes and lighting and plays! This was the real deal... we teach at a serious school.
So shuffle through the pictures and enjoy the videos... and keep in mind that all the kids you're seeing are from the ages of 4-6 and are barely able to converse in English.
A shot of some of the kindy's at our school. This isn't all of them... but mine and Dawna's are somewhere in there.
The festival being set up.
If it isn't Alex Dimita. Her and Amy waiting in anticipation!
We can barely contain our excitement.
Darren and Shannon taking in the events.
Hani, one of the native Korean kindergarten teachers.
Mrs. Lee, the director/principle of our school welcoming everyone to the festival.
My kids! Getting ready to do some dancing.
And the speeches are under way...
And so is the acting...
They were pretty good. All the acting was done in English.
And the Oscar goes to... the kid with the black hair.
My kids in the midst of another song/dance.
The kid... second from the left... Daniel. He was Abbi's (now Alex's) kindergarten student. He's four. He's plump. He's so cute it's stupid.
Yea, they got some crazy lighting.
Wow.
My Kindergarten's doing some song/dance.
Chris's Kindergarten's doing the whole "I LOVE YOU BABY" song/dance. You must watch this until they get to the chorus. It's awesome.
My kids doing the speech I've been helping them with. It's funny... i'm positive they have no idea what they're saying.
Abbi/Alex's kindergarten kids. Keep your eye on Daniel (the chubbier kid on the right). It gets pretty hilarious when he's done his speech.
The little ones doing their play/song/dance. Pretty cute...
They even put on the most intense music show I've ever seen (4 year olds do).
And oh yea... live octopus... this Saturday.. FOR SURE. I'll have plenty of pictures/videos up for everyone to see by Sunday.
