I WISH I had the capability (And S-M-R-Ts) to put these things up but i swear, some of my kinds do the COOL sheet!

Be it some really intense picture of "your future house" or a cool cartoon doodle they drew on the desk.... or some nakidb0obystar pictures.

I want to see what sorta talent is hidden deep within the bowels of your school.
(hopefully SOMEONE knows how to do it!

All I have are memories of what my kids drew. I don't have examples.

However, some of what they drew on the backs of their test papers were very interesting. They drew some very amusing pictures of ME. Some were much, much too detailed.

I have to wonder what their parents will think when they see some of their images of me. I also have to wonder how they learn about some of the things they draw. They're, well, shall we say lewd?

My students are great at doing anime characters but for anything else about all they can do is copy. They're good at making excellent copies of things, but don't have a great deal of originality.

One exception was a middle-school boy when I taught hogwan. He could draw anything in no time. Once for fun at the end of the lesson I asked him and the other boys to draw the stupidist monkey they could. In two minutes he came up with a gorilla holding a curved snake about to bite him with the caption 'a banana? It tastes strange!' He'd make a great illustrator of children's books.

The first year I was here, one of my students brought her cute little ���� to class.
Her �� �� drew this picture of me.
I like it so much, I use it as a signature.

Here is my portrait as rendered by a 4-year-old kindergarten student
and here is my photograph.



The portrait drawn by the 4-year-old is more flattering, don't you think?

I had a student who was very creative. She drew all class long, which was fine with me as she didn't need my class anyway. My favorite picture she drew was a Korean spin on Snow White, with the dwarves represented as dolls hanging from a string.

Yesterday, one of the projects in our book was to draw a special day and write how you felt about it. One kid drew a soccer player scoring a goal past a bearded goalie. The picture was covered with taegukgi. The student's neighbor asked in Korean who the goalie was. He answered it was a foreigner.

I looked at him incredulously, "The beard means he's a foreigner?"

Khyber, is this thread open to works of musical creativity, too?

Would you believe, one of my students was writing a musical composition when she was supposed to be listening to me. When I confiscated it, I found that it fit perfectly with the current lesson on occupations. So I set the words "astronaut" and "movie star" to the melody and passed it out in class the next day.
