Hello, everyone! This week, we have started a new topic, one of the most exciting topics for our little learners: BUGS!!!
After a very interesting brainstorming session during which we revised which vocabulary we already knew about this subject (Spider, Ladybug…) we used our Mistery Box to discover more bugs! Everyone wanted to tell some anecdotes related to bugs! Then, we learned how to say their names in English.
Once we had revised the names of the bugs and sang some funny songs, we were ready to play some games in our classroom.
I’m sure they will love to revise this song at home!
This week, we have been working on the topic of the animals and the baby animals. Also, we have been practising a lot about the English sounds and phonics, especially the long vowels and how to recognise them.
We read some books and we had to find all the animals and them, and be able to speak about them:
A book about ducklings and puppies.
We played some games related to the long vowels: lots of fun!
Jump if you hear the «long a» sound!
After all that fun, we relaxed a bit and got prepared for PE by listening to a beautiful story about a little nightingale…
Finally, we put into practise all our skills by simulating that we were on the beach and we met some new friends and had to introduce to each other and talk about us, our interests… Because that is, actually, the reason why we learn languages, why foreign languages are so important for everyone of us… We talked about that and understood the importance of learning with our HEADS, but also with our HEARTS. With our heads, because we need to make a lot of effort to learn, pronounce, remember words, phrases, structures… And most importantly with our hearts, because if we are not open to meet new friends, to exchange our experiences with others, and to help others to the best of our ability, then why would we need to learn a foreign language?
This week, the Green Class had so much fun during the English lesson!
We practised our communicating skills by talking between us and with the teacher about the animals, the greetings, the days of the week and the calendar…
Can you guess the word when the music stops?
We also spent some time playing funny games in group!
Finally, we went to La Vega and could put into practise some of the words we had learned (chicken, rooster, ladybug, butterfly…)
