To see where my student's writing skills are I had them write a page about what they did over the summer. To get an idea of the kind of life my students lead, here are some excerpts from the lovelies in Five Orange:
*To begin the summer, my father gave me 1,000 KD (Kuwaiti Dinar, about US$4,000) for passing fourth grade.
*Next I went to Santorini, Greece. Our hotel room had two floors and our own jacuzzi.
*I flew to Malaysia on business class for the summer.
*This summer I went to New York, Florida, Texas, and London
*I went to Sant Tropez. It wasn't fun. I went to Monte Carlo-it was fun.
*In July I went to Paris, then to London.
*I stayed at the Waldorf Hotel in New York for some of my vacation, before I went to Los Angeles and met Hulk Hogan.
*I visited Disneyland twice and Disney World over the break.
Monday is a special holiday in Kuwait, Gurgiyan. Check back Tuesday for a Gurgiyan description and pictures!
