透過對繪畫的熱愛練習學習英語作為第二語言！

At the beginning of each class the teacher will practice basic greetings with every student in attendance. The teacher will then introduce a subject to draw. Students are encouraged to draw freely in their own style with their own medium of choice (examples: crayons, dark pencil lead or felts). However, some students prefer a little guidance on how to draw the subject matter, which the teacher can provide. While drawing, students are encouraged to give feed-back on the topic and later to describe what they have drawn. This is always meant to be a fun and constructive atmosphere. Many students love to draw and the best way to learn conversational english is to have conversation about something you know and love! This is an ongoing class, and as such, each week we will have different topics to draw about beyond the 4 classes that are listed below as examples:

Week 1   class 1 we will draw basic farm animals. 
Week 2  class 2 we will draw some wild animals.
Week 3  class 3 we will draw a back yard and things you can find in a back yard 
Week 4  class 4  we will discuss things you can find in the city

More specifically:
Week 1/ class 1 we will draw basic farm animals. Each student will be encouraged to draw the animals one by one, and write down the name of what they are drawing. Once they have completed one drawing they will be encouraged to share it with the class and verbally describe their picture. The teacher will also encourage dialogue about the subject matter, such as, "What do you like about this animal?" or "What do you dislike about this animal." Furthermore, the teacher will draw each animal, and will speak english about the subject matter and how to draw it. This will encourage growth in comprehension. The teacher and each student will do the activities above for each drawing.

Week 2/ class 2 we will draw some wild animals. All of the activity listed above will be encouraged and discussed.

Week 3/ class 3 we will draw a back yard and things you can find in a back yard such as a garden, tools, and animals. For english practice and comprehension all of the listed activities above will be encouraged.

Week 4/ class 4  we will discuss things you can find in the city such as buildings, cars, trucks, parks, park bench, people, and police. All of the classroom participation and activity above will be encouraged and discussed.

Please note: As an experienced ESL teacher the instructor is aware that children may be at different comprehension and english speaking competency levels and the dialogue between teacher and student can and will be adjusted accordingly to maximize student learning.
