Pronouns, pronouns and more pronouns...

In Primary 1 we have been going through the personal pronouns and practicing them as much as possible. It is never a bad time to review such basic concepts of grammar, because of their importance in helping us gain a strong command of the English language. The following video is a very fun song intended to add some excitement into this sort of lesson. InshaAllah we'll be able to practice our pronouns in class, as well as the song, very soon!

Get ready for our English Campaign!

We have already begun our new English Campaign, with the goal of eliminating all of those common mistakes the students make in their daily speech, in order to beautify their English.

Our first step has been to decorate the classrooms with a wide array of colourful posters, which will remind the students of the correct usage of several English phrases while making their surroundings more interesting with the intricate and attractive designs employed in these posters.

Here are a few samples...enjoy them and join us on our great campaign!

Conjunction Junction!

Primary 2 students...here's the song you were asking for! Keep practicing those conjunctions!

Capital Letters & Periods!

Today, in our Primary 1 class, we went over the usage of capital letters & periods.

Dear students, please always remember the two important rules that we repeated over and over again during our class today:

- Every sentence starts with a CAPITAL LETTER.

- Every sentence ends with a period.

These are very basic and very important rules that you must learn NOW. If you leave it for later, it will be TOO LATE!

Check out these videos I found about the right usage of capital letters and periods. Insha Allah, if you pay enough attention and keep practicing, you will soon master this very important lesson in proper English.
