Pronouns: He, She and They
After the lesson, the students should be able to
1. know the difference between He, She and They
2. memorize at least five verbs
3. and make simple sentences.
These are the sentences in the presentation:
She is singing.
They are dancing.
He is jumping.
She is eating.
He is sleeping.
They are reading.
He is writing.
He is swimming.
They are playing.
- You can play guessing games and ask the students to guess what you're doing.
- Repetition is the key! I always ask them to repeat after me until they memorize.
- Evaluation is important. Worksheets are helpful in assessing if the students have learned.

Basic Classroom Commands
I used this presentation for my pre-school class. Pre-school students have very short attention span so I usually spend the time, watching videos, singing and dancing. I used the "Teddy Bear Song" and "Five Little Monkeys" in teaching some of the commands.
1. Stand up
2. Sit down
3. Clap your hands
4. Stamp your feet
5. Turn around
6. Jump
Of course they already know how to do those things, the challenge for EFL teachers is to know the native language of the students and translate it in English.

Resources coming soon!
It's been months since I posted something new. I became so busy making some presentations for my classes. I've been putting so much effort in those presentations because I know that I will use them again in the future. I'm planning to upload some presentations and exercises here. I hope it will help other teachers, especially those who are too busy to make their own presentations.
Let me know if you have requests.
Love,
Teacher Karla

WIS Teachers Day
It was a normal day at school. We had classes in the morning. The Student Council asked us to go to the cafeteria because they prepared lunch for us.
After the pizza lunch, they asked us to change clothes (hmmm!). We were asked to go to the assembly hall. Students gave special numbers and sweet messages to us.

They grouped us randomly into two. An amazing race was organized by the students. :)
We ran! (Bibo teachers)
I can still remember running in skirt. HAHAHA!
We had to shoot a ball. (I can only shoot when it's graded! LOL )
and some more balls! This is like beer pong, without a beer! :P
They prepared a lot of stations!
We solved math problems! ^^,
and puzzles!
The teachers really enjoyed the games.
They gave us some prizes too.
The event ended by a flash mob.
I'll make another post about the presents I received from my sweet grade 5 students. <3
JCS Teachers Day
It started with a cupcake and a note. I know this day would be different.
I went to their classroom. Some students blindfolded me. It was the start of an amazing race. Two students guided me to go down the stairs. We went to different stations. I was asked to eat something, to dance (HAHAHA), and to answer some questions. I found myself in the covered court after several stations. They removed my blindfold and a video presentation played.
I was really touched by their effort. These kids spent time in making the Teachers Day very special. I felt that all my efforts were appreciated. This day is one of my best days in Jabez Christian School.
After the short program, I went back to the faculty room and saw some sweets in my table. My kids really know how to make me feel special.
Among all these gifts, this medal really inspired me to be the "best teacher" for them.

Teachers Day
It's my first time to "celebrate" Teachers Day outside the country. Well, I didn't actually celebrated it. I just stayed at home because it was my day off. I washed some clothes, and cleaned my place. While cleaning, I saw some letters from my former students. Reading those letters made me feel how sweet it is to be a teacher.
It's not the spelling nor the grammar, It's the thought that counts. :"> I have some students who never get tired of reminding me that I'm pretty (even at my haggard moments). It feels so good to be loved by them.
I'm glad that my students know that I don't dislike them. I really love being with them. I treat them as my babies or younger siblings. As much as possible, I want them to enjoy the learning activities in class.
The greetings meant a lot for me. I'm thankful that my former students remembered to greet me. :">
PS
I'll make another post about my experience in the Philippines during Teachers Day.

Dear Ysa,
Thanks for the very creative letter. :)
I think I know the reason why but I can't tell it to you because you're too young to understand it. Maybe few years from now, we can talk about life over a cup of coffee.
I miss you baby! See you in Edmodo. ;)
Love,
Teacher Karla
