As the end of 2020 quickly approaches, we are wrapping up the first theme of our Social Studies classes; the solar system! The kids have really enjoyed learning about this topic!
We ask that everyone make a replica of the solar system for the week of December 14th. (If your child will be absent that week, please let us know, and they can present theirs the week before!) The students will present their work (maximum 2 minutes per child), along with some interesting facts that we’ve learned.
There are no grades in Social Studies, however, the English teachers will be grading their students on their, creativity, knowledge and presentation skills. This presentation will be done in English, of course 🙂
Here are some ideas that may be of help:
General tips on how to make a solar system model: https://www.toppr.com/guides/science/science-projects/how-to-make-a-solar-system-project-at-home/
How to make the balls: papier maché, clay/plasticine, styrofoam balls
How to connect them: hang (like a mobile) using wire or string, hang inside a cardboard box https://sciencing.com/make-solar-system-model-home-school-project-12071411.html and https://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/ideas/kids/how-to-make-a-model-solar-system , connect with sticks, stick them onto a piece of paper/cardboard
Model using skewers to connect the planets: https://sciencing.com/make-3d-solar-system-5376159.html
This website allows to you calculate the size of planets so that they remain to scale. E.g. if your Sun is 5 inches (in diameter), how big should Mercury be? (It is in inches – sorry!) https://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/solar_system/
Have FUN! 🙂
Ms. Smith and Ms. Chatterjee

BEAR (Be Excited About Reading) PROGRAMME
Dear Parents September 2020
We are excited to continue our BEAR (Be Excited About Reading) Programme. The aim of the programme is to encourage your children to find pleasure in reading and acquire this habit for the rest of their lives.
Many studies have been conducted on the impact of reading on academic results; needless to say, reading is an intrinsic part of all school learning. However, we must not underestimate the impact of reading for pleasure – a fantastic fairy tale, a puzzling mystery, or an amazing adventure that captivates the reader and transports them to an imaginary world. Albert Einstein famously said, “When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.” With this in mind, our goal is to improve access to quality reading materials that create a positive attitude towards reading and, more importantly, continue to develop cognitive abilities, strategies and the imagination.
This year the BEAR Programme requires that your child reads two books every term. These books are of varying genres, lengths and styles. Please note that the programme is mandatory and is part of the English curriculum. You are responsible for buying the books for your child and encouraging them to read it. The book choices for the coming months are posted in the attachments below according to class and teacher. Each book is posted with an Amazon link. Amazon generally offers a variety of providers (new, used, kindle) to choose from. However, the books are also available at local bookshops such as WHSmith or Shakespeare and Company. It may prove more convenient to order several or all of your child’s titles at one time. This would avoid possible postal delays and ensure your child has the book on time.
Reading gives your children wings. Let’s work together to encourage them to fly.
Sincerely yours,
THE ENGLISH TEAM
Dear CE2 Parents and Students,
We are off to a great start!

Dialogue Competition
B. dialogue
Thank you,
Ms. B
Dear Students,
On Friday, 24th of January we are having a DIALOGUE COMPETITION. This competition will be organized in a similar way as our annual Poetry Competition. You should know your dialogue by heart. You will be scored on how well you have memorized (accuracy), interpreted (understanding) and recited (elocution, articulation, physical movements) the dialogue, as well as overall performance. You will also be scored on team work. Remember you are working together with other speakers! The winners for each group will be performing their dialogue for the other classes!
You might ask: How can I best practice my dialogue? The best way is to practice outloud with the participation of your family/friends. It is also useful to watch yourself in front of a mirror.
1) Listen to yourself – speak slowly and loudly, in a relaxed tone of voice and pronounce each word clearly, project your voice so that everyone in the room can hear you.
2) Watch yourself – use good posture, use appropriate body language and gestures, let the listeners « see » and « feel » the dialogue.
3) Be confident and have fun – enjoy your performence. Say to yourself, « WOW – how exciting! I get to recite this interesting dialogue for everyone. I’m going to do my best! » Then walk to the front of the room and enjoy!
4) Team Work – remember you are working together as a team. Listen to each other. The dialogue should flow smoothly and accurately like a proper interview or conversation.
Happy practicing! We look forward to listening to your recitations next Friday!
THE ENGLISH TEAM

Dear Parents,
The BEAR books for 2020 have been posted on the blog, as well as on a poster in the entrance foyer of the school. If you have not already ordered your children’s reading books for the comings months please do so today. The amazon links are found at the following blog post link and I suggest you order several or all books together so they will arrive promptly. Some of the books have a longer delivery period. Despite this, I chose the books as I know they are a good fit for the class and the children will enjoy them. You can copy and paste the following link:
Thank you for your continued support of the BEAR programme. It is a pleasure to hear the children read and see their excellent progress.

BEAR
Last December, the titles of our books were put on the blog in a general BEAR Program post. I have chosen books that are parts of a collection or a series. When possible, you may simply get the assigned book, or offer your child the boxed set for more moments of reading pleasure. It sometimes cost the same or just a little more to get the collection instead of a single book.
January — Flat Stanley: His Original Adventure
(Or get the four-book Flat Stanley collection!)
February — Poems to Perform: A Classic Collection
This month, we will work on a project based on « Flat Stanley » and this will be due on the 31st of January.
The other books for the rest of the year will be posted shortly.

