Day 8-More Reading Activities and Reminder to Bring the Books

 Hello parents, We continued to read through the book's text about how the Canadian James Naismith created the sport of basketball for his PE students in Massachusetts, USA, and how it spread to locals, students nationwide, and was also quickly adopted by women. James' wife was a woman who played the sport that he invented before they even met. While his students were originally reluctant to try a new sport, they quickly changed their minds and stopped grumbling. It's an inspiring story, and it seems that students are enjoying it. As for our homework, I told students that they have two days to finish it. 1. Write Week 3's Vocabulary Words x2 (#1-25) (Finish by Friday) 2. Optional: Chinese Translation 3. Finish the reading in Reading Street (Pages 30-39) Also, please remind students to bring the book to class every day.

Day 12-"Hottest, Coldest, Highest, Deepest" Introduction, Expository Text, Homework, and Sensay

 Hello students and parents, Today, we went over the first couple of pages on the text and I asked students to write down the word "expository text" with the definition being "gives information about the real world" for further study since it might be useful later on. After that, we talked about the preliminary parts of their "Scavenger Hunt" worksheet for bookwork/homework. I assigned it for homework today. Also, I added the "Ten Important Sentences" onto the Sensay website so please use it as a way to practice speaking and the sentences that I'll utilize for next week's test. They might also be helpful for the Scavenger Hunt worksheet so check them out.  As for homework: 1. Write Week 4 Vocabulary words 15-25 x2 + definitions (x1) 2. Optional: Chinese translations 3. Scavenger Hunt worksheet (finish by next Friday 9/27) 4. Recommended: Sensay "Hottest, Coldest, Highest, Deepest" Ten Important Sentences practice
