Dear Parents,
This week, we continued to practice our Christmas skit and dance. Most of the students have already memorized their lines. On Tuesday, we went to the City Library, where the performance is going to take place, for rehearsal. It went well. Everyone quickly finished their lunch and slept well during nap time that day. Then, we watched the cartoon, Dr. Seuss' “The Grinch who stole Christmas”, which helped students understand more of the script, and how they should perform on stage. We have been doing the rehearsals almost everyday as the Christmas show is coming soon on December 16th, hope everyone can come attend.
In class, we handmade Christmas ornaments and hung them on the school’s Christmas tree; most students liked the gingerbread man. For Phonics class, Tops and Reading, we reviewed the previous chapters, and also worked on the ESL workbook and learned the difference between “I”, and “We”. And also learned the meanings of “forest”, “creatures”, and “grew”. For art class, we made Christmas cards. For Science class, we learned about seeds, that it can grow into a plant; for example, an apple seed grows into an apple tree.
