Halloween theme & burst lesson plans

Last Friday was going to be productive only it wasn't; about to nail down decent prep for next week & craft the much required lesson plan etc. Instead, dragged out to tail-gun a second expedition to Nonomiya shrine. Interested to meet the the Russian lady again, especially as she now knew my name. Curious.

 Painted remainder of paper plates.

Today? Til one am repairing lesson plan for 16th (why all the fuss?) & then have to interpret bits for my wife as she translated it. FFS :(

10:20 Jim time returned. 

Used Super Simple Songs' downloadable f/cards

 pre-teach characters > gestures to Let's Go Trick or Treating couple of run throughs + CD = not a bad start. 

Crayon-on faces to painted paper plates eyebrows etc

 teacher sticking on hair/beard & silly fluffy nose. 

Ran 15 mins over, but not my fault; iLeader & Choriso wanted to

(and what does that imply about the point of a lesson plan & no flexibility?)

Oden lunch, ugh, and shucking dried corn. Typhoon again missed but my mum worried again from afar.
