Presentation Practice
This week some of our classes started preparing for their speaking tests next week. They are working in groups to make presentations based on one of our topics from the year. So far everyone’s been working really well together.
Pledge Tree
On Friday we commemorated 100 days since the King of Thailand passed away.
A monk came to school, and the children gave him food and offerings.
Recently our children have been thinking of positive changes they could make in their own lives. They wrote their ideas down in the form of pledges. They wrote one pledge for ‘at home’ and one pledge for ‘at school’. Everybody hung their pledges on our special pledge tree.
It was a wonderful idea and the resulting tree looks beautiful. It will stand as a reminder for our students to always aim for their goals.
Fun Day!
Today it was Teacher’s Day, Children’s Day and Sport’s Day all rolled into one! That means we had a really exciting and fun day. Stay tuned because I will be posting a photo diary of the day soon.
Take a look at this video teacher Nate made!
New Experiences
Next week P5 will start talking about new experiences (which will be a new experience!!) They will practice asking and answering the question – ‘Have you ever…..’
See if you can answer these questions at home –
Have you ever been to another country?
Have you ever seen a scary movie?
Have you ever eaten insects?
Have you ever ridden an elephant?
Have you ever been to Chaing Mai?
P5 will also practice using past participle verbs and the past perfect tense (say what!?). We use past participle verbs when we’re talking about something that happened in the past that has already been completed or finished. The past perfect tense is just the past participle verb + ‘have’ or ‘had’.
I found these funny cartoons on Youtube about new experiences. Check them out!
New Year’s Resolutions
It’s almost 2017. Can you believe it? 2016 has gone so fast. This week our students have been thinking about what resolutions and pledges they can make for the New Year. They’ve thought about small, positive changes that they can make at home and at school.
Check out some resolution ideas int he video below.
Now listen carefully to the children in the video below. They are talking about their New Year’s resolutions. They go to a school called Evergreen Mill Elementary. It’s in the United States of America.
What are your resolutions for the New Year?
Boxing Day Celebration
This year we celebrated Boxing Day. We had an amazing day. There was singing, dancing and our ESC students put on a great production about Christmas all around the world. At the end of the day everyone received and opened a present.
Merry Christmas
We’d like to wish all of our students and parents a very Merry Christmas. You can watch some of our children talking about the holiday season in the video below.
What are your plans for Christmas eve, Christmas day and Boxing day? All of the staff and students at SorBorOr are looking forward to the Boxing day celebration we have planned for Monday. It’s going to be great!
Merry Christmas!
Christmas and Boxing Day
At SorBorOr we’re starting to think about Christmas. This year we thought we’d do things a bit differently and hold a small celebration on Boxing day.Boxing day is the day after Christmas. On this day people spend time with their families and give each other gifts.
We also want to think about how different countries and cultures celebrate Christmas around the world.
How much do you know about Christmas?
Take a peek at how some families celebrate Christmas in Great Britain.
Now take a look about how other countries celebrate around the world.
What do you think is the most interesting Christmas celebration?
Start With One Thing
Start with one thing is a movement created by the RacingExtinction website. The idea is to make a small change in your life that could benefit the environment and planet. Inspired by this, I wanted to show the different things we do at SorBorOr to reduce our environmental impact and to reduce, reuse and recycle.
