of the Mornin' to You An
Irish Expression which means I hope you have a great day.
It was so nice to see
all those who came to our ELL Olympic Game Night last Thursday evening.
The children and I worked very hard to prepare for this evening.
I so appreciate those who brought a dish from
their culture for all to taste too!
The children started the program by entering the
room with their torches and flags.
Then I showed the families
some of the aspects of my ELL website.
Next my students shared games
with the audience from their culture on the smart board in the library.
Then we all ventured back to the cafeteria where we enjoyed food from the ELL family's culture.
We also
had pizza, fruit, vegetables, lemonade and
cake.
Then names were drawn and each child received a game to
play with their families.
There were also Communication Arts games that I made
for the children to play to help them reinforce skills in
the classroom.
It was a busy evening.

Due to our preparation for the ELL banquet we
will continue to work in Unit 5 Week 2

more games.
