The food train

Today it's 1st graders' turn!
They are learning a chant to practice food vocabulary.

When we split the group, I put masking tape down on the floor to look like train tracks. Children and me line up and put our hands on the shoulder of the person in front of us. Then, we walk around like a train meanwhile we say the chant.

St. Patrick's Day is coming!

Hi you all!
St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner! It's celebrated on March 17th!
This is the anniversary of the day St. Patrick died many hundreds of years ago. But... who was St. Patrick? 
He lived in the fifth century, that's more than 1.500 years ago! 
St. Patrick is Ireland's patron saint. 
That means that people from Ireland believe that he protects them.
However, there are many thousands of people around the world who celebrate this special Irish holiday, as Martha in Buffalo explained to us two years ago. 
Students will have the opportunity to have some information about that celebration with this presentation. They also will learn what a shamrock is  and  some vocabulary about the legend with this wordsearch




Also, here you have some recipes and craft ideas to celebrate this special day!

Birds project

Hi you all!
2nd graders are working on birds.
They learnt some vocabulary around this topic and they discovered some words as beak, feather, wings, talon, nest, egg, bird and chick.
Here you have an wonderful video by The Cornell lab of Ornithology
Although it's a little bit difficult to understand for very young children, it's worthy to watch it. Enjoy the images and the pics. Below the video, you will find more explanations about this amazing project!

The Birds-of-Paradise Project reveals the  beauty of 39 of the most exquisitely specialized animals on earth. After 8 years and 18 expeditions to New Guinea, Australia, and nearby islands, Cornell Lab scientist Ed Scholes and National Geographic photojournalist Tim Laman succeeded in capturing images of all 39 species in the bird-of-paradise family for the first time ever. This trailer gives a sense of their monumental undertaking and the spectacular footage that resulted. Filmed by Tim Laman, Ed Scholes, and Eric Liner.
