An excellent page for everyone!

Hi everyone! 
I have just got an excellent idea. It came to my mind an amazing web for working songs. 
There, you can sing and fill in the gaps at the same time. 
This is the "lyricstraining.com". I recommend it highly!
As we have to practise "Let it go" for next Wednesday, here you have a great example.          Click on the image and you will bump the beginner level. 
Then, if you press on play, you will find some gaps where
You have to type the missing words in.
You can press the backspace button to listen to the last sentence again and type it correctly! 
If you have some problems with the spelling you can press the tab button and the word will be written by the computer.
If you want, try with a harder level. Good luck and enjoy this song.

Octopus' Garden

Hi everyone!
It's really hot today!
I'd like to be under the sea, as this song says:
In a few days, 4thESO students from IES Pau Vila will tell you a story about pirates finding out ancient stories. 
We will hear the waves roaring and we will find out lots of surprises! 
The song above is one of them :D

Castles

Hi 5th graders! 
We've got the very beginnings of the Castles Project so we have too many things to learn. First of all, have a go at our castle drawing:

Besides that, here you have the main vocabulary in this project. 
Try to study and review it a long this month.

Castles looked cool on the outside, but they were really cold and damp. The only heating was provided by fireplaces in each room and castles had to be lit by torches because they were very dark inside.
The main furniture in the great hall were wooden benches and large tables made by wood planks across other benches. At night, the table was taken down to make room for servants who slept on the floor.
If you want to find out more information about this topic, click here
Also, here you have some posters you can download 
Finally, here you have this presentation in order to make things easy and clear.
Mireia the teacher prepared that one for her practicum two years ago.
Thank you so much Mireia.

See inside the sea

Hi everyone! 
In a few days, 4thESO students from IES Pau Vila will tell you a story about pirates finding out ancient stories. We will hear  the waves roaring and we will reach the horizon. 
Besides that,  Neptune will help us to design a better sea. 
That means that we will work on pirates next days.
So, it's time to sail a little bit...
Close your eyes and feel how your heart beats.

St. George's Day

St. George's Day is celebrated in and around Catalonia and England today.
The tradition in Catalonia says that every man offers a rose to his love and in return every woman gives a book to her love. 
In fact, the book is in memory of Cervantes, "Don Quijote's" writer.
The English tradition is a little bit different. Although they celebrate the book day, the custom is to fly or adorn the flag of England


Another important tradition is the "Jocs Florals" in our school. 
Children wrote fantastic compositions for the writing competition and each winner had a rose and a book as a present. 
So, congratulations to all of them and also to all the students in the school because everybody wrote amazing stories and nice poems.

By the way, here you have a story that reminds me a famous one. Pay attention because this one is a little bit different. Enjoy it!
