W2 - Mar 5

Dear, parents. 

I will typically make 2-3 worksheets a week. Students will always be asked to take then home and use to review for their test on Mondays. This time there was no mocktest (practice) I believe the test will be more valid for me. Showing me clearly who is learning from my class, and who's studying. Then I should be able to mold my English class even more towards their English level. 

FYI I use a loyalty card to encourage students learning. Students collect stamps and when they finish a row of 6 they come to get a sticker and cookie or Hichew. A student told me today that another student saw I was using a penguin stamp and that student had one at home. Sadly, the student brought it to school and stamped a students card full. Although I would notice such obvious cheating, I wouldn't notice adding the odd few stamps. Thankfully, a student was very honest and told me what happened. 

Please explain to students about honesty and not to cheat or lie. Also, if anyone has such a stamp, please don't let them bring it to school. It's a good lesson to learn, but I also don't want to waste money changing my stamp because someone is cheating. 🙏
Thanks for those students that really try their best. 🙏🤍

Dear, parents. Today we covered some Wonders, although students told me some pages were already finished.  We did the first two pages no problem. However, when we came to the last two, it was already filled out. I'm not sure why, and will try work that out tomorrow.  Today we had experience class, which seemed to go okay. Students seem to enjoy learning about Africa art patterns and making their paperplate necklaces. The only issue was with some students standing up and  walking around instead of working on their own project. I repeatedly asked them to wait until break and go back to their seats. Sadly, I eventually shouted to tell them to sit down. This worked, but I don't feel comfortable having to raise my voice so much for a few students who wouldn't follow the rule. Please encourage your children to listen, learn, and respect. Students were sent home with a mocktest. I covered the material during the class, so they should be able to complete i...
