Good bye Jessica!

Hi everyone!

We are 6th graders. Yesterday we went to the city center to interview tourists. It was fantastic! We had a lot of information after making questions to the tourists. We really enjoyed!

Speaking English with Jessica

My name is Jessica. I am from Melbourne, Australia and I am 26 years old. I really enjoy eating sushi and going on adventures around the world. I also think that summer is a lot better than winter. I have worked at CIEP Pintor Joan Miro for two years.

At the beginning of every class I spend time chatting to the children in English. I get to learn about the countries they are from and about their lives at home. The chidlren also get to ask questions to me and learn about my life in Australia and outside of school.

My favourite activities to complete are creative, hands on activities where we create art. We also make a lot of video recordings and watch them as a class. Sometimes we go otuside of the school on excursion to practice speaking in English.

3rd Graders are learning about FOOD. After singing songs and watching some videos we have made a big mural with all the food items learnt.

Now we are rehearsing a small sketch in which we pretend to be in a restaurant. Have a look on VIDEOS folder.

We started a project this week to learn about animals and their habitats. We used the Amazing Animal Adventure book to teach us. We learned that different animals live in different places.

We learned about the habitats called the rainforest, the desert, the savanna, the mangrove forest, the Great Barrier Reef and finally, the ocean.

We learned about the animals that live in these habitats and chose one to write a description of. We used vocabulary we learned in class to write about what the animals looked like, what they can do and where they live.

Then, in partners we gave an oral presentation to the class about the animal descriptions:

Some of the animals we talked about were the blue whale,the fishing cat, the peacock shrimp, the clown fish, the scarlet macaw..... all of them are amazing animals!
