Hello, and welcome to the beginning of a new year! As a new teacher to the bilingual 

program, I am excited by the diverse curriculum and extensive facilities offered to both 

students and staff within Centro Educacional Leonardo Da Vinci. 

As the English Teacher for Grade One, my goal is to consistently challenge and improve the 

English Ability of each individual student while having fun, developing or maintaining a positive 

attitude towards the English Language. 

As a teacher from Canada, I hope to contribute elements of Canadian Culture into the grade 

one curriculum throughout the year. Valentines Day provided me with the opportunity to start 

early! The annual holiday is celebrated on February 14th in both Canada and the United States 

in honour of Saint Valentine. Valentines Day is a famous holiday celebrated differently around 

world, but in Canada the holiday is traditionally a day to celebrate friends, family and loved 

ones. Red, pink and white hearts are the most famous symbols and gifts of chocolate, flowers 

and small cards are common. 

To help the first grade students get into the Valentines Day Spirit, an Art Project incorporating 

hearts of all sizes were put together to create "Love Bugs."  Although the theme was Valentines 

Day fun, my primary objectives throughout this activity were listening and speaking based. 

During the past two weeks, I have been working with the grade one students on fundamentals 

of listening carefully to instructions, following directions, and communicating in English. This art 

project was perfect for use as students were instructed to listen carefully to directions which 

were specific in size, shape and colour. 

I was impressed with their results, as the finished project from each student reflected both their 

English Ability and Artistic Talents! 

Happy Valentines Day!
