My father is a pilot

Today we started Chapter 7 "My father is a pilot" today. I asked the kids what they wanted to be when they grow up. One kid who is moderately good at English said he wanted to be a soccer player. Later in the day, when he was goofing off and hindering the ability of other students to learn (like always) I walked up to him and looked him in the eye. "Do you want to play for Manchester United"? I asked him. "Yes teacher" he responded. "If you are going to go to England, you will need to speak English." Then there was one of those magic looks in his eyes and on his face, you know the ones where you can tell the little dust covered gears in his head are turning and processing. He was an angel for the rest of the class. Let's see if it continues to work.

When I asked another kids what he wanted to be when he grows up he said "A father!!!" How cute.
