The First Class

We started with introductions. Today’s emphasis was phonics. This year’s goal is for the students to pass the phonics test and start reading by the end of the day. We practiced how to choose to use “A” or “An” with singular nouns. The students had a great time doing that. 

We sang songs too. We played a couple of ABC games. During the phonics practice, the two year old student repeated lots of the sounds. That was a great sign. I showed them some verb cards and said sentences corresponding to the verb. The students had to select the correct card. If the wrong card was selected, I said, “Try again.” The three year old student is already familiar with the sentences. I think the reason is that he is able to read the verb on the card, because of the the way he looks at the card.   Today, the two year old comprehended “Try again” and immediately selected another card. The three year old student requested to play with his dictionary and find words. I was shocked. 

Today’s class was very fun ana productive. 

The Second Class 

The student continued with her test. She is doing well and understanding what to do. The test is matching subjects with BE verbs. So, far she has a 100% on the test. She will finish during the next class. The two students in this class are doing well. They are four and five years old. 

The Third Class

Today’s lesson was fun. The students are making questions from sentences in a story they are reading. I am very excited. I wonder how long it will take for them to just start conversing about the stories fluently in English amongst each other. I know they will do well. This class has two firsts graders, a third grader and a sixth graders.

All students are progress well!

March Classes

This month has been very fun! We got some new students. One student advance to the next level. In my first class the student is a two years old. He did a great job looking for the letters on a sheet filled with letters. His hearing is very good. He also repeats what I say with ease. I am so happy about that. He has started learning to use a dictionary. He enjoyed looking at the pictures inside of the dictionary. From the next class, I will put more emphasis on the alphabets and phonics. I hope he will be able to advance to the reading class by the end of this year. We play games with shapes and cards. The cards are action verbs, nouns, and adjectives. He is starting to remember the cards and say them verbally upon site. I am really excited about his hearing abilities. That is a great indicator that he should excel in the phonics games we play and eventually pass the phonics test. My second class is really cool. All of the students are doing grammar tests. They are doing very well. T...

This class has one student in it sometimes two other students come. They two students are siblings. The two older students are at a high level of English. They can make sentences with one word and the can make sentences in all if the grammatical forms in English. They think of everything in their heads. They refer to their dictionaries when appropriate.  The other student is at the same level as my 5 o'clock class. He just changed times.  This week we practiced making sentences.

4:10 Class Today, we played games and sang songs. We practiced saying the ABCs and phonics. The students participated and spoke. We plays card games. The students have to pick the correct card from a group of cards. They are gradually memorizing the cards. I think one of them is actually reading some the words on the cards. We also played with blocks that had different shapes. This class is progressing well.
