What About Me Story Week 3  words week 3 communication book insert Dear Parents of A2 Students, I am pleased to inform you that the A2 students performed fairly well on their first official test, which covered spelling, and vocabulary words from Week 2, with a class average of 92. While I’m happy with their progress, I will continue to observe the class in terms of seating arrangements and address any remaining classroom management concerns, particularly with students speaking Mandarin in class which deters them from learning. Next week will be a short week, as Friday, February 28th, is a national holiday . Despite this, our lessons will remain progressive. It is important that students stay focused and actively participate in class to absorb all the necessary information for Week 3’s unit test and story comprehension. In the RWN, students will learn about sequencing by reading short passages to identify the sequence of events. Additionally, in the grammar section of the RWN, w...

Spelling and Vocabulary Fun Activity   To help prepare for this Friday's spelling and vocabulary assessment quiz, here's a fun review activity to help students learn this week's words! 

  Week 2 PPT Dear Parents, I am delighted to share that our first week of A2 classes was fast-paced and highly productive. I am very pleased with the students' ability to complete all tasks as assigned. As we move into Week 2, we will begin our regular lessons, culminating in a weekly quiz every Friday. In Week 3, students will have their first unit test. Our focus for this unit is the story "What About Me?" – a fable that teaches an important moral lesson. Through this story, students will practice sequencing events and understanding the moral of the story. In our Reading and Writing Notebook (RWN), we will focus on plural nouns. Students will learn to recognize and spell both singular and plural forms, while understanding the spelling changes that may occur, such as adding "es" to words or changing "y" to "ies." We will also explore words with irregular plural forms, such as "child" becoming "children." Additionally, st...

  Week 1 PPT Week 1 Charlie McButton  I would like to welcome each of my students to an exciting new semester in our A2-level program! I’m thrilled to guide your child through this journey of learning, growth, and discovery. This semester will focus on key areas such as reading, vocabulary, spelling, and grammar conventions, using our new Reading Street 3.1 RWN and reading book. In the first half of the 2nd semester, we will explore four stories, beginning week 1 reading of Charlie McButton; along with three primary stories—What About Me? Kumak’s Fish, and My Rows and Piles of Coins—being our main focus. These stories will be the foundation for our lessons and will be assessed through weekly tests and our Mid-Term exam. Your child will be actively engaged in discussions and activities that deepen their comprehension and language skills. To support their learning, students will have nightly homework assignments to review class lessons. This independent practice is crucial, as i...

Cowboy week 20 PPT Cowboy Story Dear A2 Parents, As we approach the end of the first semester, I want to share details about our concluding story,  "Cowboy ," which we will finish during class. There will not be any formal tests or quizzes for this lesson. Moreover, students are not obligated to complete the homework posted in the weekly insert since we will cover that material in class due to the ongoing Chinese final exams. This week, the only assigned homework will be for students to write a journal entry on Friday, reflecting on their goals for the second semester and outlining how they intend to achieve them. Thank you for your continued support and encouragement in your child's educational journey in A2. I look forward to their ongoing growth and success!
