Our parent's teachers for one day!!

 

The baby triplets play with colours

 

 

We love watching cartoons in class. We laughed and learned with Tony and the baby triplets.
We could understand perfectly the colours, and we had to pay more attention for new words and sentences like: "sun, tree, strawberry..." "I will paint a tomato"
After all that, we made a fantastic drawing.

The Shapes songs

Before singing the song, we introduced and review different shapes. "The ShapeSong #2" practices triangle, rectangle, oval, and star, ("The Shape Song #1" practices circle, diamond, square and heart). We played the song in the background as we review the shapes with flashcards.

  

This is a super simple song for practicing shape recognition. It's also a fun fingerplay as children get to create the different shapes with their hands or even their bodies. It teaches useful language for making and looking for objects. 

In addition to shapes learning, we also made a difference between the two verbs: "make Vs. find" and we learned their meaning.

At first, we played with the song looking for the shapes in the class, after that, we cut colour shapes and spread them in the class. During the song, we had to look for one of them and bring them to our table. Once we had all our shapes in front of us, we had to rise the one the teacher said. "rise the diamond", "rise the heart"... Students played teacher's role and tell their mates to rise the shapes they wanted.

CLOTHES

We have had a great time today! 

We watched "the baby triplets" for begin, we learned words and sentences like "It is too small" "it is too big". The baby triplets had fun playing with mummy and daddy's clothes!

After that, we saw two more videos, the first one helped us to learn clothes vocabulary, and the second one helped us to make sentences with those new words we had just learned.
   

We love the teacher taking photos of us! We always say "CHEESE!!!!!"

 

Uh-huh!

They don't get any simpler than this. For a little bit of insight into the creation of this song, check out Devon's Blog.
This song is just a lot of fun. And for ESL/EFL students, this song helps them move beyond formulaic yes/no responses to more natural, kid-like responses. If you ask a native-English speaking child, "Do you like ice cream?" she will almost certainly NOT answer "Yes, I do." Kids say things like "yep" or "uh-huh!" So, while it is important for children to understand and be able to use expressions like "Yes, I do" and "No, I don't," it's also important for students to learn some of the more informal, natural expressions that children use.
This song also helps children learn the intonation, or the variation of tone, of English. Adult ESL/EFL learners often have a very hard time hearing and saying "Uh-huh" and "Unh-unh"...two similar sounds with totally different intonations. Children who learn this song get a quick lesson in the importance of intonation.

The wheels on the bus

 

We love learning while we play, sing, dance and draw!  

Our new vocabulary comes from the song "the wheels on the bus" we've learned some words like: "Wheels, horn, wipers, doors, open, shut, baby, mummy... "  and every noise each part of the bus make. The wipers on the bus go "swish wsish swish, swish swish swish" The horn on the bus goes "beep beep beep, beep beep beep"... 

We've played "the napkin" out at the playground using these new words instead of numbers.
Furthermore, we also have reviewed songs like "are you hungry?” " Head shoulders, knees and toes", "walking, walking" , "count and move" while we danced around the classroom and played with the chairs.

Here we have the video we have seen in class! 

 

Bye Bye, Bus!!!

WE LOVE COOKIES!

Les rialles es podien sentir quiilòmetres enllà. Pobre Ormie, el porquet que volia aconseguir agafar el pot de galetes que era massa alt, ho intentava de diferents maneres, totes molt originals, però cap no funcionava...

Amb les galetes com a tema conductor, començàrem a assajar la cançó “who took the cookie”, una versió anglesa de la coneguda cançó d’excursions “Qui s’ha pixat al sac de dormir?”  

ORMIE THE PIG VIDEO

Incy Wincy Spider

Amb moltes ganes i ritme aprenem noves paraules amb l'ajuda de l'aranya Incy Wincy. Fem el joc de dits de la cançó i a més a més ens fem la nostra aranya personalitzada que penja de la seua teranyina. Puja quan surt el sol i cau quan comença a ploure.

Incy wincy spider lyrics

The Incy wincy spider
Went up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sunshine
And dried up all the rain Now incy wincy spider went up the spout again.

Rock, paper, scissors !

Rock, paper, scissors!

A la classe de dimarts aprenguérem la cançó "Rock, paper, scissors". Fent servir la nostra gran imaginació, férem formes amb les mans, de caragol, de tigre, d’helicòpter i a més a més, jugàrem a "Pedra paper tisores" en versió anglesa. 

Diferenciàrem la dreta i l'esquerra (right and left) i per a què no se’ns oblidara, ens ho pintàrem amb ceres a les mans.

DRAWING OUR SONGS

 

 

 

Després d'escoltar les cançons, cantar-les, ballar-les, entendres-les... també en fem els nostres dibuixos. Ací tenim el tigre de la cançó "Eney, meeney,miney, moe" i també els divertits nombres que imaginàvem quan traballàvem la de "Count and move"
