1A & 1B (and 1C) - Sleeping away camps in advance

Hi all,

This week first graders have had the experience of sleeping away camps in advance, as we have done different activities related to this topic, such as discovering new vocabulary, playing a gymcama or colouring a postcard, and even a little role playing (with 1A).

Concretely, we have seen several words that have somehow a connection with sleeping away camps. For example: camping, campfire, sleeping bags, bunk beds, free time, to miss parents, go for a hike, and so on. We have also made a postcard for you, parents, which is not finished yet, for children to tell you what they are doing in the sleeping away camps and how they feel.

About the role playing, last Wednesday, we joined 1A and 1C, and three students played the role of being camp counselors and planned a set of activities, and the rest of the class pretended to be just participants. It worked very well, and such three students had the opportunity to put in our shoes, and be aware of how difficult to dela with students is sometimes, which ís a good exercise, we think.

Bye!!!
