Today, at 10.10pm we have an opening ceremony for the English classroom.

Various teachers will come and see it, I think only from our school, and some Parents too. I've just seen some strangers walking around the classroom.

My co-teacher asked me to show interest in the visitors after the cermony. She wants me to look interested and not like I don't care.

I just agreed. I will have to attend the graduation ceremony today, which is over an hour long.

Oh well.

When the ceremony starts say

" Excuse me, I have to prey". Return when the ceremony is over.

hey there...


Sorry if this comes off really rude, but I've seen your threads around a lot. It seems as if you create threads about everything and anything. Hmmm, might I suggest you get a blog? Very Happy

You're right, but I'm lazy, I can't be bothered with a blog.

I've finished my time at the ceremony.

I like this forum because I can post as often as I like. Smile

What's inside the English room? I've got 40 LCD screens that prevent me from seeing my students. I use their normal classrooms now so I can see the students and better interact with them.

New tables, chairs, a mock telephone box, 3 new tv's, built into the wall, 4 new pc's, and microphones.

It cost 50 million won to renovate.

Take a pic! I'd be really interested to see it - along with any one else who has a photo or two of theirs?

Hmmm...Show interest...

I would say to my co-teacher, "I can do that. By the way...How do you say 'You're the hottest mommy in the class' in Korean?"

You should have just skipped it.

Just like orientation.

That's the allotment that schools typically get when applying for extra English funding; my CT and I will be figuring out our plan for the money next week.
