What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): The smaller-than-expected class with mostly new people (All new in the beginning) allowed for much more repetition and focus than usual. After alphabet and names, a good deal of time was spent on kitchen utensil vocab (based on the real kitchen objects I brought) and then a dialogue about picking out/handing each other those various items. Lots of around-the-room and engagement and standing/moving around the table. Using a recipe as a document search then proved a great transition to reviewing measurement fractions- writing, saying and identifying with the measuring cups/spoons. Great class overall!

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): It was a small class of 5 students. It was Krysie’s second time teaching and she was a bit nervous. Because we had 2 assistants and me as a DJ, we all were paired up with the students to help them better navigate through the activities. We had a lot of fun with the Listen/Point activity. Krysie did a good job!

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We started and ended on time. We had several new learners. We had fun using kitchen tools I brought in for vocabulary work. We had a dialogue about borrowing and measuring one cup of oats. We ended with 20 questions using kitchen utensils. This was my first time without a DJ, so it was a little challenging, but the assistants were very helpful and the learners were enthusiastic!

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We started a few minutes late but ended right on time. We had one new learner, and the rest were mostly regulars. The Midland group is starting to build back up. We asked each other, “Where are you?”, and answered with specific locations. We all enjoyed the memory game with street names! We ended by listening and pointing to places on a map of the area.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We had eleven learners tonight! We went around the table asking and handing each other kitchen utensils. We then had a dialogue about Valentine’s Day – when is it and what do you do to celebrate. We used Valentines dinner and dessert recipes for document search. We enjoyed the brownies I brought in and then sang, “If I Knew You Were Coming I’d Have Baked a Cake”.

What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): We enjoyed listening and pointing to the plants on the lovely Native Plants poster. We then had a dialogue around where we like to hike. We concluded with a song about the five things plants need to grow.
Just to clarify, the module for Feb. 25 was “In the Kitchen”, and the lesson was “Don’t bite off more than you can chew”. We enjoyed making and eating an easy snack mix, and we sang the song, “If I Knew You Were Coming I’d Have Baked a Cake”. I normally end my classes with a song, and I think the learners now expect and enjoy that!
