Christmas 20 Nov. - 21 Dec. 2012

We chose one English Christmas carol for each year group.

This week, I will introduce the songs to my children. We will see how we have fun and learn. Music is the best way of teaching and learning for young learners.

3 year-old: The dancing Christmas tree song
4 year-old: We wish you a merry christmas
5 year-old: Santa's on his way

( I will upload the songs later. )


After singing the carols, we will start to learn christmas vocabulary. It will be funny also!

I will have many sessions about Christmas. Now I don't know what will I do after two weeks. But my main materials are ready:
