A Singing Culture!

With Norebangs (karaeokee rooms) on every corner, it's not hard to recognize that Korea is a singing culture! The grandparents class at my school sings every thursday, and teaching songs is part of the Korea-wide elementary school english curriculum! Yep, that's right... I sing in class! (Not just with my kindergartners... but with my 6th graders too!) I was horrified when I first started doing it, but it's no big deal now!

With that said, I thought it was really interesting that the students in korea don't do the pledge of allegience in the morning, but rather, they SING their national anthem! Makes sense, right?!

So, here are some of my 6th graders singing this morning. P.S. The boy in the front who looks like he is special, is INDEED special. :)
