Door to Door Laundry Service

This is what we saw on our way from church to dinner.

A man is on a bicycle with a washing machine on the back of it trying to maneuver through traffic.

Funny Quotes from the Day

We learned how to write friendly letters.  Students had to write letters to a friend of their choosing.  These are some of the funny quotes from the letters.  

"I like your power Kevin."

"You will be my bffttaa ok" (Best Friend Forever Today Tomorrow and Always)

"I like cake."

Then we were learning about the life cycle of a butterfly.

"When God made everything Ms. Leanne what came first the butterfly egg or the butterfly?" - He is my philosopher 

With an Aussie Accent "When I was picking up my scraps of paper I threw my butterfly in the bin."

Gallon People and Robots

We are learning about capacity this week in math and to start we made gallon people.  The students really enjoyed making their person.  It also helped them to understand how many cups are in a gallon and so on.

 Asiya and Katrina with their gallon gals.

 Heizel and Diego with their gallon men.

Casualty in the classroom

Sometimes in a classroom in Indonesia there are casualties.  This is probably a weekly occurrence.  Today  I had to scoop a dead lizard from under a students desk with a piece of paper.  Once I got it on the paper then I threw it in the trash can.  Yesterday there was a live frog.  A couple of weeks ago a kitten under the computer desk.  That is a day in the life of a teacher in Indonesia.

SB13

Spring Break this year was in Australia.  Brittany and I drove on the GOR (Great Ocean Road) with our friends Matt and Rocio.  We borrowed my headmasters car.  We nicknamed it Great White.  It was a boat of a car.  Then we flew to Sydney to spend some time with my dear friends Brent and Kathy.

Some highlights were driving the Great Ocean Road, walking through the botanical gardens along the harbor in Sydney, spending time with good friends, and eating pizza with a great view of the Sydney Harbor Bridge.
