My maths class have been to teach 2G on few occasions this year. See photos. This helped them develop confidence, and also in explaining to others, it internalized what they had learned.
I have been using the mac books to work on writing. This has helped the children edit and revise their work more efficiently. The culmination of this will be a writing project where they will incorporate all the skills they have been learning this year in a longer piece of writing. In their composition they will use images found on the web to illustrate their work.
Examples of work so far:
Leaving
the nest
My first day of school
when I wanted to start kindergarten was fun!!!
First, I went to school.
I was panicking because children were speaking English so well even though they
were Korean. I was sobbing on the bench while my mother was listening to a
teacher talking about the school.
I thought I am starting a
new part of life because I am at a new school. So I reminded my self to be nice
to friends, not let my teacher be angry at me, and not do nasty things.
My class came out and
they introduced them selves. They talked with me, hold my hands. They were very
friendly. They also fought with their friends because they wanted to sit with
me!
We had a tour around the
school and my class. My teacher was really kind. She gave me a candy to suck
on!
In gym, we were warming
up and running around, somebody tripped me by accident. So I began soaring
through the sky and landed at the corner of the gym!!! My nose was bleeding. I
had to rest for the rest of gym class. I was really annoyed!!!
They were learning about
verbs and nouns. I already knew them so my first class was really easy for me.
When it was time for me
to go to bed, I said to my mom, “I think I’m looking forward to tomorrow!”
And my mother said, “I’m
really glad that you like the new school. Just be sure to get a good grade at
the end of the school year!!!”
And
I said, “ok mom, good night!!!”

Who am I?
My name is Juliette E. Des Rosiers. I
am 9 years old. I was born in Los Angeles (LA), in the same hospital as my
mom. Since my dad works in the American
Embassy, I have been moving quite a lot.
When we first moved I often felt homesick. I lived in LA for about a year after I was
born and I was very adjusted to a routine, then we moved to Belgium for three,
next Romania for two, after that, LA for another, and now here. I am fluent in English, I know quite a lot of
French, and I a couple words of Spanish and Romanian.
My mom was born and grew up in LA. Her grandparents are Croatian though. She has a brother and a sister. She moved to Austin, TX and married my
dad. I am not sure where she went to
college, but I know she lived in Paris at one time. She calls Texas home for some reason. My dad
was also born in California, but when he was still a baby his family moved to
Houston, TX. He grew up in Texas, so he
calls it home. He has two brothers. My
mom’s dad is part Croatian and American.
Her mother is American. My dad’s
father is American and French-Canadian and his mother is part Irish.
I am most comfortable in California, so
I consider it my real home. This is
because I was born there and most of my family lives there. I still call the places I recently lived
‘home’. I am mostly from America, but I
have a little bit of Irish and French in me from my grandparents.
Because I feel comfortable in
California, I prefer to live there. I
support three sports teams, the Texas Longhorns, Dodgers, and Lakers. I root for the Dodgers and Lakers because they
are the LA sports teams. Since my parents root for the Texas Longhorns, I do
to.
When I grow up I want to live in the
countryside outside of LA. I want to open a resort dedicated to Laura Ingalls
Wilder during the summer and teach during the school year!
That’s
All Folks!
