START OF A GOOD WEEK AHEAD!

The sun is shining but the whole apartment feels cold. Woke up early at 550 but got up at 615.
 
End up jogging to the subway station again. 
School was good because I have one period only. 
Today I was invited by mrs Akiyama to sit in a microscope lesson on cells for the first graders. She knew I was a science teacher back in singapore. We talked in a mish mash of Japanese and English when we were at the tea ceremony club on the first week of school. 
 
The lab is smaller than the one at my previous school in Singapore. It’s somewhat cozier hahaha. We were looking at plant cells, chloroplasts and guard cells. I asked her what chloroplasts are in Japanese. She said midori, or so I thought if she understood what indicated to her by my rough sketch hahaha. 
 
So the rest of the time I used to plan a listening activity for ms hara’s class this whole week. Credit goes to the BBC. 
I’ll use my iPod to hook up to the tv set in the classrooms tomorrow. 
Which means I’ve got to buy the cable later after work. Bic camera here I come.
 
P.S. I did go to Otaru yesterday! Picture will be up soon!
