Little Penguin & the Big World

I would like to thank DEER Theatre for coming to our school last Thursday to perform for the P.3 students. It was definitely an enjoyable experience for the boys!
Stage set up & sound checks were done before school.

An actress gives our little emcees Benjamin and Michael some tips before the show.

As a reward for being the little emcees, Benjamin and Michael got to meet the cast backstage!

Final rehearsal for the emcees before the big show.

Anticipating...

SHOW TIME!
The hall was filled with laughter!
The characters came down to shake hands with the students.
High five with the Happy Panda!
Little Penguin taught our students to treasure and take care of the environment. There is no "chosen one" for this job. We are all part of the world so we are all responsible. 
Our little emcees wrapped up the performance with a closing speech. Thank-you Michael and Benny. You have both done me proud. An outstanding effort for your first time as emcees on stage!
  
Drama is a great way to learn and practise English. Whether you are watching, acting or participating behind the stage, you'll be able to learn new skills, meet new friends and broaden your knowledge of the world!

So kids, did you like the show? Who was your favourite character? Has the drama convinced you to be more environmentally friendly? You're welcome to email your thoughts and opinions to me at sjpsreadingtree@gmail.com

DEER Theatre Performance

Hello P.3 students! I'm pleased to tell you that I have organized the DEER Theatre Company to come to our school tomorrow to give a drama performance called "Little Penguin and the Big World." Some of you may have noticed some posters around the school already.



The story begins when an iceberg melts and cracks due to Global Warming.  The little penguin floats away from her family and friends on a journey around the world. What will happen next to this poor little penguin? Will she live to see another day or join the dinosaurs on the list of extinction?


Let's all find out tomorrow! I hope you'll enjoy the show!

Scrabble Mania Update

Students are now half way through the ECA program. They are enjoying the training games and improving their Scrabble scores every week! Keep it up boys. The Scrabble Championship Competition is near...
   
Reciting the alphabet backwards is a lot trickier than it looks.

   
Students playing a game called "What's on TV?" Students need to describe the picture on the screen to their teammates without saying the actual word. How many pictures can they guess in 1 minute?  
"It's a small supermarket...you can buy food...it's everywhere...the name has two numbers...like Circle OK but not!! Come on guys! You know this!!!"

 
In preparation for the Scrabble Championship Competition!
