Every #morning I'm in the #camp and at 09:15 before the #englishlessons start I am #warmingup with the #kids I call it #morningparty and they it seems they love it! 15 minutes of complete #movement on #musicrythm, #dancing and #bouncingaround while #streching, #exercising and #jumping! And it's a vicious cycle. I get so pumped up when I see they are into it and then they are getting even more into the #vibes when they see me roll. It's super #fun! Obviously these are just a few of the #200kids we have in the camp right now. This time many didn't show up cause they had a long night but wait till you see them in the evenings haha. (at Sambata-De-Sus, Brasov, Romania)

April fools success stories.

Hello all! As a teacher, you find joy in the little things of daily life. As a teacher in another country you get to help expand students knowledge and understanding of different cultural events and holidays. Today, I got the chance to teach about 200kids the joy of a good April fools prank.

Details below(:

So my first class of the day was a group of 8th graders. We were supposed to have social studies today, but as I also teach them a transitional math class and that class was cancelled due to an early weekend, I made today be math class. This was funny if only because I am primarily a math teacher and am only teaching S.S. because my school couldnt find a new teacher for the whole subject. Add to this that instead of doing new material like we should have, we played bingo with the math symbols they had a test on two weeks prior.

My second class was a group of 10th graders. And before I get into this one let me explain what led up to it. My coworkers and I decided we wanted to switch classes to mess with the kids. I see 10S 4th and 5th period and the music and drama teacher sees 7S 5th period. Me and him decided to switch our 5th blocks. Now. When 10S walked in for 4th period, I told them "the school wants me to test yall, cause I guess I dont do it enough. You have an instruction sheet that you must read entirely and follow. Good luck" I reminded them to read the instructions 4-5 more times...most did not. But basically, this was a geometry class that had never had English statistics or a real stats class taking a test meant for a stats class well into the year. They only got 10min to do it, I collected to page and then went over the instructions with them. Where one read "do not do anything and you will get a 100". None of them listened heheheh. Then! Our international teacher department head came in and sent me to the principal. Where I "stayed" for 5min "having a talk". Came back in full blown tears saying that I had been fired and they had to leave so that I could pack up. (Mind you the boss man was in on it). So he led them to the music and drama teachers room, who the kids have literally never had a class with because he only teaches grade 7s and 8s lol.

Then his class came in and I started teaching them the 10th grade content. Mind you these 7th graders do not have a high English level if any in some cases. So they got really really scared. I only did it for 5 minutes though, then pulled an older kid to translate the rules of bingo and played that with them. Then! The 2 troublesome kids that always give the music and drama teacher trouble, I made go to the front and have a pretend wedding, where I took pictures and sent to their homeroom teacher hehehehe.

Okay okay. Then came the 9th grade class. And they were late from the class before mine, so I sat there "writing up denetention slips" for every single person. And they kept saying "no but teacher held us late!" And I kept saying they didnt tell me, (they had). Then I gave them the same test I stumped the grade 10s with. Same result heheheheheh. THEN! I told them all I had lied about writing them up because the teacher had told me! Their faces were priceless! I wish I'd had my camera up for it. So then I'm just talking with them because we do not have too much time left of class and I tell them I ordered a cake to make up for being so "mean". And this one kid goes, "no teacher. No believe you anymore" and so i show them the message of the delivery making it's way, it's in English so they still dont believe so I show them the other one in Chinese and the picture of it and they are like "!?!?!? Wasbi cake?" Because it's a western cake so real frosting and no fruits drowning it and its green ombre. And I'm like no it ain't wasabi and they dont believe me until they came back at the end of the day to eat it.

So all in all I got some great pranks in today. And even though I was so mean to my kids, I also rewarded them and everything is good and dandy. Now...how to plan for next year...😁😁😁
