What
crraaaazzzy weather Texas has been having this year. Two snow days within one
week? In Texas?! Even though it threw off our schedule a bit, I’m glad I could catch the
kids up with what I had planned. After coming back from the Tuesday’s snow day,
we discussed about different bodies of water and saltwater vs. freshwater in Vietnamese.
While teaching the vocabulary in Vietnamese, I also teach them American sign
language. It’s so cute when they’re all doing their sign language. In first
grade, they are learning English, Vietnamese, Spanish, and sign language!
Last week in class, we really focused on rocks. We learned that
rocks can come in all different shapes, sizes, textures, and colors. We also
learned that rocks and minerals are very important to us because we use everyday
things made from rocks and minerals. For example, they are used to make jewelry
or to build houses. Since it’s testing time, Bill Nye the Science Guy was very
popular in the class. We watched a couple of his videos that taught us about
rocks and different bodies of water. So happy to say that I am almost done with
testing. I will be taking off next Tuesday to complete my testing but I will
still be on campus.
I
asked the kiddos to bring in some rocks so we could observe the size, texture,
and
sizes
of their rock. Some of them brought in some very cool looking rocks.
In
this activity, the students used their creativity to think of something they
would build with rocks.
“Nếu em có rất nhiều đá, em sẽ cất cái...”
=
“If I had a lot of rocks, I would build a…”
