Group Report
This group of five years old is the only section of kindergarten in this institution in the morning shift. Most of the studetns have been in nurseries but they haven´t had any kind of experience with the language, therefore this term is their first experience with English lessons.
In consequence, their level of English is beginners. They know greetings, colours and numbers from one to ten.
