If you find yourself sending anything larger than an envelope, be sure to also put my home phone number. Somewhere on the box write "Avisar: (043)230316."

My classroom is a little storage room off of the cafeteria. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze in there with all of us, and it gets a bit stuffy since we have to keep our window and door closed due to our shouting and games, but it works. Teaching only 25 students is a lot easier than trying to get the attention of 45 – I honestly am not that surprised that my 8th graders, who have had 3 years of English class already, are at such a low level. It seems nearly impossible to try and accomplish anything in a language class that large.
Here are a couple pictures of my classroom:
Every week I’m planning on teaching my students a “slang” word – something fun that they’ll never see in their textbook. Last week’s word was “Awesome,” which we used in phrases such as “Jonas Brothers are awesome!!” and “Soccer is awesome!” This week we’re gonna try “What’s up?” instead of always saying “Hello.” Feel free to pass along any fun slang words/ideas that you have!
