Hi all : )
This week is fast. We did a lot of fun things.
We rapped the Chinese poems and we were very good at that. Don't forget to review all the poems because I am going to video tape the rap tempo you make with all the poems we learned. I have heard some of them and was very amazed.
We also learned to play Chinese chess. It is a fun game and it excises your brains for thinking of strategies to win and help you learn more Chinese characters. Some of us are already very good at it right now. You are welcome to beat me!!!
The science test for the fossil unit are done today and most of them did a great great job. They can celebrate now....however we are going to have the last unit test on the 10th of May. Ms Liao is also giving several pop quizzes to help you find out the concepts that you can't get very well and thus can reinforce them.
