Catch up Pictures

 

This is one view from the inside of the Motorbike parking garage at the mall. When you hear tight parking ---- you have no idea!!!   How they even know which one is theirs is a small miracle.  I am going to have to put an i-tag on mine so I can find it!!!

This was in all directions!!!

This is Sarah.  She lives in the building beside me.  She is in the same predicament this year as I was last year.  Many of her good friends have left and she doesn't have her "circle" anymore so she is hanging out with the new people quite a bit!

We had our unit provocation and my classroom was used as an event setting.  It was great to see these kids complete an activity and were civil (for the most part).  They were so excited.

The Vietnamese women were body coverings so that the sun does not touch their skin.  It is REALLY hot here and they still cover up 100%.

On my way to the movies on the back of Sarah's bike!

We had a really nice night out and went to a place downtown.  I made it until 11:00 ---- go me!!!

My teacher's assistant is Ms Uyen Vu.  She is older than she looks and she is an awesome help!!!

Fountain on the campus of school.  They really do have such a nice green setting.  I am not missing the monkeys.

Favorites -

I teach knitting as an after-school activity and I had asked to teach 4-5 graders.  They accidentally gave me 1st graders.  I was really worried about it, but 2/8 are now knitting and it is only three weeks in.  OK - they are making stitches....

I found someone to paint my apartment and to build a kitchen island for me!!!  It will be really nice. and I can't wait to settle in and hang things on the wall.

We have Monday off from students because we are getting professional development.  They have all PD during school hours ---- AMAZING!!!
