I am trying to get them to write in the correct tense and to write complete sentences.

The gist of the assignment is that they pick a character and they each write what the character did on a given day of the week. One girl was assigned Monday, one Tuesday, etc.. I had the first class write a story with me as the main character, and the second class had Kip as the character. What they came up with was so good I just had to post it!
The following is the first story:
Monday:
Tara ate pizza, hamburger, and a lot of meat. She gained a lot of weight which made her very angry! She was so angry she saw Para (another student) and hit her. Para called the policeman so Tara was angry again.
Tuesday:
On Tuesday Tara buy apples.She make apple Pie. It was delicious.
Wednesday:
On Wednesday Tara bought expensive computer. Buy the way, Tara broke her expensive computer. So Tara was shocked!
Thursday:
On Thursday Tara met many friends in Korea. Tara and her friends drink beer. They sing and dance. And they went to the beach. They ate a shark.They slept on the beach. This made policeman angry. So Tara hit the policeman. She went to jail.
I couldn't make this stuff up!!!!
Kip's story:
On Monday Kip went to the Gyong Gue and ate Ice cream and Snack. He was mad so he slept at a hotel.
On Tuesday he went to the swimming pool. He met his girlfriend. They ate pizza. He is very happy.
On Wednesday Kip went to the bar. He drank Liquor. Then he gets fired. He despairs.
On Thursday Kip went to Ulsan Stadium. He ate ice cream and candy. He took bicycle and skate. He was so very happy.
On Friday Kip went to the internet cafe. He play computer game and then he finished. He meet his friends. They drink Soju. They get drunk. Then he eat spaghetti. He gives his money to the clerk. Then he goes to the park. He plays game and exercise.
My kids rock!!
And on the "park" note- here are some pics of the park in front of the Hyundai Department store. It is really beautiful:


Here is one of the Football game we went to on Saturday which was played in the stadium that held the 2002 World Cup. It was pretty amazing:

And lastly- We had dinner at a "Western" restaurant which only serves fried chicken and pickles. Yessiree- Koreans serve pickles with anything they consider American- even pizza! Well this place had some pretty fantastic decor, an example of which is below :-)

I know you are all probably dying for one of these sexy men in your living room, so I will see what I can do! ;-)

i assume that by "football" y'all mean what us (less cosmopolitan) american folks understand as soccer. :) looks like a great time, either way.
blog's a terrific idea.
