Grade 4 Spanish Teacher

 

Carmen

 

Soy Carmen Suárez, actual maestra de los 4º años. Llevo 8 años trabajando para Lancaster y tengo la camiseta muy bien puesta. Soy maestra normalista bilingüe y he trabajado con todos los grados de primaria y con adultos. Soy madre de 3 jóvenes, 2 de los cuales ya son profesionistas y el menor está actualmente en la Universidad. Creo en la libertad con responsabilidad y pienso que la primera etapa de la vida es el momento de sembrar los hábitos que guiarán nuestro comportamiento. Disfruto mi vida y me encanta ser parte de Lancaster.

 

 

Grade 4 English Teacher

 

Jan

 

 

My name is Jan McCall. I´m teaching in Grade 4 this year. I’ve been teaching for a long time and I love my job. Last year I was teaching in Spain and before that in Caracas in Venezuela for 2 years.

 

I have 4 children of my own, all grown up and independent. My eldest son lives in London, England. My eldest daughter, in New York, my younger son in Luton, England and my younger daughter, in Greece. We all love travelling and have all lived outside the UK.

 

What we have been learning:

 

 

La unidad de indagación en la que estamos trabajando se trata de cómo surgen las ciudades y cómo se organizan de acuerdo con el entorno físico. Tienen experiencia  ya que conocen bastantes lugares del país y esto nos permitirá enriquecer nuestra investigación.

 

In English we were looking at how people organize themselves in the world and how and why they make decisions about where to create their settlements. We are also going to look at how resources, climate, etc.,  change and affect settlements.

English Support Teacher

 

Ruth

 

I joined Lancaster School in 2005 and enjoyed a year of teaching Grade 5.  I currently teach ESL in Grades 3 and 4 as well as giving Maths support in Grade 3 to 5.  During my ESL time, the children consolidate their grammatical, spelling and comprehension skills.  We use a range of material including the Selections programme.  I also teach Art to all Primary Grades.

 

 

What we are learning:

 

 

In this Unit of Inquiry, we are considering the impact that we, as human beings, have on the environment and what we can do to help save the planet. We will be investigating types of pollution and their causes and in particular what we as individuals can do to help at home and at school.