Dear Students,
It’s wonderful to see all of you. It sounds like everyone had a great Christmas vacation.
Our homework this week has many words with a long « i » sound. Please remember to work carefully. It’s important that after you write the word the first time COVER it and then write it without looking! This way you learn the words and not simply copy.
CE2 Homework 12 – for 13 January 2020
We are reading about « The big Sky » in our books. It’s exciting to read about astronomers, sailors, astronauts and scientists!
Happy studying,

Happy new year, everyone!

Write each word 3 times each.
Also, the new book lists are up for the BEAR program for the rest of the school year, so please be sure to check the blog and purchase the books! 🙂
Thanks,
Ms. Smith
Dear Students,
We hope you continue to enjoy the BEAR programme reading books! We’ve chosen excellent titles for the coming months and we look forward to reading/discussing the books with you.
Dear Parents,
Thank you for your continued support of the BEAR programme. We have seen many positive developments in our classes. The book choices for the coming months are posted in the attachments below according to class. (The attachments are in WORD format and can be downloaded.) Each book is posted with an Amazon link. Amazon generally offers a variety of providers (new, used, kindle) to choose from. However, the books are also available at local bookshops such as WHSmith or Shakespeare and Company. It may prove more convenient to order several or all of your child’s titles at one time. This would avoid possible postal delays and ensure your child has the book on time.
CM BEAR Programme Books 2019-2020

Once again, the aim of the programme is to encourage the children to find pleasure in reading and acquire this habit for the rest of their lives. Many studies have been conducted on the impact of reading on academic results; needless to say, reading is an intrinsic part of school learning. However, we must not underestimate the impact of reading a fantastic fairy tale, a puzzling mystery, or an amazing adventure that captivates the reader and transports them to an imaginary world.
Reading gives your children wings. Let’s continue to work together to encourage them to fly.
Kind regards,
Dear Eurecole Families,
We hope you enjoy this holiday season with time-honoured traditions and simple joys with friends and family. It is a most wonderful time of year.
We would like to thank you for your kind support, warmhearted words and thoughtful gestures. We look forward to a new year filled with new learning experiences, new challenges and new fun.
Wishing you peace, joy, hope and happiness,
THE ENGLISH TEAM

Hello! Next week we’ll be working on the » Twas the Night Before Christmas » poem. Here’s the link for the story. We’ll be breaking it down and acting it out in class. 🙂
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there;
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads;
And mamma in her ‘kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap,
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below,
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny reindeer,
With a little old driver, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick.
More rapid than eagles his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name;
« Now, DASHER! now, DANCER! now, PRANCER and VIXEN!
On, COMET! on CUPID! on, DONNER and BLITZEN!
To the top of the porch! to the top of the wall!
Now dash away! dash away! dash away all! »
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky,
So up to the house-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of toys, and St. Nicholas too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little hoof.
As I drew in my hand, and was turning around,
Down the chimney St. Nicholas came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot;
A bundle of toys he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler just opening his pack.
His eyes — how they twinkled! his dimples how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a cherry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard of his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook, when he laughed like a bowlful of jelly.
He was chubby and plump, a right jolly old elf,
And I laughed when I saw him, in spite of myself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread;
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight,
HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD-NIGHT!
Have fun!
Dear Parents and Students,
Thank you everyone for participating in our White Winter Wonderland Sing-a-long!

Dear Parents and Students,
After last week’s picture taking session and transport strike, we can finally have a full week of class!
HOMEWORK CONTEST
All three of Ms. B’s groups are competing against each other this year in our Homework Contest. We will see which group does homework regularly. Through this contest, we can see that each student has a very important role to play to achieve the entire’s group’s objective. #TeamEffort
The homework was done but we still have to make an effort in terms of following instructions/format and keeping our work neat. This is a major objective this year.
Here are this week’s results:
CE1 — 86% of the students did the written homework!
CE2 — 100% of the students did the written homework!
CM — 100% of the students did the written homework!
Congratulations to my CE2 and CM groups, this week’s winners!!! 🏆

Homework instructions for next Monday’s homework will be posted on this blog. Unless specified, any written work must be done on the homework notebook (cahier violet/cahier de devoirs). This will be checked in class on the Monday it is due.
PREPARATION and TESTS
This year, spelling preparation and any other written work will now be done on the homework notebook (cahier violet/cahier de devoirs). We will have spelling tests every other week. We will focus on other content and skills through grammar or vocabulary quizzes, speaking exercises and creative activities.
WORD LISTS
Our group’s word lists for the year can be found glued at the back of each student’s orange notebook (which will be brought home this Friday). The words are taken from our course book. These word lists will be used for class work and weekly assessments.
SAY AND DO
Every week, all my students, from CE1 to CM, will be given a « say and do » homework to encourage them to practice speaking in English in certain situations. Students can speak with family members, friends or other people around them.
This week, introduce yourself to someone, and ask them how they are doing. Tell the class about this on Monday.

