This is a video Celeste sent me a few hours ago...I find it really interesting and thought-provoking... We need to do something, our world is falling to pieces.

Janeth's 6th class in 4th grade!

Today was Janeth's 6th class in 4th grade. Despite the constant interruptions, the class was really good. The crossword the students solved on the board proved to be engaging. But, in my opinion, the best activity was the guessing game! The sts were willing to listen to the short descriptions about animals Janeth was reading aloud. Then, sts had to solve a photocopy and, after checking the activity on the copy, they had to fill in a bubble writing which the animals they would like to have are. Something I want to highlight is Janeth's willingness to keep control over those kids with behaviour problems.

The day before yesterday was Janeth's 5th class in 4th grade. The activities the sts did were desk-based and most of them really enjoyed them. Then, Janeth showed them a picture of a pet created by herself (it was a mixture of a cat, a rabbit and a hamster) and asked them to create a pet tehmselves too.

Once again, there were problems with some students' behaviour, but Janeth managed to keep control over the class!

Go on like that girl!

Last Thursday was Janeth's 4th class in 4th grade. Almost all the students were present and most of them got really engaged with the lesson!!! Janeth started the class introducing the word PETS and then stuck some beautiful pictures on the blackboard. Sts knew all the animals but one: Hamtaro (I didn't feel bad for not knowing it either!!!). After playing a matching game on the board, the kids were asked to write about the pets they have and the ones they have not.

Again, Janeth managed to get the group motivated throughout the lesson. She also encouraged them all to work, but when she asked them to repeat the vocabulary she was presenting,they did not listen to her and, therefore, they did not understand what they had to do.

Jan, congrats on your great materials!!!
