Today, all the immersion classes had a special Immersion Day. We came together to give a presentation to the rest of the children about what we learned in our February English activities. Class 1 had been learning about Chinese New Year, and they showed everyone what you can see duing Chinese New Year. They even showed us a special dragon dance they learned with dragons they made. Class 2’s presentation was about shapes. They learned many different shapes, and had to find the right shapes to finish their pictures. Class 4 showed us how different things are powered. They made helicopters, paper airplanes, and even greenhouses. Class 7 performed the story book “Dinosaur Roar” using dinosaur puppets that they made. They also quizzed everyone on which dinosaurs were carnivores and herbivores. After the presentations were finished, we split up into our special immersion groups to play some English games and eat lunch together. Everyone had a lot of fun mixing classes and getting to play with different friends and teachers. We can’t wait for the next Immersion Day!
