Grade 1
This week we worked on the book The very Cranky bear by Nick Bland. The students love his books. My intern has been little by little working with the classes so she is the one teaching the classes for the next two weeks. They worked on the vocabulary from the book then they did an activity to reinforce their understanding of the book. It was great fun.
Grade 2
This week we worked on the book "Bark George". The kids loved the book and we learned words like: vet, dog, cow, pig etc. The students then had to put the book images in the correct sequence to see if the kids understood the story. We then played a game of memory where the kids had to speak to each other in English. It was very cute!
Grade 3

week of November 5th to 9th
Grade 1
This week we worked on the book Pete the cat and his 4 groovy buttons. The students were introduced to Pete, the character of the story. He had white shoes but then he stepped into a pile of strawberries, then blueberries then mud and finally a bucket of water. His shoes were no longer white! Make sure you ask your kids what colours did Pete the cat's shoes become! We then made a Pete the cat craft to glue inside our blue books. The kids loved it!!!
Grade 2
We read the book "To fill a bucket". The students learned the ways we can fill someone's bucket (by doing good actions) or dip someone's bucket (by doing bad or mean things). The kids then received a page and had to cut and glue out the images and place them in the correct column: bucket dipper or bucket filler. They were really cute working on it!
Grade 3
We are still working on our unit on body parts. The kids are now given a reading period (of an English book) during English class. So please encourage your kids to borrow and bring their English book to school for class. Also don't forget to encourage your kids to work on the challenges found in their agenda under the month of November. Thank you for your collaboration.
