KIWI CHRISTMAS

As you know our teacher assistant is from New Zealand. These days, we're learning a little bit more about Christmas in her country.

In New Zealand Christmas is a celebration in the middle of summer, a time to be outdoors and enjoying the sunshine. Most decorations will be Christmas trees or a summery take on a traditional Christmas decoration. It is most certainly still an enormously important holiday for Kiwis and the Christmas spirit is embraced by many.

Christmas Day itself is usually celebrated with friends and family and tends to be a casual relaxed day spent outdoors in the garden or on the beach. Christmas dinner will often consist of a ham, a range of barbecued meats or fish and a range of salads. For dessert there would traditionally be a Pavlova (see picture) somewhere on the table.

We're learning a beautiful Christmas song from New Zealand. We love it!

And, of course, a traditional one...!

UNIT 3 MY COMMUNITY

Dear Parents,

Your child is learning about places in the community. In this unit your child will learn how to ask about the location of different places and give simple directions.

Your child will find out about different forms of transport and will learn about looking after the environment. Your child will complete his/her own ‘My Little Fact File of Transport’ to reinforce this learning. Your child will also learn about where children go and how they travel there in Britain and learn a rhyme to practise specific English sounds.

In this unit your child will have the opportunity to read and write questions about places in the community and read and write a set of simple directions. Your child will also read short texts about different forms of transport and write a short description of a place he/she goes to, following a model.

I upload some videos and online games your child can play to reinforce the content.

Thank you for your help in making your child’s early contact with English as enjoyable and successful as possible.

Mrs. Eva.
