Shark in the Park

One of our 6th grade students offered her classmates a great storytelling time.  I have to say storytelling is not an easy activity to carry out.  To act out the story at the same time it is read or explained, so that the listeners enjoy and understand what it is all about, is a difficult task.  

I invite you to watch the video clicking on the picture that goes along with this text and enjoy as much as we did in the classroom with this hilarious and funny story called "Shark in the park" by Nick Sharratt.  

Classroom routines

Here you are a video where you can see our little students at P4 acting out some classroom routines or actions.  They learn these routines all throughout Kindergarten since P3 up to P5; we usually work them out at the beginning of a lesson, so they break with their previous classroom activity with their tutor and start listening and singing in a joyful way their English lesson.  Fancy having a look at P4 students? Click on the picture to watch the video. Ready-O, let's go!

Hello, good morning!

"Hello, good morning! How are you today?" 

Here you are the first words students listen when I enter the classroom. And after some time practicing their answer, they have finally completed the process of learning it. That is to say, now they say "Hello, good morning! I'm fine, thanks!" 

Now it's time for you to watch them and let them practise at home ... are you ready? Let's go!

Bonfire Night

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November..."

Tonight is the date of an exciting and controversial data in the History of London and the UK.  Bonfire Night is celebrated to remember the night of the 5th November 1605 when a group of men tried to blow the Parliament up.  Guy Fawkes is the most popular of these group of men who lead the Gunpowder Plot, but I really suggest you to have a look at the links on the pictures to learn more about this bit of history ... 

Spooky Cookie Lesson

6th year students took a SPOOKY COOKIE LESSON last Thursday to celebrate Halloween.  They brought biscuits, cookies, chocolate creams, jams, toppings, and anything they liked.  The aim of the lesson was to make their own Halloween desserts with products we all have in the kitchen at home.  We all had fun creating spiders with Oreo biscuits and Mikado chocolate sticks, or decorating Maria biscuits so that they ended up being spiders ... here you are some examples.

Keep calm and ... ride safe!

Here you are a couple of videos of riding bikes.  The first one is made by a professional and you are not recommended to try his tricks.

The second video is about the rights and the duties of cyclists.  It is a video based in the USA traffic rules, but for sure we can apply many of them here in our country.  

I hope you enjoy the videos and ride your bikes as much as you can, always safe and right.  Have fun!
