Before COVID, preschools and elementary schools in the USA taught children to dance with ribbons around a pole on May 1.
Did you ever celebrate May Day? What did you do?

Home Sweet Home
What makes a house your home?
A very long time ago, I had a student take my class because he failed the English exam needed to go to college in his country. The exam asked the difference between a house and a home. He wrote an essay on the difference between a horse and a home. Spelling matters. One letter sometimes makes a big difference.
If you love your home here in the USA, please give advice to the people who are making this new place their home.
Describe some things you like about your home.

We are family...
Practice family vocabulary 2 (with learning chocolate)
Do you have a big family? Who works hard? Who cooks? Who likes to go outside?
(I grew up in a small family. I had five children, so many people in the USA think I have a big family. My daughter works hard. She's a real estate agent. She also likes to cook. My husband cooks a lot. My daughter-in-law cooks very well. Most of my family likes to stay inside, but my third child loves to run and ride a bicycle.)

Who did you meet today?

April Fools!
On April 1, people play pranks on each other. They try to trick people in a funny way. On April Fools a few years ago, all the teachers changed classes in my children's elementary school for the first ten minutes. Some children were really upset, but most of them laughed when they realized it was a trick.
Did you ever play a trick or be tricked on April 1st? What happened?
