Lesson 2

Revision of Ad verb / ism / tenses homework. For this week’s language structure lesson the class learnt BỊ - ĐƯỢC, CHẲNG – KHÔNG and the many uses of CÓ.

Lesson 3

More of the 800 words. This week we learnt some day-to-day stuff - colours and fruits. We learnt how to say ‘What fruit is this?’ (‘Trái này là trái gì?’) and answer ‘this fruit is ………’ (‘Trái này trái ……..’) Also the class learnt ‘What colour is this fruit?’ (‘trái này màu gì?’) and ‘The colour of this fruit is……..’ (‘Trái này màu ……’). The class was then split into four groups. Each group was given a bag of fruit and an instructor or helper would ask the above questions and the students would answer according to the handout sheet. There are a few extra words we learnt that aren’t on the sheet, they are Eggplant – Cà Tím, Pear – Lê and Apple – Táo / Bôm.

Lesson 4

New sounds UÂN – UÂNG / UÂY – UAY / UẤT – UẬT (worksheet)

Lesson 5

Michael answered questions the students had from translating story 1 of the Bible Stories book. Then the class received the translation chart for the second story so they can translate it for their homework. This is the last chart they will receive for the Bible Stories book, however they are encouraged to continue translating the book as it is an excellent exercise in getting to know grammar and sentence structure.

Lesson 6

Homework last week was to create your own presentation for offering bible studies. A few volunteers got up and did their presentations for the class, then the class spread out and practiced their presentations with the instructors and helpers.

Homework

As per homework sheet, also don’t forget to count up the number of sounds you’ve learnt so far.
