This semester there were some new students who joined our service group and we shared our experiences from previous semester with them to give them an idea of what we’ll be doing for the rest of the semester. This semester with new people who joined the service group we continued with our reading. We read some books to them and asked them some basic questions about what they heard while listening to them and then we asked them to read stories to us to make sure they also engage in those activities. This was really fun and we also asked them to make some questions for us about the book they read, so, that they get a better understanding of the book that they read. We were given marks for answering the questions that they asked about the books they read, and each person who answers the question were given one mark and we were given more marks as we answers more questions. The idea was to improve their English Language skills by letting them hear and talk in English. It was really fun to share stories with them and was also really fun to listen to the stories that they read for us.

As we wanted to try something different next quarter, Mr. De Silva came up with a new plan for them to help them improve their English vocabulary skills. We are planning to make a spelling contest for them in the upcoming weeks which we are looking forward to and we hope that it will be really fun.
