Jennifer...is that you? They were trying to do break dance-style poses!
UN, I think it's a combination of temporal and cultural differences. For example, it's pretty normal for students to get up and walk around during class, which was really strange for me when I first arrived.
Great posts! I'm finishing up a Fulbright in Jamaica right now, and noticed you had visited my blog recently also. I love hearing about other Fulbrighters' experiences.
Unfortunately, I'm unable to view the last video you posted because it's not shown in Jamaica for some reason. I do want to share something with you that I thought was pretty entertaining. This one is reserved for all the teachers I know ;) Hope you enjoy. http://avyaroundtheworld.wordpress.com/2011/03/31/the-nonviolent-method-for-teaching-english/
