Every day I get a student to introduce a new word to my classes. I call a student up to my desk and I give them a piece of paper that has the word written on it in large felt pen. The student then reads a sentence that uses the word in context.
The student will then go over to the Word Calendar that is posted on the wall and then will add the new word to the calendar. They will then ask the students in the class to use the previous days word in class. Every two weeks we have a spelling test that includes these words and other new words from their exercises and worksheets.

“I'd like to start off by saying that my choice to teach abroad in Korea was one I know I will never regret! Footprints made it very easy to communicate with the school regarding details of where I'd be living and what I'd be teaching as well as taking care of my flight information. At the airport the morning we left, my boyfriend and I encountered overweight bags and extremely long lines at security, and we missed our flight by literally one minute. As we watched our plane pull from the gate, we just about lost our minds and any hope that we'd make the long journey we'd been planning for so long. We made one simple phone call to the travel agent, Claus, that Footprints set us up with. It was 6AM where he was on a Monday morning when we called in a panic. He said, "Stay by your phone," and we knew that he would fix this fiasco for us. Luckily, while Claus was searching for a solution, a woman from United Airlines was able to book us on another flight so that we would make our connection out of the U.S. to Seoul. We would like to thank Claus and Laina at Footprints for all their help in getting us to Korea!
