On Monday, we read and learned about animals and their homes. We talked about if we were an animal, what kind of animal would we be, where we would live, and what kind of food we would eat.

On Tuesday, we did a wordsearch about occupations.

On Wednesday, we learned about different occupations: actor, artist, banker, carpenter, plumber, professor, etc. We played charades to learn the vocabulary.

On Thursday, we reviewed Wednesday's vocabulary and learned about other professions: minister, programmer, mechanic, tailor, etc. There was a funny misconception that ministers (described as the person who works in the church) are Buddhist. We reviewed the vocabulary and drew pictures to define them.

Andrew would be a beetle. He wants to be a scientist when he grows up.

Aston would be a beetle. He missed some class because of doctor's appointments, but he was good at picking up the new vocabulary.

Benson would be a monkey who lives in the tree and eats bananas.

Eason would be a leopard. He is very good at expressing himself and is very good at understanding the work; he just lacks some basic self-control.

Gwen would be a lion who eats meat.

Irene would be a lion who eats meat.

Leo was absent on Monday and Tuesday. He returned to class in good spirits and learned the new vocabulary. He would be a dinosaur.

Phil would be a snake. He was very good at charades.

Yo-Yo would be a beetle who eats eggs. He wants to be a paleontologist (someone who studies dinosaurs).
