The Muscles!

Second Graders learnt some new muscles the other day in Science class. We draw a real size kid and placed all the muscles on it so we can remember them! Per pairs, they made muscle labels and we sticked on the wall at the end of the session. 

Good Posture

Second Graders are learning a lot lately in Science! Last week we saw the differences between a good and a bad posture.  Then we all got backpacked and checked if we were doing it right or wrong. Such a lovely lesson that day. 

Young Learners are woke!

The Dolphins had a good time las week being woke up by one of their classmates. The Hello routine just made a turn and now students are taking care of it. One child each day. As they say... a pic is worth a thousand words.

Tongue Twister Day!

Third Graders had a great time learning about Tongue Twisters and practicing some of them last week. I put 50 numbers in a bucket, and each student had to pick one paper to see what Tongue Twister will be performing. 

They practiced and checked the pronunciation and by the end of the lesson they performed a TT in front of the whole class; on top of the teacher's chair, just to be spicy. 

Language Lab!

We were such a few the other day in Sixth Grade, so it was perfect to go check the new Language Lab! It is an awesome place where students can learn language in a different and more attractive way.

The task they had to do was to translate a letter I gave to them. It was such a nice lesson. 

Chalk Game!

Second Graders played the chalk game last week. It's a very simple game, but they love it. It works the following way: everybody stands in front of the blackboard, with a chalk and a tissue in each hand. Then they draw what I say and then we erase when I say ERASE!. They can be playing this for hours. I think it's a nice way for them to practice any vocab.

Popcorn!!

Second Graders had a salty afternoon last Friday. We did pop corn at school! Second Graders and I went to the kitchen to use the microwave. We saw and heard how popcorn is made and we learnt some new words: pop, white, soft, salty and little. We had a great time eating them while watching a short film!!

Good Morning Jelly Bean!!

In order to promote the student's autonomy and responsibility, I let them do the Hello, good morning, routine on their own...  The thing is that is working pretty good, even better than when I used to do it. 

Big clap for these Lions and Lionesses!!
