6th Grade : Birthday Bingo!
Today 6th grade students studied their second lesson on We Can! 1 Unit 2 "When is your birthday?". We focused on listening activities to build their confidence in understanding dates.
The greetings at the start of the class are led by the class leaders for that day.
"Good morning everyone!"
Next, Ms. Emily and one of the students did a demonstration for the greeting game. Recently they have been using the phrase "What is your favorite~?" a lot so we decided to show a demonstration using many other phrases.
"Ms. Emily, can you speak Spanish?"
"Yes, I can! Hola!"
"Can you play the recorder?"
"Yes, I can."
"When is your birthday?"
"My birthday is March 14th."
"Do you like natto?"
"No, I don't."
"Can you speak Japanese?"
"Yes, I can!"
Next, we did the chant for that unit with gestures. After that we did `Let's Listen 1` and `Let's Watch and Think 2`.
The students had to listen to the festival descriptions (Let's Listen 1) or watch the video (Let's Watch and Think 2) in order to draw a line from the festival picture to the correct month.
"We hold snowball fights in February."
"Let's draw a line to February."
After the listening activities we played bingo with ordinal numbers (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.).
Ms. Emily said the numbers and the homeroom teacher didn't write the number on the board until Ms. Emily was saying the next number. That gave everyone time to think while still making them listen to the numbers that Ms. Emily said.
Everyone listened carefully!
After Ms. Emily said the numbers everyone repeated them.
"First!"
The students tried to get `Bingo!` and everyone enjoyed it so much that we kept playing until someone got a full house (all numbers erased). The students called this `Perfect Bingo`.
"Perfect!!"
Good job 6th grade students. It was a fun class!
