Hello everyone ! First of all
let us apologize for our late blog opening, we found some technical
difficulties with xtec blocs, after many tries we have finally decided to use blogger instead.
We were really looking
forward to starting this school year. Teaching is like owning a huge laboratory
that allows you to mix methodologies in order to obtain a smooth blend of fun and learning. Finding the right key to success is not a bed
of roses, but thanks to the experience and the kids feedback we try our best to teach English in a pleasant way.
Ok but stop talking about us
and let’s talk about your kids, that why you are here by the way... Firsts days
are always exciting for everyone. Some for good, some for bad. Tears live with
smiles from seeing friends again.
The first days with Esquirols
and Cérvols are a reminder of our rules. We have introduce a new hello song. Last year
we used an easy song which said “ We say hello like this, we say hello to all
our friends, we say hello like this” and the motion was waving our hands to our friends.
We decided to create a new song to fully interact with our pupils. The song asks to
students “What’s your name?” “How are you?” and “how old are you?” The teacher
randomly points kids to answer the questions. This exercise might seem simple
but it’s great to practice oral skills. It’s not easy and some still get confused by the How are you, and How old are you. That's why we encourage you to ask these simple questions at home, to have a practice, please find below song in order to practise these questions if wished.