Click on the link below for your homework assignment.
CE2 Homework 1 – September 16, 2019
Remember: All homework assignments (French, English, German, Spanish) are to be done in your purple « cahier de devoirs« . You can do the homework directly in the notebook or if you prefer, you can print the homework assignment and put the finished copy into your « cahier de devoirs ».
Happy Studying!
Mrs T
Dear Parents!
Each year brings postive and exciting changes. This year we are especially delighted to launch our BEAR (Be Excitied About Reading) Programme for CE1, CE2 and CM. As stated in the letter sent home, the BEAR Programme requires that your child read a book every month. These books are of varying genres, lengths and styles appropriate for their age. The link below has been set up for your convenience. It includes the books for September, October, November and December. You need only to click on your child’s English group and the current month. Please note that the programme is mandatory and is part of the English curriculum. You are responsible for buying the monthly book (or buying all four months at the same time) for your child and encouraging them to read it. At the end of each month there will be a short comprehension test in class.
The aim of the programme is to encourage the children to find pleasure in reading and acquire this habit for the rest of their lives. Many studies have been conducted on the impact of reading on academic results; needless to say, reading is an intrinsic part of school learning. However, we must not underestimate the impact of reading a fantastic fairy tale, a puzzling mystery, or an amazing adventure that captivates the reader and transports them to an imaginary world. Albert Einstein famously said, “When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.” With this in mind, our goal is to improve access to quality reading materials that create a positive attitude towards reading and, more importantly, continue to develop cognitive abilities, strategies and the imagination.
Reading gives your children wings. Let’s work together to encourage them to fly.
Warmest regards
Dear Parents!
We hope you enjoyed a wonderful summer and are relaxed, recharged and ready to start a new school year. We are delighted that you are part of our amazing learning community here at Eurecole. We welcome and value your positive energy and dedication to excellence in education, and we look forward to working with you and your children. All signs point to another incredible and productive school year. We all share the common goals of nurturing responsible, caring students and promoting high-level learning. Together, we look forward to making this school year one of growth and achievement for all children.
Warmest regards
THE ENGLISH TEAM
Dear Students,

Everyone learned a lot of new words and reviewed others we’ve seen in the past. We also practiced how to read and follow instructions, especially when taking tests.
It’s now time to get back to our course book. To get ready for that, here is a picture book that will help us move from Unit 7 (Our green Earth) to Unit 8 (Home, Sweet Home).
Read this for next week and be ready to talk about the different tree houses you see!
Enjoy your long weekend,

In total you should have 20 sentences that clearly show that you understand when to use present continuous and when to use present simple.

POETRY RECITATION CONTEST
Dear Students!
On the Friday, 5th of April, we will have our annual Poetry Competition. You should know your poem by heart. You will recite it in front of the class and a teacher. You will be scored on how well you have memorized (accuracy), interpreted (understanding) and recited (elocution, articulation, physical movements) the poem, as well as overall performance. A winner for each group will be announced during a special awards ceremony!
You might ask: How can I best practice my poem? The best way is to practice the poem outloud in front of your family/friends or in front of a mirror.
1) Listen to yourself – speak slowly and loudly, in a relaxed tone of voice and pronounce each word clearly, project your voice so that everyone in the room can hear you.
2) Watch yourself – use good posture, use appropriate body language and gestures, let the listeners « see » the poem.
3) Be confident and have fun – enjoy your poem. When it is your turn say to yourself, « WOW – how exciting! I get to recite this beautiful poem for everyone. I’m going to do my best! » Then walk to the front of the room, introduce yourself, say the name and author of your poem, and off you go!
Happy practicing! We look forward to listening to your recitations on Friday!
THE ENGLISH TEAM 
Dear Students,
For your homework this week please fill in the following worksheet on irregular simple past tense verbs and some of your recent vocabulary. If you can’t print the sheet for some reason, please write the answers on a sheet of paper, numbering the questions carefully.

For next Monday’s homework, please do pages 70-71 in your Activity Book. This will help you prepare for our new lesson and the upcoming English Exam in mid-April.
POETRY RECITATION CONTEST
The contest is this Friday, the 5th of April! The judges will choose one winner from our class. The children will earn points for how well they memorized and interpreted the poem. Gestures, costumes and props are allowed!
HOMEWORK
Last week’s homework was very easy, and yet only 6 out of 16 students copied the poem and drew what they understood. Parents, please make sure that your child comes to class with this week’s homework done. This has always helped the children learn their lessons and participate when doing our activities.
MATERIALS
Kindly check that your child has all his/her course materials, most especially a blue ballpoint pen. The children are made to be responsible for their things, and when they do not come equipped, our precious time is wasted trying to look for books or pens.
ENGLISH EXAM 2
Our second English Exam will take place on the 15th and 16th of April. The review notes will be posted shortly. You may already start reviewing the lessons in Units 4 to 6.
Thank you,
