Today was a productive day. I had a great lesson with my grade 5s. I taught them everything there is to know about the words "On, In and Under". I know, sounds pretty boring... but today I learnt that as long as you go into the classroom with enthusiasm (and a fun game), the kids will love the class. At least this rule applies for my grade 4 and 5 classes. They are amazing. However, the grade 6 classes are starting to lose interest and no matter what I do, I can never get them involved in the class. So today I thought that I would change things up a bit. I brought in my guitar and taught them a new song called CAN DO KID. We watched the youtube clip a few times and then sang it all together. I think they really enjoyed it.
Here's the clip...
