English for late boomers補救教學分享

I’ve got a last minute call to do a presentation over remedial teaching in the subject of English. Luckily I’ve been blogging about my catch up program at the last school year so retrieving those data is no problem. Compiling them, however, is never easy.

 

 

24th EFL/ESL blog carnival!

Well, it has been several weeks since school started and I’m still as busy as a bee!

But it’s the carnival time of the year again! This is the third time I submitted my blog post to the carnival and I’ve since enjoyed so many more interesting reading and ideas of teachers from different parts of the world!

The theme this time is about back-to-school ideas/ice breakers/ fillers. I’m very happy to be included again! Thanks to A Journey in TEFL’s organization, there are a bunch of good readings waiting to be ponder and experimented!

I try to document things that went well in my classroom as often as possible but sometimes it is very difficult to just sit down and write! Gotta write more often and believe me writing IS therapeutic!

Do check out the 24th EFL/ESL blog carnival for lots of practical ideas! Mine is on the first of the list:-)

End-of-the-semester activity_2nd grade & 4th grade

Well, it’s a bit odd to post this at the beginning of the semester but I didn’t get the chance to finish the post until today!!:-P

How do you wrap up a semester in your last few sessions? As subject teachers, sometimes it is a bit challenging to plan a decent learning program at the end of the semester when everything is so hectic and kids are restless. This semester I tried something different with my 2nd graders and 4th graders. They enjoyed the last few sessions and I get to document the things we did together. A win win lesson plan!

Activity: Song poster

Year group: 2ND GRADERS (EFL)

Props:

  1. 3 copies of Eating the alphabets for each group. Preferably 1 between 2 kids
