. . . . naming the kids.
What I mean is, sometimes you have kids in your class that do not have English names. So what happens when you have this occurrence? Well, you get to name the kids yourself. One of my new co-workers, Sean, named one of his students Conway, as in Mr. Twitty. I've named some Rhett, and Scarlett. There have been some family names such as Scarlett, Michael, Nora, and Anna. Others I have named good after friends like Tim, or Jeff, or even Hollywood stars, such as Leo, or Keira (Miss Knightley). I may have even named a few after country singers, like Garth, or Willie. I do recall having a Tony, Dale, and Richard, in one of my classes also.
I'll keep you all posted if I get to name some kids sometime soon. The best I could think of yesterday was an Alvin (like Alvin and the Chipmunks).
Have a good Friday.
