Rock Red Riding Hood!

This is a reading in Year 3.
Children discovered a particular version of  Little Red Riding Hood and they could design their own characters.
It's a funny story to read and to practice comprehension. 
After that, you can improve their speaking skills through a performance.

Alice in Playmobil Land


Hi you all!
As you know, Sabadell received a great exposition about clicks last weekend.
 I was thinking and thinking of an amazing idea. 
What about to make movies with your clicks?
I have a good example. Have a look and try to do an easy one. 
You'll practice English in a fun way and I will be very happy of watching it.

Clicks Exposition in our city

Hi you all!
Do you know the great news?
Sabadell has an important exposition: 
playmobils in Fira Sabadell!
It's a 4000mt2 paradise for everybody, including adults (me as an example) who collect or who enjoy and play with them. That’s because playmobil is one of those toys for which no time passes. 
In that exposition you can discover raffles, games and movies about clicks. 
What are you waiting for going to? 
Say to your family and enjoy the moment!
If you click on the pic above, you will find some photos from that exposition. 
One more time, thanks Salva for your pics.

Take action to protect Oceans!

We will celebrate the World Oceans day next Saturday, June 8th.
As first graders are working on sea animals, it's an excellent moment to make a promise in order to have better Oceans and to protect sea animals.
For that reason, today I'm worried about puffins.
Puffins are charming birds, with their colorful beaks and expressive eyes.
  Scientists are worried about the high levels of puffin starvation 

(they are very hungry)
We're putting them at risk due to rising ocean temperatures which disturb their food sources :(



So, make a promise to clean and reduce rubbish and your carbon footprint for World Oceans Day and the puffins!

We are friends

1st graders are very enthusiastic about Goldilocks and the three bears Story. We've worked it in the English lessons and we've learnt the difference between big, small and tiny. That made me think about an easy diversity poem I learnt some years ago. I thought of teaching it to children because it fosters respect and appreciation for others. Here you have it:
