Dear Parents,
Well it's exhibition time and all of the students are finished with their projects and are ready to show off what they completed. Their artwork is cute for sure and I have a feeling you will be impressed with the results. We also went on a field trip this week to the interactive emergency evacuation center in BeiTou on Tuesday so the children could learn about proper MRT safety. What I liked about the center was that it was quite hands on allowing the students to become engaged in their learning about this important issue. There were some fire safety activities, evacuation drills for different areas of the MRT and a few games that reinforced these themes. All in all, it was a very fun yet productive outing and I hope more of these types of fiend trips can be made in the future.
Our in class activities consisted of the usual suspects, Math, Science, Phonics, and Social Studies. Because of the field trip and art week I just went through a couple of pages in each of the workbooks and we discussed previous themes from past weeks. Christmas is right around the corner so we are starting to prepare a few songs that the kids will be singing for the show next month. I want to do a couple of songs that the students and maybe yourselves haven't heard before just to keep things new and fresh so we'll see if you can recognize them.
Individual Comments:
Adam: As always it's steady as he goes. He is performing very well and he's got a smile on his face every single day!
Ethan: Ethan is slowly starting to get better from his little outbursts he had a few weeks back. Let's keep working on that.
Marcus: He's really funny, he always makes sure that the other students in the class are doing what they need to be doing.
Hank: Very steady performance from Hank this week and I am happy that he is having a great time doing it.
Terry: I hope he is feeling better and that the time off allowed him to get the rest he need to recover.
Patrick: He always makes sure that he is on top of his game in class and he is really self motivated during class time as well.
Rain: I need Rain to understand that he is new to the class and that he needs to take his lead from the other students in the class and be less of a distraction.
Paige: She was all smiles and giggles again this week. She really had a good time on the field trip as well.
Emily: Like Marcus she really prides herself in making sure she's doing what she needs to do and helping me make sure the other students are as well.
Joyce: It is like we talked about on Wednesday, I am slowly working with her on the day to day routines of the class and on her comfort level in order to break down her shyness to speak out. I have also engaged the other students in the class to start to ask her direct questions in the hope that she will answer them.
I hope everyone enjoys the art exhibition this week and whatever you get up to this weekend. I'll see all of you bright and early Monday morning.
