It’s a bit chillier at 54 today and it rained earlier too. It’s still super cloudy now.

The little helper (they write the date, we count all the students, they say what the weather’s like and then we sing about the weather and days of the week) in five years A, Héctor, was really slow so the usual starting activities took forever! We had like 15 minutes left after he finished, so I was only able to play a memory game with them and afterwards Ana stamped their hands.

To the four-year-old classes I read a story about Ellie, who eats all the Monkey Family’s food on their picnic, so Max has to swoop in and magic up some more. The morning class later did a worksheet in which they had to put on stickers of cakes and sandwiches and also color an apple and banana. With less time in the afternoon class, we played a memory game with the food vocab from the story.

2A started a new unit about Free Time and I introduced the vocab—listen to music, dance, watch TV, play football, etc. we practiced pronunciation several times, then I stuck the cards on the board and we played a memory game (I’m all memory gamed out today!) Lastly, I called up students to stick the correct vocab word by the photo.

I got to hang with the big kids (6B) last hour and we played this “game” where I asked questions and in groups of three they had to hold up the correct response. They had cards like “No, we aren’t. Yes, she can. Yes, I am. No, you don’t.” I was amused because it got really serious; they started covering up their answers whilst holding them up and tattling on those who cheated off other groups!

HAPPY WEEKEND TO ME!!!
