C’ class: “Healthy habits” mini books

Since the book of C’ Class had some lessons related to habits, we expanded the idea by reading a mini book about healthy habits. So children had the opportunity to talk about themselves and to learn some extra vocabulary related to the topic.
In addition to that, they made their own mini books with cute drawings and sentences that helped them practice phrases about staying healthy.

English – Classes A and B1- “A Robot Craft”

Apart from games and songs, another amusing way to learn vocabulary is to make a craft.

So, with pupils of A and B1, we made a robot in order to practice body parts (head, body, legs, arms, tummy).

English: Activity for A, B classes

Plates used in … another way

Together with the pupils of A and B1 classes, we talked about parts of the face and about feelings.

We played games miming face expressions, we sang songs repeating the words: eyes, ears, nose and mouth and we had fun making faces with the use of paper plates and plasticine.

Have a look at our faces..

Some of them are happy

Pupils of B1 class, listened to the story of Nelly, the caterpillar, which was small and ugly but it didn’t matter because she had some good friends who accepted her the way she was.
