Hocus the dinocroc

Hi 1st graders, here you have a lovely dinocroc who is going to be your friend. 
 Hocus is born and it meets Lotus in the episode below.
Hope you like it. Have fun!


Note for 1st graders' families: 
I invite mothers, fathers and grandparents to spend some time with their children watching cartoons: a pleasant experience that will be enjoyed with curiosity.

Happy Thanksgiving

Today is an important day in United States. It's a national holiday and people spend the day with their families and it is traditional to roast a turkey with stuffing inside.
We will talk about it and we will learn some vocabulary today.

Present Simple

Hi CS students! 
Click on the picture below and practise present simple.

Use the Simple Present to express the idea that an action is repeated or usual. The action can be a habit, a hobby, a daily event, a scheduled event or something that often happens. It can also be something a person often forgets or usually does not do.

It's about time

 Ugh...teaching time is one of the most difficult things for me.  I mean, if you think about it there are A LOT of skills for our students to learn!  
This is a good resource to teach time.
After the clock is put together, just practice, Practice, PRACTICE!
Thanks a lot to the crazy teacher!

Be kind!

2nd graders learnt this nice poem!

Please and thank you
are magic words
we need to say
very often, every day.

Please and thank you
are useful words
to help you be polite
and make people feel alright.

Please and thank you
are the best words
to say people
with a big bright smile!


Let your children know how happy it makes you when they are being kind and responsible. 
Let's listen to them!

Note for families: you will see this poem in the children's scrapbook.
