Activity 1: My Favourite Toy Show and Tell
Next week, we will have a favourite toy show-and-tell. Please ask your child to bring in their favourite toy on Friday (08 Oct). If it is not possible, please can you take a photo of your child with his/her toy. E-mail your photo/s to china@westcourt.kent.sch.uk.
This is a good opportunity for children to develop their language skills and share something personal to them with their friends. Please help your child prepare for the show-and-tell by discussing with them what they like about their toy.
Here are some questions to guide you:
(1) What is your favourite toy? Does it have a name? (2) Describe your toy. (3) Who gave it to you? (4) What can your toy do? (5) How do we look after our toys? | ![]() |
