soccer

this boy thinks he's so funny, messing up what looks like would have been a really cute picture with some of my girls!

i played soccer with all my kids on the last day of class at this school. they had the biggest and nicest playground. at some of my other schools, trying to play soccer was like running through an obstacle course because there were so many kids all trying to use the field for different purposes at the same time. it was amazing how well they were sharing such a small space though!

however, if you look in the back of this picture, you can see some makeshift housing behind the blue wall. i don't really know who occupies this building, but i had 6 classes that day to take out and play soccer and the occupants were all there almost the entire time heckling me from their bunk beds. the cameras even came out. not the most pleasant way to play soccer with your students but i ignored them.

here is me all sweaty with one of my super sweet students below after playing soccer. he was really good! he noticed that the teams were unfair and volunteered to play on the girls team halfway through the game :)
