For all those disappointed that Christmas comes but once a year, cheer up! Because I just taught RISE's annual Christmas lesson... yesterday.
Yesterday. September 2nd.
Christmas 2014 came early this year! Or maybe we are just super late to the Christmas 2013 party? I taught the kids about Santa Claus. I taught the kids about Christmas trees. I taught the kids that "Christmas is a special time of year when we give people we love gifts," which is a mouthful and grammatically incorrect. The Chinese English teachers at RISE were shocked to learn that Christmas actually celebrates a tiny holy baby.

To finish of the lesson, the six year olds spent forty minutes painstakingly cutting fourteen individual paper ornaments, each with a letter to write out MERRY CHRISTMAS. The ornament project took forever, especially considering its home will be most likely be a trash can.
WTF China.
