For our grade 6 students we are currently busy with a very interesting topic. We are practicing conversation between a waiter and people in a restaurant. We all go to restaurants and we all love to eat out, so I thought this will be some useful language for our grade 6 students.

Dear Students And Parents

(--Paper Bridge--)

Our Technology Education has started with the grade 5 students last week and we kicked off with a basic introduction about structures. We learned that there are natural structures and man-made structures around us. We will follow this course for two weeks now and end it at the end of November. It is to teach students about structures and why we need them. This week the students will make a model. The students will get straws and glue to build a bridge or a tower. We will end the lessons with a documentary about how the Taipei 101 was build and just bring

Introduction of our new English Teacher: Corne

Dear students and parents.

My name is Corne and I am the new English Teacher at Dung Xin Elementary school. I am from Johannesburg, South Africa and I am twenty six years old. I have been in Taiwan for two and a half years now, and I really like the country and its friendly people. I am a certified teacher and I hold a Bachelors Degree in Technology Education, with Business Management and Psychology as main Subjects. I taught for a year in South Africa before I came to Taiwan where I worked at Sacred Heart Elementary school until recently. I enjoy teaching a lot and it feels so good to make a positive contribute in children’s lives through teaching. I am exited to be here and hope to meet all of my students soon. We are going to have so much fun learning English.

2010 Summer Camp

Thanks to our friends from Chung Yu Institute of Technology for joining us for our 1-week summer camp during these very hot days in July. Our students, from grades 2 through 5, from elementary schools across Keelung, discovered the excitement of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, enjoyed circle time activities, learned some soccer skills and drills and competed in an intramural tournament with students from Hsin Yi Elementary School. On the last day, Alex organized fun sports and water relay races -- the top 3 teams won ice cream treats!

Though temperatures reached highs of 38 degrees Celsius, our students remembered to drink plenty of water and move into the shade to take frequent rest breaks.

Acceptance of students into this free summer camp program was NOT based on English ability but on the basis of: disadvantaged economic circumstances, single-parent homes, aboriginal families, children from families where one parent is non-native Taiwanese, and children of school teachers and staff.

World Cup 2010

World Cup fever has taken hold! Dung Xin's one week summer camp is all about football (or, soccer, as it is known in North America). Watch these music videos at our English blog -- they celebrate the sportsmanship of the beautiful game.
