My kindergarten lesson this morning.

This is what I had to teach my Buttercup kindergarten class this morning. Keep in mind they are Korean age 6... so 5 years old.

Final Activity A
Once upon a time, there lived a princess, Sandy. She lived with her family in a castle. She had a father, a mother, a brother and a sister. She was an ugly girl.
But, after ten years, she became a beautiful woman. Many men wanted to marry her. One day, a man came to her castle. "Will you marry me?" said the man. "No, I don't like a tall and dirty man like you." He was so sad.
The next day, an old man came to the castle. "Will you marry me, Sandy?" said the old man. "No, no. I don't like an old man." He became very angry. Everybody was scared.
Sandy was sick in bed because she couldn't find a right man for her. Finally, a man named Randy came to her. He was young and clean. "Will you be my wife?" said Randy. "Sure, I want to be your wife." Sandy was very happy.

Seriously, word for word! So lets play a little game. Who thinks Sherry was happy about teaching this to her children? Who thinks that this story teaches a young mind a valuable lesson? Ok... I am teaching key word vocabulary, such as father, brother, sister, girl, man, woman, boy, and feelings like happy, angry, sad, and scared... but this story put together the way it was... oh gosh... I hated this lesson!
