I participated in a language camp from Jan 5-10th. Myself and nine other foreigners taught about 150 students from all over Gyeonggi province. We each chose a topic and came up with a two-hour lesson, which we taught throughout the week. We also had homeroom teams that we were with everyday for one class hour and at meals. This is my green team :) I'm surprised none of them are making peace signs here because they do it in almost every picture.

I taught the human body. The kids seemed to enjoy measuring their heart rates and seeing how much it changed after doing jumping jacks.

Unfortunately I don't have any jumping jacks photos because I was busy doing them too. I also showed them how to make people paper chains, which looked cool on the windows.

We took a field trip one afternoon to a traditional Korean village where we all made traditional crafts. That's my teddy bear plant head on the right. I think this was the precursor to the Chia pet because supposedly the moss that we wrapped around the plant will eventually turn green and continue to grow if it's kept watered.
The village also had some animals in pens outside, including an ostrich, some pigs, goats, ducks, chickens, rabbits, and doves. The kids got a kick out of trying to feed the ostrich and running away when he got too close.

You could get right up next to him, as this student didn't realize he'd done as he tried to get a photo of the animals in the next pen over.
I had a fun group of kids and enjoyed also having girls for a change. It was a little sad to say goodbye at the end of the week, even though I was ready to be back home. Here they are again on the last evening while waiting to play games.

And here are the teachers trying to be like the students.
