For Thanksgiving, I thought I would mix it up a little. Of course, everyone is thankful (or as my students have a bad habit of saying "thanksful") for the usual - family, friends, a roof over their heads, etc. So, I taught them the phrase "taking [something] for granted" and wanted them to start thinking of all other things that is left out of the "typical list"
It is interesting to see the outcome of trying to get them to think creatively because the smartest students often made mundane or typical thank-you cards and the students that don't know that much English at all were actually very creative with their answers. Perhaps, the "intelligent" students have only become really good at the rote memorization that the Korean education system thrives on :/
I took a few pictures of some cards that had both creativity and good English :)
