The middle school I teach at had its school festival a few weeks ago. This is usually held over two days and entails the students being ‘on display’ in various ways (singing, dancing, speeches, art displays, science projecte etc), fun and games, selling things, food, etc.
I was involved in the English Speech Contest/Talent Show for the festival where I had to help judge the contestants. It was so much fun! I was very impressed by some of the girls: the entries varied from pop song renditions to speeches, poem recitals and skits. The funniest were the skits. I was also really impressed by some of the speeches and the poem recitals were also quite well done.
Here are some photos of my students in actiom: I was so proud of them doing their stuff – all in ENGLISH! Wow! Good Jooob! (<<< said with a US drawl!)
-
- Three girls singing their hearts out!
-
- One of my favourite students: she always has a smile on her dial and works very hard!
-
- This is ‘Amy’ – I’m sorry to say I haven’t learned very many Korean names yet. She is a star in my class and always looks eager and enthusiastic – the kind of student one comes to work in the mornings for!
-
- These girls were great: they sang a pop sing (can’t remember what it was: some old feel-good John Lennon or something) and used lollipops as microphones – too cute!
-
- The Little Darlings!
-
- These girls did a skit on ‘The Three Little Pigs’ – it was quite a hit. They worked the hardest on costumes.
-
- Audience enthralled!
-
- more audience…
-
- loving it!
-
- aaaw. those cute faces!
-
- This was after the English Speech Contest: students performed pop songs and dances in the school auditorium. They L O V E their local Korean op (K-pop) and imitate the dances so well!
-
- I especially liked this lot performing romantic pop songs in their animal outfits!
-
- These are three of my colleagues and 2 students (can you guess who is who?:)) They did a dance as well. Such sexy chics hey!
