English Fun Camp Isaan Thailand 2009

English Fun Camp 2009
On Saturday just gone we had our English Fun Camp. The sign was incorrect which was very amusing for the start of the day; they must have thought we were coming last month.
Thai Students
English Fun Camp is for the little primary 1 to 3 students. This means a day of giggling 5 to 9 year olds, some very well behaved and others who are absolute terrors. These girls are lovely primary 1 students.
Thai Students
Two of these primary 1 boys are terrors, a real handful that can test your patience to the max in the class at times.
Thai Student
This primary 1 girl is a real gem, she is so lovely and such a pleasure to teach. Her English ability for a 6 year old is well ahead of her most her classmates. She has an infectious personality and if you are having an off day her face and personality can turn that around.

The destination for this camp was the Ubon Buri Resort, I will write more about the resort in the near future.
English Fun Camp Students
We had 51 kids ready to start having fun. There were 5 stations with foreign teachers, they had fun activities planned to keep the kids entertained all day.
Mr. A Ice Breaking
Mr. A launched into some ‘Ice Breaking’ activities to warm the kids up. Singing in the Rain was his choice of ice breaker.
Happy Thai Students
You think Singing in the Rain would be a little boring, but look at these boys having a ball.
Mr. A in Pain
How could it be so much fun? Easy… right! Thumbs up, elbows in, bum out, knees together and tongue out makes it a lot more interesting.
Thai Student Having Fun
See a happy student having fun, at the fun camp.
Look at Me
And Mr. Can wanted to be seen, here he is.
Mr. A Going Off
Mr. A was only warming up and soon was going off to the very popular Cranberries song, Zombie. Mr. A was going off.

So the camp started off with a bang, and I will report on how it proceeded and finished in the coming days.
