Why do I bother?


Sometimes being an ALT gets beyond frustrating! Today my supervisor at one of my schools gave me a talking to because I dared to do a fun Christmas class yesterday! It was the last time I was going to see those classes before next year and instead of starting a whole new lesson in the book, I thought it would be nice to do something funny and Christmassy! I spoke to the homeroom teachers and they agreed it was not worth starting something new so I had everyone make a Christmas wish list using the phrase “I want…..”

So, in short, my kids had a fun class where not only did they speak and write in English but they also got to design their very own wish list and use their imagination…..and today my supervisor is mad because we didn’t study from the textbook! ARGH!!
