Hello everyone! We are back with our native class activity! This time, Mr. Brian as the native teacher taught us to shop at the minimarket and using English to speak to the minimarket staff. Snowy’s English Bintaro wanted its students to have an experience to shop by themselves, we taught them to be brave, children had to ask for the things that they needed or wanted. So, going to the minimarket was the right choice to develop their life skill.

The minimarket that we wanted to go is near to Snowy’s English Bintaro. We just need to walk from the centre to there. For the shopping activity, each child got the shopping list which contained pictures of the things they should buy. The children also had to bring Rp. 10.000 to pay all the items. Before we all went to the minimarket, Mr. Brian and Mr. Risky gave a short explanation about the shopping steps.

The first step when the children arrived at the minimarket: they had to get the shopping basket then the children had to look at the shopping list paper what things that had to get.

Wow, so many things that we wanted to get!

Second step: after the children took all of the groceries according to the shopping list they had to pay them meanwhile at the cashier, there were Mr. Brian and the minimarket staff waiting them. The children had to speak English with them like “I want to buy this” or “How much are they?”

After the students were finish with the shopping activities they had to back to Snowy’s English Bintaro. Oh! Don’t forget to take a picture together…say cheese!

When we’re back to our center, the children couldn’t wait to enjoy the snack they just bought. Now it’s time for the children to enjoy it together in the class.

Thanks to Mr. Brian teachers and Indomaret’s staff who helped the children experience the shopping activity with lots of fun. See you in the next adventure of our native class 🙂
