Happy Halloween!

Hi everyone,

It's Halloween time !

Click on the picture below and you will find lots of games and activities about this celebration.

Halloween/castanyada time

The leaves have changed into their fall colors and the breeze is in the air. Halloween is right around the corner and it's time for "castanyada" too. Today we have a special celebration at school. Most of families have brought chestnuts and delicious cakes to school and 6th graders have prepared lots of games for the rest of students at school. So you are probably exciting and waiting for the afternoon. 

Nevertheless, remember that we are working on the Halloween theme. Never fear because there is still a lot of funny activities we will do in our English lessons.
Well here there are two of them: a song that was written and performed by A.J.Jenkins and the Halloween chants.

Science and Halloween

Here you have an easy sandwich to make for this special day!

JACK-O'-LANTERN TOAST
You need:

Take two slices of bread and a slice of cheese for them to make a sandwich. Previosly cut out eyes and a mouth in one of the slices. Toast the sandwiches and eat them while still warm. Delicious!

Before we move...let's review prepositions

3rd graders have studied a list of commonly used prepositions  Prepositions are used in a sentence to show location such as in front of, next to, behind, or under.Tomorrow we will do a cut-and-paste activity that will work on spatial concepts and has a Halloween theme.  You will also ask "where" questions after completing the activity.

Basic vocabulary for 3rd graders

Hi everyone!

3rd graders are learning the English alphabet. Among different activities I want to show you some poems they wrote playing with their names. The presentation below show you a summary of them because they worked individually and thought about a thing they liked. I tried to copy what they described.

  

Peppa Pig and the stars

1stA group has a new name: "The Stars"

Children and me have been talking about them. Children were astonished about what a star is (if you want more information, look at 1st group page on your left of the screen)

Fortunately we found this short movie about Peppa Pig and we enjoyed a lot. Thanks Peppa for being so cute!

Red Riding Hood and Peppa Pig

Why do some leaves change their color in Autumn?

Every Autumn in all the forests of the world, there is a miraculous change in the color of the leaves. They turn from green into brilliant shades of yellow, orange, red, and gold. Sometimes you can see several shades on the same leaf. But why are these color changes happening, and what is going on in the plant?
Read this explanation and you will understand!
Plants make their own food. They take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. They turn water and carbon dioxide into food using sunlight and something called chlorophyll. This one is green. It gives leaves their green color.

Winter days are short and dry. Many plants stop making food in Autumn. Then, the chlorophyll goes away. Then we can see different colours as orange, yellow, red, gold and also brown. When they are brown, it comes from wastes left in the leaves.
Watch the video!
