My classroom yesterday:
It may not look like much but it's my home during the day.
Lee has two classrooms, one the floor above mine and one downstairs and around the corner. Unfortunately, he has to share both of them with other teachers so he's a bit of a nomad. At the end of the day he likes to come hang out on my miniature couch while I finish up my work. I may think about putting in a miniature coffee maker.
Today it rained. A lot, apparently, because at noon the mayor of the city closed all of the schools. I guess there is such a thing as too much rain, even here, where my students tell me it rains all the time. This rain is different than the typhoon rains because then there's a lot of wind. We should expect school to close at least once or twice before the typhoon season ends in October.
Rain days instead of snow days; epic slip 'n slides instead of snowmen?
ReplyDeleteThe sidewalks get pretty slippery. The hallways at school too. According to the weather page, Kaohsiung has gotten over 10 inches of rain in less than 24 hours.
ReplyDeleteWhat's with all the rain? You're not in the monsoon zone and I haven't heard of any typhoons in your parts...
ReplyDeleteI heard it's just a stalled storm churning around the South China Sea. In addition to closing early yesterday the mayor closed schools today as well.
