NBA Championship

 

This is Tim Duncan.  He is my favorite active NBA player.  His position is power forward and he is 211cm tall.  His team, the San Antonio Spurs, will play in the NBA championship next week. If the Spurs win, he will get is fifth championship ring.  He could wear one on every finger.  ㅎㅎㅎ

1. What team does Tim Duncan play for?
2. What is his position?
3. How many championships has he already won?  

Mokdong

Today, I visited Mokdong, Seoul.  I had to buy some English books.  While I was there, I took a walk.  There is a really nice park and some very, very tall buildings!  The SBS building was huge!  I was impressed.  It was a very nice place.  After I finished shopping, I ate some pizza!!  ㅋㅋㅋ

1. Why did I go to Mokdong?

2. How did I describe the SBS building?

Snow on May 26th

This picture looks like my hometown in January.  The snow looks so beautiful.  But, this picture isn't my hometown.  This picture was taken in Wilmington, New York.  You may be surprised to know that this picture was taken on Sunday.  I would expect it to be 20 degrees there.  Instead, they had a blizzard!  Can you believe it?  How would you feel if it snowed in Korea on Sunday?  

1.  What happened in Wilmington, New York?

2.  What do you call the weather when there is a lot of snow falling?

The Pet I Want

Today, I taught a lesson about pets and animals.  It made me think about what kind of pet I want.  I think dogs are a great pet.  Someday, when I am older, I will get a dog.  In Korea, maltese, yorkshire terriers, and poodles are popular.  I think I would like a dog that is a little bigger.  I might get an English Bulldog.  They are awesome.  Maybe I can teach it to ride a skateboard! ^^ Hamsters and snakes can't do that. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

1. What kind of pet would I like?
2. What can't hamsters and snakes do?
3. What dogs are popular in Korea?

The Ramsey Burger

This is the Ramsey burger.  It is named after a man in Cleveland, Ohio.  He saved the lives of three women.  The city is very happy and many restaurants decided to give him free food for life.  He will get free burgers as long as he lives.  This one is made of certified Angus beef.  I think Mr. Ramsey is really, really happy.  ~~~

1.  Where does Mr. Ramsey live?
2.  How long will he get free food?

The Simpsons

The Simpsons are very popular in Korea.  I have seen Simpsons pencil cases, umbrellas, shirts, bags, and socks!  They are everywhere.  I wonder why Koreans like the Simpsons.  Is it as funny in Korean as it is in English?  I like the show a lot, but I worry about Maggie.  She has stayed a baby for 20 years!  ㅎㅎㅎ

1. What kind of Simpsons stuff have I seen?
2. Why am I worried about Maggie Simpson?

Tornado in America

A tornado (토네이도) destroyed a school in America today.  The winds were very powerful.  The picture is called "before and after".  On the left side, there it shows how the school looked before.  On the right side, you can see how the tornado destroyed the school.  It is a very sad day.
