Today, the Kinder 3 class started their English lesson by talking about their Obon week and then singing the “Hello Song.”
They do so enjoy dancing to the music.
Once sat down, the children looked at the days of the week, changed, and stated the date for today. They are getting faster at saying the full date, which is great.
They then moved on to the monthly vocabulary. First, they reviewed places in town.
Practicing answering “Where are you going?,” with “I’m going to … .” They then looked at activities they could do at the places. Running, swimming, camping, etc.
The children then split into two teams and used a fluffy die to choose cards, one place, one activity. They practiced the follow-up question, “What are you going to do?,” answering with, “I’m going to go … .”
They counted the number shown on the die, then counted cards. If the place and activity matched, they both got a point. If not, they played “Rock, Scissors, Paper” to see who got the point.
They enjoyed throwing the die,
repeated the sentences well, and played many games of “Rock, Scissors, Paper.”
They enjoyed a good win,
but the winning team had the biggest celebration.
The class did excellently, especially counting and passing the die to one another with a “Here you are,” followed with, “Thank you.”
Finally, the children sat at their table and practiced tracing their name. For this, they were focusing on getting the stroke order and direction correct.
The children knocked it out of the park today. Great size, stroke order, and neatness. A great job by all.
With their names written, they put the paper in their bags and said “Goodbye.” Everyone practiced very well and had fun speaking and singing. Keep up the good work.
