hi,
i am a new teacher in china. i've taught grade eight for a week, and some grade nine. also teaching a year 7 group from next week. this is what i was expecting.
however, i have been told i'm going to a different school on monday, and teaching kids in grade three and four. i think there are about 40-60 kids in each class. i don't know much about their level except this information i was given:
"grade 3 - whose bike is this? learn possessive pronoun. yours mine hers ours his theirs
. design some activities for the kids"
grade four - what are they doing? they have learnt what's she doing, what's he doing, what are you doing?"
i'm a bit stuck because they're much younger kids and i also don't know exactly how to make a whole lesson out of 'what are they doing?'. i also dont; know if i am expected to teach the whose bike - its his hers etc or expand on it...
if anyone has any ideas this would be good. i guess i'll play games, find out their level first, and then try and do something on these topics, but any help would be really appreciated.
