So, I am finally going to finish up writing about my country school's festival. The afternoon held more performances--but they were student led (not teacher led).
The first show after lunch was a jump rope exhibit. Have you ever seen some good jump roping? No, well go YouTube it--they are pretty fun. Apparently some of my grade 2 students actually won a state (province)-wide jump roping contest in Jeonju the week before! When I heard this, it made me take ALOT of pictures. They were pretty good!
I even took some movies!
After that, we got to the music portion of the day.
They basically hooked up a Karaoke machine and the students had signed up to sing. They DID step it up by having teachers play both a saxophone and the drums. All the students were good, with some really exceptional ones every once and a while. It was fun to watch--if not SUPER load.

| There were some very good guitarists. They really liked the black skinny jeans, black button-up shirt, red tie and gel-ed hair look. |
 |
| The difference between having a small school and large school--small schools can turn into an authentic concert scene. Jumping, yelling, arms thrown in the air...it was a hey-day. |
 |
| Some students were not as interested in the music...they played games on their cell phones! |
It was very loud, but I enjoyed it. By 3.30 I was ready to go home, listen to some silence, and think about my funny students.
The next time I would come to school, I would have to be actually teaching, so I enjoyed getting to know my students in a relaxed manner!
