Gym Class

Date: 3/23/2011

The weather is beautiful today and Seohyung's Middle School is taking full advantage of the pretty weather. I was walking back from lunch and spied on the students part-taking in their gym class activities.  

For the most part of what I can see, gym class involves walking around the "track"/"soccer field." Sometimes you run...sometimes you do the chicken walk.  Always under the watchful eye of the Korean Teacher.

 There was a 2nd set of students who were busy jumping rope.  Jumping Rope seems to be a really popular past time in Korea.  Whenever I talk about hobbies or sports, Jumping Rope always comes up--which is just a little foreign to me.  (But hey, foreign country, sooo....)

Mostly they looked to be running through the jump rope--not really jumping in the middle.  But one student (last photo) did a little twist action.

And, as always, the waygook with her camera is spotted.
