Stockings

For Christmas when I was a child I always had my own stocking that would be filled with candy, chocolate, and little toys on Christmas morning. This year we have way more stockings for our students than we thought!! The 英会話TREE family is really growing fast. However, to get presents you must be a good little girl or boy. If you have been bad you will only get a lump of coal...

Have you been good???

2013 Adult Halloween party

This was the first year we had a Halloween party for adults. It was a great time! Everyone who came had great costumes. We had a costume contest and we did bobbing for apples. This very traditional activity was really brought to life by the people who challenged to get the apple! It was really fun and we all can't wait until next year!

This year we studied marine biology for summer school. The students who participated had a great time!! We learned over 20 different animals and plants in the sea. The students learned how to make observations of those animals in English!! For the older students they did internet research on several different types mariene life, then they wrote a short essay in English explaining the life cycles of those animals.
