To support emerging social skills, young learners will have the opportunity to meet other young learners in a social environment. Small class size ensures that each learner has an opportunity to participate in this fun, ongoing class. We will talk about our favourite colours, animals, movies, songs and other various topics. Each week will have a theme so feel free to bring something to show and share around that topic! This class is learner-centred, although we will have a weekly theme, the young learners can decide what interests them and we’ll chat about it! Looking forward to meeting you and having a great time! First week of the month: tell us about a game or toy you like to play with. Second week of the month: tell us about an animal you like. Third week of the month: tell us about a movie or show you have recently watched. Fourth week of the month: tell us about a song or music that you like. (only in specific months) Fifth week: Free for all chat! Feel free to bring something to share and tell us all about it!
