class pictures

the last day of class, instead of having exams (shh! don't tell!), i returned the students' artwork from the past year and recognized one student from each class who did exceptional work.
it was nice to have a final chance to say goodbye to all of the students.

this is p3, the youngest class i taught this year. this class is energetic and enthusiastic, and there is such a broad range of talent and personalities in this class.

this is p4. this class was a challenge. it was my biggest class, and some of my worst troublemakers were in this class, leading to a couple of fistfights and lots of drama. but they're all sweet kids at heart!

p5 had a couple of very talented artists. this was a class that had a lot of creativity.

p6. my smallest class, always made even smaller by the extreme truancy of most of the students. i often had only two or three kids show up for class. frustrating, but i got to spend extra time with those two or three kids who did come, and we had some great times. the one-on-one attention with them was wonderful.

jhs prep. it amazes me when i look back at this class when i first came. they were so young and immature, but this year i've watched the whole class grow up and become some of the new leaders of the school.

jhs 1. these kids are jokesters. the boys especially just liked to goof off (can you tell by the calabash on their heads?). despite that, they were very hardworking and made some great stuff.

jhs 2 also is a class that amazes me when i think of how much these kids have matured. enock, the third from the left, used to run away and refuse to attend class when i first came. now, he's one of the best and hardest working. they are the oldest jhs class now, and they act it.
it's true. i will miss these kids.
