Turquoise class performance!!

Hello Parents!!

I hope you enjoyed the performances!! The children worked very hard on their dances and songs and I think the result was WONDERFUL! I was so proud of them!! Here are a few of the pictures from that night, although I am sure that you have plenty!!

Fun in the sun!

For a recent craft we made, the children decorated their own hats! These beauties are still at school but they will be bringing them home soon! Crafts like this are fun and creative, and a great way for the children to review some of their basic foundation vocabulary from the beginning of the year that we do not necessarily emphasize this semester. Plus they look adorable on!

Thirteen (13)!!

We have learned up to the number thirteen already!! We are constantly counting everything and anything at school so keep counting things at home as well! Everyone has picked up thirteen very nicely, especially since thirteen can be particularly hard to pronounce so keep up the good work!!

Happy Birthday!

Here are some of the pictures from the great BIG birthday day!

Opposites

Our work with OPPOSITES continued with learning about HARD and SOFT, WET and DRY, and CLEAN and DIRTY. We used tactile methods to learn about both hard/soft and wet/dry. You can practice at home by touching different objects and asking whether they are wet or dry, or hard or soft. To learn about hard and soft, we made soft sheep and hard brick walls:)

Parts of the House

In April we learned about different rooms in the house and the objects that you find in them! We covered BATHROOM, BEDROOM, KITCHEN, and GARDEN. We also learned the phrase "May I go to the bathroom?" so that the children will get used to using longer sentences in English. It will be slow, but it is building off of their vocabulary so it will be a progression. Everyone has even started using the phrase already, they are quick learners!
Here of some pictures from our lessons about the parts of the home!

In the KITCHEN making oven mitts for HOT food!

Learning about the GARDEN and the plants and trees you find there!
