April Adventures

Time to meet some of the students from the April English program! April English is relatively new at Saha, and has only been in operation since March. These students are younger, from Grade 1 to Grade 6, and generally newer to English than their CDI peers.

This is a typical April English student, full of beans. His name is Ronnie, but his classmates prefer to call him "Running Machine".

This is Kane. He is missing his two front teeth, so he looks a little vampire-ish. Is he doing the classic rock guitar move "the windmill"? Is he doing the '80s school dance move "starting the mower"? Who knows...

This is Seed 1, in a jovial mood before class. Ross (arm slightly showing far left) this week declared that Sally (far right) "had love for him". Sally was not impressed.

And this is Seedbed 2-1, getting ready to learn some sounds. They are not asleep. When one kid hides from the camera it spreads like wildfire.

Rounding out this post is Seedbed 1-1. They are learning the sounds "ip" and "ig". They are very good at reciting the following rhyme:

How many pigs are on the rig?
Just one pig is on the rig!
The pig has big hips.
The pig has big lips!

Which is the best-behaved class you've seen so far?

'Til next time!
