Helen's school website



There's our Huan Huan in the back row..this picture of Helen's class was taken on her field trip to the science museum at the beginning of the school year. Another parent told me there were pictures of Helen (and me teaching English) on the school's website. I actually ended up using Worldlingo (fun site -- translates any language...its a rough job but very enlightening) and reading most of the web site. If you want o find the photos, try pasting this link

Then click on the second sentence, which starts with 大 三 (da san -- third "big" class -- refers to the age of the kids). It will take you to the class's website with photos and a description (in Chinese of course, but I translated it and it was very positive) of recent events, including the field trip and my English lessons. I was interested to finally see more about the curriculum, as well as the motto of early childhood education in China: "all for children, for children's all, for all children".

Neat pictures of Helen's class. Interesting that the kids seem to wear 'western' style clothes. Is this unique to the area or is it common across other parts of China?
Enjoy and please let Thomas get that haircut he so desperately wants.
Love, Dave.
