One month ago, we started working for our open class. It was about the book “The Twits” by Roald Dahl. First, we divided the roles. It was difficult because we didn’t like the roles so the teacher helped us decide. Then, we wrote the dialogues and Miss Cami printed them for us. After that, we started to practice them, some complained because they were long. The event happened on Wednesday, October 23rd. On that day, Cami divided us in two groups to make the props for the play and finish the Kahoot.

k4 visited junior 5
On July 12th, Kinder 4 visited us and we shared the poems that we had practised for the Poetry Competition . They recited their poem which was about monsters and it was called “Monsters”. Then, we recited our poem which was about a boy who liked nature and it was called “On the Bridge”. In order for them to understand the story, we used pictures, gestures, props and our body to explain new words to them.
After retelling the poem, we did some posters. We drew, painted and stuck pictures about important elements in our poems.
Kids were very kind and peaceful. It was a wonderful experience and we enjoyed spending time with them.

On Monday November the 4th, we visited Secondary School and we saw many things about science such as a skull and a periodic table. The activity was divided into six parts. In the first station, we saw a boy that explained to us how the periodic table works. In the second one, two boys showed us a skull and gave us information about the ingredients of the tooth paste. In the third station, we learned about a type of toxic metal. In the fourth station, three boys showed us a match burning little b ll d h i d purple.
In the fifth station, two girls showed us a banana and told us that it contained potasium and zinc. They showed us a video of a person mixing potasium with another ingredient and how it reacted. In the last station, we learned about carbon and gold. During this experience we felt really excited because we enjoyed it a lot. We loved going to Secondary School! The Secondary school students explained things to us a really positive expe ting the lab!
