CRAZY STUDENTS, CRAZY TEACHER.

Today was my last time teaching my Junior High School third grade class. They will graduate on Saturday and I will be very sorry to see them go. They're amazing kids and we've had a lot of fun and done a lot of fooling around this last year and a half. At the end of class I told them I wanted to take some photos. Over here everyone always gives the peace sign when they pose. That's really nice and all, but I wanted something different. So for the first shot I let them do their nice pose. But for the second I said 'You have to be bad', and showed them my West Belfast 'Don't mess with me' pose. And lastly I told them to 'Be the lion'. This is a drill I do in class to help them practice their 'R's. They put their hands up like an angry lion and say/shout 'Raaarrrggghh'. This turned out to be my favourite snap and I'll get them all copies as a fairwell present.

PEACE!
BAD BOYS. BAD GIRLS. BAD TEACHER!'
'BE THE LION'
