I am an ALT to an elementary school and I take the train every morning. Every morning, there will be those long lines of students walking to school with the little hats. This school is my only school and I’m there every day, so I’m pretty much seen as part of the regular staff.
The thing is, I’m not sure quite what to do when I’m coming out of the station and there are lines of students walking by. Do I match their pace and make sure they get to school acting like one of the people who do that with the flags? Do I walk at my normal speed and pass them while saying “hello” and “good morning” etc? I’m just not quite sure what is expected of me-
