is enjoying subbing in P5 this week. Today’s first Reading lesson (“Of Mice And Men” Chapter 2) was awesome!
has published an article on his blog about substitute teaching, plus several archival items from the old BJP #2.
I’m at school on a Saturday — listening to the marching band practice while preparing to substitute teach in P5 on Monday.
I’m going home soon — four hours at school on a Saturday is a bit much. I wonder what’s going on downstairs — lots of kids singing…

Work Routine: A Photo A Day, Part 02

Work Routine: A Photo A Day, Part 01
Starting today, I will post a photo every day showing my daily routine teaching at a large bilingual school in Thailand from the early morning into the evening.

Chinese Sightseeing in Phuket
Yesterday, Timmy and I guided two of the Chinese teachers at our school around southern Phuket. They live at the school and don’t have transportation so they don’t get out-and-about much.

This was my first time experiencing a sauna but — with the encouragement of new friends Jit and Joy — I soon overcame my discomfort of the heat and learned to more-or-less enjoy it. At least I was in good company (on a very rainy day) and it seems to have...
