I picked up Song at on Thursday at CIES and took her to The
Bark where we had lunch and a grammar lesson. Song remarked that The Bark was “very
American” and that the tofu in her Bahn Mi sandwich was different than what she
usually ate in South Korea. Song had requested that I teach her about the use
of “S,” and I assumed that she meant the creation of plural and possessive
nouns. Knowing Song’s interest in nature, I created a grammar lesson wherein
Song and I went over six rules for forming plurals in English and then looked
at pictures of plants and animals indigenous to Florida. I hoped that Song
would find it exciting to learn the singular and plural names of animals that
she might see when exploring some of Tallahassee’s natural wonders. Unfortunately,
Song and I had a miscommunication; she already knew how to make basic plurals! However,
she did learn a few new rules and the names of several animals, so I consider
the lesson a success.
