English As a Foreign Language Class Grade 3 

During our EFL classes, my Grade 3 students were engaged in a collaborative activity.  The children had to read a book Earth's Water, choose a topic they wanted to focus on (eg. Uses of Water, Water Pollution, etc) and create a poster in a small group of 3 students. 
While working on the posters my students were involved in meaningful discussions about the new facts they learned from the book. They also argued about which photos to use, asked and answered numerous questions. It was exciting to observe their choice of strategies and to hear the academic language of the unit in use.

Meyher consulted with Miss Boramey while creating a poster.

Helmi, Daylin and Irrham created a great poster about how people use water.
