The Hill English School


These photos come from The Hill English School in Hualien. This intermediate level class of elementary school students uses First Idioms as part of their curriculum. The kids are expected to learn ten idioms a week, with a test on Fridays. They learn a few a day in their daily class.

The class is also running a semester look idiom usage competition. The kids are awarded a point every time they manage to use an idiom from First Idioms in context. That could be while speaking, in their composition work, sentence work, or anywhere else they teacher sees the students using them.

They look "as busy as beavers."

As busy as 'bees' I believe is the preferred nomenclature.
