Out with the old...in with the new.

March 2nd was the first day of our new semester. I have a new group of Koalas...and all my Penguins have been distributed and split up. Penguins are no longer.

I think about how they are doing some times and appreciate our Penguins on a day to day basis. The Koalas are in Lala-land. For the most part, they are well-behaved but change is difficult as usual.

My new Koalas speak Korean. When I try to teach them new phrases like "Don't do that, please", they repeat that phrase non-stop. So, I think I will introduce a new phrase per day haha

The Koalas are not high enough to sing that "it's okay, it's okay" song yet...but I look forward to their learning more English.

In the meantime, I am glad to see all of the Penguins transition well into Planets (The new Kindergarten classes are named about Planets).

I hope this week will be more organized and that I can focus on taking photos of them interacting in their new classroom environment. I think my Koalas may have some good ol' Penguin spirit. *sigh* A new semester of fun and craziness awaits. Adios, chicos.
