Korean Children

Relative to last night's children, tonight's were a delight and a relief. Incompetent at Dominos though. I'm not sure what the peace sign's all about, but show them a camera and they all do it. It's like a cult or something. At least these guys smile though. When we did this with an older class they all fell immediately into this 'attitude' mode: they'd do the V-sign and put on these ridiculous tough guy faces. This next little guy's name is Jimmy. They all have an English name as well as an unpronouncable Korean name. I don't know who makes their names up for them, but so far I've met a 'Jesus', a 'God', a 'Hungry', a 'Robot', and about a dozen boys called 'June'. At last, a different pose (possibly going for that more mature 'attitude' look)...

Thanks for the photos of the children Ry. They're little 'cuties'. (Bet you don't think so!) Will have some classroom 'tips' for you on Monday. Dad liked reading about the Domino wars. You had better start learning the language so you can understand what the kids are saying about you!
