Jessica tries digging for sweet potatoes
In November, we went sweet potato harvesting with first-year junior and senior high students. Some students had the role of digging; others had the task to cut the sweet potatoes off the stems/roots. It was great to see the students working together and fully enjoying themselves.
I was truly amazed that the students were not scared of the frogs. I thought that the frogs/bugs would cause chaos and more students would freak out. But a lot of the students were very well-behaved and sensible.
Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience for me as I got to build a better rapport with the students in a more informal environment. Hence, I had a brilliant day interacting with different students.
