M is for Monster.

Happy Halloween, my dear friends.

In Korea, Halloween is focused at school more so than at the home or neighborhoods. Teachers will decorate their classrooms and have a party for their students.
This week the students have been running up to us foreign teachers, holding out their hands and shouting "Trick or Treat", expecting candy. I respond,"smell my feet" which just leaves the poor kids confused.

In my Phonics class we are learning the letter M.

M is the best letter for Halloween, because M is for Monster. And the best book about Monsters is Go Away, Big Green Monster!

We read the story in class and I had the kids color their own Big Green Monster.

This website has a great coloring template.

My kids are artistic gems.

Aren't they adorable?!

And that's how this English teacher spent Halloween in Korea- teaching my kids about monsters.
Not too shabby if I say so myself.

Happy Halloween, everyone!
