 |
| Students patiently waiting for the Gift Exchange Game to begin |
 |
| Carson (Mr. Close) keepin' us laughing while opening a gift |
 |
| Looking at Daniel's gift - scented candles with a holder |
 |
| Yuyo is the first to open the very popular elf slippers, but, in the end, she didn't get to take them home:( |
 |
| Entertained students! |
 |
| Saisha's turn to open a gift while others observe |
 |
| Hannah's name was drawn |
 |
| Kayla seemed to like her gift, but she didn't end up with it either. |
 |
| Michael's popular iTunes card was stolen a few times |
 |
| Spectators, some of who may have been planning their steal... (Glad Tim could join us!) (Love the moustache Carl!!!) |
 |
| Enjoying the finale of the Gift Exchange Game! |
 |
| The Teams listening to rules and directions before the Straw-Paper Game! |
 |
| Pearl and Alexander carefully passing their paper during the race! |
 |
| Paper Dance!!! (Ms. Irwin and I judging) |
 |
| The Paper Dance continues! Of the three judges (Mr. Close, Ms. Irwin and I), I may have been the Simon Cowell... |
 |
| The winners of Paper Dance holding their prizes |
 |
| Musical Chairs! |
 |
| Wei Jie is the winner! |
 |
| Saisha took second place! |
 |
| Bryan won the "Guess the Number of Hershey's Kisses" by guessing the closest number and took home the Christmas Penguin cookie jar with 268 kisses inside! |
 |
| Jirah won Topic Firing, but Hannah definitely gave her a run for her money! |
 |
| Jirah with her prize, the stuffed "talking" duck and Ofnilieta posing at her side! |
 |
| Elijah was simply chillin' with some toys (I couldn't resist his cuteness, so he ended up taking home the stuffed duck!) |
 |
| Wai Fung won the first chopstick competition! (I think YuYo won the second!) |
 |
| After a few of the students complained that it wasn't a fair game against Chinese competitors, Pearl (Filipino) proved them wrong and won the last chopstick competition! |
 |
| Group shots at the end of our Christmas party!!! |
 |
| It was loads of fun! I hope all the students carried that enthusiasm and joy into their holidays!!! |
