In the classroom!

This is my class of Tourism Sophomores. In the spirit of the Presidential election, we had our own class elections. The students were split into groups and then had to come up with at least five things they would do to help the school, and then have a campaign for why they would be the best candidate for class president. Here are the things they came up with :)

Hiking and Shao Kao

One Friday afternoon my students took me hiking up Tai Bai Yuan, a huge rock/mountain behind Wanzhou and at the top we made Shao Kao which is like Chinese BBQ but super spicy. It was a really fun day!








Happy Thanksgiving!!

In my classes we had a short presentation about Thanksgiving and its history and then we talked about what "we are thankful for." Here is their lovely list :) 
-Parents - teachers - classmates - friends - family -yoga - siblings - country/China - community  and of course the necessities ....food, water and air.
