6th grade About crime,

With 6th graders we did many activties. We want to amplify our vocabulary and speaking is very important in the classes.
We played different games to learn how to put the words in the correct way in a sentence.
Inspired by Fornite the guys were very motivated to solve   the problem  .
Last week we started the topic crime.
We are learning the past simple in a playing way.  In a game where a student is blindfolded  and the others pass around some keys we use sentences  like;
Who took the keys ? Who stole the keys ? It wasn't me. Did you  steal  the keys ? etc.

P5 Emotions/Robots

Hello, Hello, Hello ..
How are you?

We have been talking about many different emotions such as ..
I'm Good, Great, Wonderful
I'm Tired, Hungry, I'm not so good.

In addition, we have created our own robots.
They used their vocabulary for all the body parts..head, feet, shoulders, necks, legs, and arms
It was fun to play with this idea because robots do not have emotions. ;)

Practice the video together, the students loved doing the gestures!

5th grade Who is the best ??

Hello everybody, We can do many things with 5th grade but moving and games they like a lot. So while  moving we use sentences like I'm the most dangerous, I'm the most intellegent or simply ; I am the best !

We made a cartoon about a superheroe as well. The idea  the following story to draw a victem who is shouting for help,  the superheroe appears ; ¨I will rescue you¨ ,then the bad person appears ; ¨No you won't ¨ and a final fight. Some boys were not in the mood for drawing so they used the sentences in a ball game.

"Dress up the snowman" is a crafts we made after coming back from Christmas holidays. Children had to discover clothing vocabulary and paint it accordingly, then cut and paste it on a cardboard and wirte the title and their names.

The aim was to remind words and expressions that they are usually in contact with at school.

Enjoy!
