Lesson 2
In this class, we reviewed the direction words (left, right, next to, between, and opposite). We also reviewed the new vocabulary from last lesson (record shop, bank, station, supermarket, restaurant, and hotel). We then learned the sentence structure "The [PLACE] is on the left", and we practiced using a map in our book, as well as a map of Seoul street, which Marie drew on the chalkboard, eg:
The theatre is on the left.
The embassy is on the right.
The record shop in on the right.
The restaurant is on the left.
etc.
Lesson 1
In this lesson, we reviewed how to introduce ourselves and say where we come from. We learned a song/chant, and we added one more stanza saying about ourselves. It went like this:
My name is [NAME],
And I'm from Mongolia.
How are you, how are you,
And how are you today?
Then, we moved on to Unit 2, in which we learned some words for giving directions.
turn left* --> turn towards your left side
turn right* --> turn towards your right side
next to --> beside
between --> has two things on either side of it
opposite --> across from something
I also taught the kids my special trick for remembering left from right. Stick just your thumb and forefinger out. The one that makes an "L" shape is your left hand ("L" is for 'left'). The one that makes a backward "L" is your right hand.
We also learned some vocabulary in this lesson:
record shop --> where you buy CDs or music
bank --> where you keep your money
station --> where you catch a train or bus
supermarket --> where you buy food to cook at home, supplies for your home, and things like soap and shampoo
restaurant --> where you go to eat a meal which somebody else cooks for you
hotel --> where you sleep when you are on vacation
