Happy Chu-Seok from Korea!
September 30th was Chu-Seok in Korea, which is similar to our Thanksgiving.
On the Monday before the official Chu-Seok day, we celebrated with the Kindergarteners and other foreigners at our school. We all arrived early to get dressed in the traditional Han-Bok. After all the kids arrived (all wearing their Han-Boks), we started the celebration by making Songpyeon, which is a type of rice cake that is wrapped around a mixture of sweet beans and sesame seeds. After all the kids finished making them they were sent off to be steamed. Next, the kids (and teachers) played games including tug-o-war. It was a very fun day.

This is Sophie-one of my favorite students. Everyday she is smiling and happy.
