P4 What's the weather?

 We painted with all the colours to make a RAINBOW mobile!
Is it sunny?
Is it raining?
Is it cloudy?
Is it hot or cold?
We read a lovely story about Maisy Mouse and the weather!
We are playing games about the weather- stormy, windy, cloudy, raining, snowing, etc. 

and today.... IT IS SNOWING!!! We put on our JACKETS and GLOVES and BOOTS- and made a SNOWMAN!!!



or maybe it's a SNOW MONSTER!!!!

2B My 5 senses

We are making a book about MY 5 SENSES!!
I SEE with my eyes
I HEAR with my ears
I SMELL with my nose
I TASTE with my tongue
I TOUCH with my fingers and hands

We did a taste test of different flavours: Sweet like sugar, sour like lemons, bitter like goji berries, salty like salt!
" I like it!"  or  "I DON"T like it!" 

Then we made cameras!
We took our cameras to the Plaza Clara to SEE what we could SEE!!
" I see my friend"
"I see a bird"
"I see trees" and many, many more things!
We made a page in out books about the things we see in the plaza.


 "SMILE!!!"


 


4A Becoming Ninjas!


We learned to play a game called ninja! It is a card game with colourful illustrations about BEING a ninja. BE  BALANCED, KIND,  HONEST, GENEROUS, CREATIVE, HELPFUL, TOLERANT etc.
We continue to play different games with the cards, learning the vocabulary and making examples with the verb "to be". For example: I am helpful when I take out the rubbish!
We play memory and guessing games with the cards too. 

At the moment are working on our individual books about:
WHO AM I?
MY SKILLS
MY QUALITIES
MY FAVOURITE THINGS
and ......



This is an ongoing project, which will take more time to complete, as there are diverse activities and concepts involved.
We created the cover page and tied the inside pages together.
We practiced speaking about ourselves and a small description of who we are.
We took a photo to put in our book.

Now we are working on our skills pages and drawings:

                                           "I am good at acting" 
"I am good at playing football"                         "I am good at time-keeping" 
                                    "I am good at cooking mushroom omelettes!"

6th grade -Project: A brochure of Great Britain

Hello to everyone,

After having baked muffins, we started a new project about Great Britain. 

My idea is the students get closer to Great Britain, For that reason, I think that discovering its culture and customs, its towns and cities, or its landscsape and natural parks might be an effective way to keep their attention towards English, which is, actually, what we all wish!

The project has two steps. First, we watched a video about Great Britain and its main features or topics. It was a good listenning activity, and they did a great effort to understand it. After that, we discussed about what it has been understood and what not, and made an outline and a list of the main topics that had appeared on the video.

Second, we made up a brochure of Great Britain, which explained the most important and interesting features of Great Britain.  For doing so, we splitted in groups, and made sentences, and made decisions about the design (pictures, the font, its size...). 

We have been working on its second part of the project since last week. It's almost finished. We are going to post the brochures to the blog as soon as we can.


Bye for now!

1B - A special Friday, making a free topic session with clay


Hello again,

As we started new semester and that we just met us, we decided to do something different: A free topic session with clay. Each of the students could make whatever figure they occured.

Neither rules nor commands for just a day! Just imagination!

They had fun moulding clay with their own hands, for sure!

The figures were amazing and surprising!

Here below some pictures of this special session!

Enjoy it!

3rd grade - What can you do? I can... activity

Hello again,

This week, we focused on jobs and their roles by doing different activities and dynamics at class. First, we approach to this new topic by learning such jobs and roles. Then, we played to a true or false game to understand each job and what its role can be and what it cannot be. Finally, we introduced the modal verb "can" to make sentences related to it by doing different activities and dynamics around the class again.


Apart from that, we also spent some time to 14th February, lovers' celebration by making a craft that students decorated on their way. You can find a couple of pictures of it on a new post, entitled "14th February, Saint Valentine's Day".

Here below you can see some pictures that are a sample of what we talk about.


Keep in contact!

Bye!
