Science Week 2016
9th December 2016Saturday School Newsletter- Dec 17
20th December 2016Kinder Class
Hello everyone!
This week we worked on combining a few of the different topics we have learned into more complicated sentences.
We started off with a quick review of the service professions (fireman, policeman and doctor), then sand “in front of, behind, between” and “do you like broccoli?” and played “where is the monkey?”. After that we played baseball to learn some new words; “station”, “building” and “hospital”. Next we played the mystery word game to learn the phonics and spelling of “next to”, “between” and “doctor”, before finishing up with a smartboard quiz on shapes, sizes and colours.
In our writing time we first had a bit of race to see who could write out as many comparatives and superlatives (Fast, faster, fastest, etc.) in ten minutes, then tried a difficult worksheet on service buildings (hospital, police station, fire station) and their locations and sizes (Where is the fire station? which building is the tallest?).
After lunch we played two games of musical chairs and then went back to work on our second worksheet some more. Writing time is proving to be a bit difficult at the moment for a number of reason, including the variety of different levels of ability in the class and it not being as fun as the games, songs and dances we do at the start of class. Hopefully I can make a few changes and stoke the kids’ interest in it after the winter holiday.
Speaking of which; next Saturday will be our last class for the year!
I hope you all have a great week! see you next Saturday!
