Kids 4 the World Fair

It is a project we have with the children from the last level of Kids track. A country is assigned for each Kids 4 group and the students, together with the teacher, have to prepare the exhibition which is held on a certain day near the end of the semester. This year, it is going to be tomorrow(10/12/2010). Here you can see some of the pictures I took from my students during the preparation. In these photos, the students were making the flag of the country using the mosaic technique.

Fairy Tales

We had a topic on the book about Fairy Tales. Within this topic, we should analyse the elements of the story such as PLOT, SETTING etc.
I decide to make a Fairy Tale Project and I asked us my Adult 6 students to explore the world of fairy tales. First we chose the wonderful Cinderella and part of our Guided Reading program. We learned about the "elements" ~ the ingredients ~ of a fairy tale and then looked for them in Cinderella. I found a wonderful site which did the work for me.
Learn all about the elements of a fairy tale,here.
After having learned the elements of a fairy tale. I divided my students into smaller groups and assigned each a different story. The students were supposed to read, analyse and produce a poster.

Here is what they produced:



It was a very rewarding activity. The students could benefit from the vocabulary, the grammar and also the messages each story brings.
