Problem Solving in Maths - Pair Share
These students are trying to solve a Maths problem by sharing their ideas with two friends. Using problem solving approach gives an opportunity for the child to talk, figure things out either by themselves or with friends. Teacher is monitoring their work, and at the same select few students to report their work back to the whole class at the end of the lesson.

Learning a poem could be difficult sometimes especially with unfamiliar words. Using actions or kind of movement helps students (especially ESOL students) to make connections in some way to learn the words and the structure of the sentences.
Room 1 has difficulty in saying words in this poem, but movements / actions helps students to say the words correctly.
Enjoy!

Transition Program with GBKids
Every second Tuesday for about half an hour, GBKids with their big kids club visits Room 1. This is part of our transition program where we agreed to visit each other and talk about some of the important things that we may need to look after.
The main idea for this visit is for children to get familiar with the new environment in which that they are going to face once they start school.
This visit has been effective and watch this slide for things that we do and the reactions from the children.
