Year 1 groups

P1 Niktbu, npingu, hawn hafna kotba, noqghodu nitkellmu, nitghallmu, l-isem, Johnny, klassi, kif konna bilqeghda.

P2 Li nzommu lil Timmy u li noqghodu npingu, li nkunu flimkien, meta laghbna li kollox isir helu, meta pingejna l-annimali.

P3 Inpengu, bl’isem, niktbu, Johnny bear, nghidulek l-affarijiet, nahsbu (after probing). The chldren do not even remember the names of the tools. Finally someone commented - Fil-klassi ma naghmlux hekk.

P4 Il-CAF, inpingu l-animal masks, meta npingu fil-pitazz (Special Book), meta tistaqsina l- mstoqsijiet, ghogbuna 'Timmy' u 'Bucky'.

Year 2 groups

P5 Special Book, inpingu, l-kotba, Johnny Bear, l-HW, il-klassi (library), nahsbu.

P6 Li noqghodu nahsbu, nitkellmu, nilghabu, inpingu u niktbu fl-Special Book. Hadna gost inzommu lil Timmy f'idejna. It-topic tal-hbieb (project), li nsellfu l-affarijiet bhal kuluri lil xulxin meta nkunu qed inpingu, waqt li nahsbu. Is-siggijiet forma ta' cirku. L-affarijiet li qed indendlu.

 

Year 3 groups

P7 Nahsbu, L-PMI, il-CAF, tghallimna fuq l-ambjent, ghogbuni s-sigar, nitkellmu, Johnny Bear, L-Special Book.

P8 L-aktar li ghogobna kien il-CAF, ghogobna wkoll l-APC. Ghogobna kif konna nkunu bil-qeghda forma ta’ cirku u Timmy u Bucky.

P9 Tghallimna fuq l-ambjent, hadt pjacir inpingi, tghallimna x’jigifieri CAF u APC, il-HW kien interessanti, hadt pjacir nitghallem, ma noqghodux nitbandlu fuq is-siggu. Ma noqtlux l-annimali, hadna pjacir nitkellmu, sabiha ghax nitghallmu.

P10 Li kellu kulhadd cans jitkellem u kollha ppruvajna. M’hemm xejn milli ghidna li hu tajjeb jew hazin. Li kulhadd ipprova jahseb fuq kull ghodda. L-aktar li ghogbuna kienu APC, CAF u PMI u li niktbu u npingu fil-pitazz. X’ ma ghogbokx f’ dawn il-lezzjonijiet?

Year 1 groups

P1 Johnny, inpingi ghax niddejjaq.

P2 Li konna niktbu hafna fuq il- karti l-kbar. Li ftit minna morna l-hemm u ftit bqajna hawn.

P3 Pupils had no comments here.

P4 Li nibdlu l-kamra. Ma nhobbx lil Bucky. Meta ghamilna PMI.

Year 2 groups

P5 Ahjar ma l-ohrajn kollha flimkien. Ma nhobbx inpingi.

P6 Ftit hin wisq, ahjar ikollna aktar lezzjonijiet u ma nghagglux daqshekk. Il-hin filghodu kmieni. Ma ghogbitniex nahdmu fuq l-idea ta 3 idejn. Li qsamna l-klassi u gejna ftit tfal. L-I tal-PMI veru kienet tqila /ma fhimthiex. Il-FIP kellna ftit hin ghaliha.

Year 3 groups

P7 Il-cushions, inpingi, ftit hin, l-ambjent/ tpingijiet.

P8 Il-PMI tqila wisq. Meta hdimna fuq l-idea ta’ dar that il-bahar/ Klassi bla saqaf.

P9 Ghandna ftit hin. Tools hawnhekk biss.

P10 L- I tal- PMI kienet tqila. Il-M tista’ tkun wisq bi zantaggi. Fil-bidu t-topics kienu xi ftit tqal biex nahsbu fuqhom. Forsi kellna bzonn aktar games bhal ta’ l-ewwel lezzjoni.

 

Other comments

Year 1 groups

P1, P2Nistghu naghmlu xi loghob u npingu aktar. Tghallimna nibzghu ghall- ambjent u li l-iskola nitghallmu nobdu r-rules bhal ma ngibux helu.

P3, P4Nixtiequ aktar hin fuq l-annimali, inpingu aktar animals bhat-tigra. Meta npingu forsi nuzaw z-zebgha. Tghallimna kif niktbu l-bebbuxu tal-CAF,PMI (signs) u npingu.

Year 2 groups

P5 Nistghu niktbu aktar, nitghallmu izjed, nobdu aktar, l-ewwel ma naghmlux tat-3 idejn naghmlu nahsbu f’kollox jew FIP, APC, inpingu aktar, naghmlu xi HW fuq dawn il- lezzjonijiet. F’dawn il- lezzjonijiet tghallimt nikteb ftit, nitkellem, inpingi, nzomm lil Timmy, nahseb ftit..

Year 3 groups

P7 Forsi nistghu nahdmu fuq topic ta’ xi monsters jew dinosaurs. Ahjar inpingu aktar. Nibdlu l-klassi u nuzaw il-Library. Tghallimna nitkellmu wara xulxin f’din il-klassi, nahsbu ftit ahjar u kif naraw l-P u M ta’ xi haga b’subghajna. Nistghu noqghodu flimkien il-klassi kollha.

P9 L-ambjent tal-kamra jista’ jkun differenti – forsi nistghu npoggu fuq xi cushions. Ma niktbux fil-pitazz izda npingu biss. Innehhu l-PMI u naghmlu xi haga aktar facli. Ikollna aktar hin biex inpingu, ma nghagglux daqshekk. Inkunu kollha f’daqqa u mhux naqsmu l-klassi. Il-CAF u l-FIP uzajnihom fil-klassi meta kellna nistudjaw t-tables ghax importanti hafna u meta nippreparaw ghall- outings, compositions, competitions (Karnival). Fl-iskols uzajnihom per ezempju inkunu ghaddejin bil-lessons, jigi xi hadd jew xi haga – nitilqu kollox malajr u nibdlu l- programm. Id-dar uzajnihom meta per ezempju navzaw lil mummy x’ghandna bzonn ghall- outings (CAF). F’ dawn il-lezzjonijiet tghallimna nitkellmu kollha wara xulxin, nimmaginaw aktar, nahsbu ftit aktar fuq kollox, nisimghu lil xulxin.
