Today we have some fun with our large collection of finger-puppets and a cardboard theatre set.

 Paul will give a hint, or clue, for an animal. can you guess what it is before the curtain comes up and reveals the answer?

 Have fun!

  Paul runs through some of the years's previous vocabulary (Places Around Town) reviews directions and finishes with a review of vocabulary from unit 8, and the questions "Is there any...?" and "Are there any.....?" before giving a topical example with toilet paper and facemasks.

　As we enter the 4th week of our temporary closure due to coronavirus Covid-19, we are are starting turn our minds to the new school year.

   All being well, we hope to reopen englishpool to children's classes from the second week of April, as usual after the school spring break. To that effect today we've put details of our children's courses on the window, as with nothing happening inside englishpool we were in danger of looking like we'd closed permanently! Which is definitely not the case!

  PLEASE NOTE: Of course this is all dependent on the current advice from the government, both national and local, but basically if the Elementary Schools, Junior High Schools and High Schools return then we will follow their lead.

Paul helps you read 'a box', the third book in the Jelly and Bean series by Marlene Greenwood. He also attempts to demonstrate 'a cat in a big box'!
