1st and 3r grade - The legend of Saint George. The Knight, the princess and the dragon: a paper cut-out toy

Hi!

All our students celebrated Saint George making a paper cut-out toy, which represented the three main characters of this legend: the knight, the princess and the dragon.

It was not an easy task as it required to follow some steps. Each one did their best and the works were fantastic!

Here below some photos!

P5er have been checking different books about dinosaurs and so we talked about if they are big or small; the parts of the body - legs, body, neck, head, teeth, horns, tail, claws, spikes -; what they eat - plants or other dinosaurs-; where they live - water, air, forest -; the colours...

They enjoyed also seen some videos about dinosaurs time and playing some games... you can take a look on it in:  Sheppard Software's Dinosaurs

Hello everybody ! It's spring...so we use this beautiful season to learn English. We went several times to Plaza Clara to find flashcards about spring  ( a rainbow, a ladybird, a butterfly, a tree , a flower, a chicken, ) . As well we did some experiments with flowers.....and we even made a blue paint with some flowers and painted a tree with this magic paint! On our way , being in contact with nature we see many things and repeat the things we see in English. We love it !!!
I hope to post some pictures soon !

6th grade.....Working on the movie Inside Out !

Hello everybody.........not yet ...not yet .....but hopefully we can present the video after Easter.
We are working on a short interpretation  of the movie 'Inside Out'. So if you hear some shouting...laughing or crying from the yellow room. Don't worry ,it's just acting.
The students are really involved and improvise a lot using English.
So let's see what happens in the real movie of 6th grade's version of Inside Out.

5th grade - the film

We have been rwally busy these last weeks.
For sure you know it, parents!! The girls have been very strict keeping the right clothes for the recording and taking care of the extra required material.

From the idea of the story to the dialigs, everything is a genuine creation of these girls: Bàrbara, Clàudia, Júlia, Queralt and Jana.

So....you just need to wait for some days. The final video with the first chapters will be uploaded as soon as it's been edited.

How do you think it will be? We have an explorer who is afraid of machines, a butcher who is an artist, a baby who can have telepathy and read the future, a vegetarian girl and an old woman who loves car races!

Just some days to be launched!
