Splendid record from Irene, Hany, Boss and 601


Happy Chinese New Year!
Chocolate put on glasses and turned into a smart bear.
                                  I took a photo with Chocolate in the living room.
Chocolate made a new friend, Mr. Dolphin.
I played flute and drew with Chocolate.
 
I surfed the Internet with Chocolate.
I had dinner with Chocolate and went to the supermarket .
I read a book with Chocolate.
Year of the Pig is coming!  We had our traditional activity
writing spring couplet by calligraphy in the English class.
 

We translated Chinese words into English ones and
 Ms. Stacy said that we could choose our favorite and wrote it.  At first, we needed to drew a draft.                   

Then, we drew the draft on the red paper called spring couplet. Everybody took his time to finish the activity step by step.
 

In order to write calligraphy well, we practiced calligraphy on the paper first.  
The Chinese writing brush is too soft to write beautiful words.
Finally, we wrote on the spring couplet. 
Oscar wrote the word,
, which means wealth.
Sunny wrote 春 which means spring and she also drew a pig.
Everyone wrote the words carefully and drew some pictures
to represent the year of the pig.


Happy Chinese New Year and winter break!

We revised our fiction stories.
We always use the blanket on the rug.
This is our reading and writing organizer.

This is us revising with partners.


Ms. Kochvar came and we played seated volleyball.  Seated volleyball is where you play volleyball sitting down.

We earned a party and we are writing down ideas of what we should do for a party.
