Hi there!👋

Here you are an interesting video📹 about how children describe their emotions and feelings😃😒😖😡, and how they manage to control them.  It is very descriptive, and it can help us think on how we deal with our emotions and feelings, too.  And how we manage to control them, as well.

Hi there!

Once more, ARCE Pedala week was here and both children and teachers had a great time , surrounded by bikes, literally!

In the English lessons, children had the opportunity to experience cycling clothes and complements, real material provided by an enthusiastic teacher who is a bike addict.  I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I did when taking them.  Bike safe!

Aliona delighted her classmates and teacher with this storytelling activity in an English lesson.  She had prepared this popular nursery rhyme at home with her mum, and she had even drawn the different stages of the story.  Once at school, she asked me for permission to carry out the activity and ... I couldn't say no! 

Jungle Book

Theatre day for Cicle Inicial pupils at Bartrina Theatre.  Our students enjoyed a play based on the famous Jungle Book story written by R.Kipling and performed by Open Theatre company.  All in all, a great time in this wonderful theatre where Cicle Inicial students could learn to be a good audience, as well as have fun with the adventures of Mowgli, Baloo, Bagheera, Kaa and Sher Khan.
