Animal Project

6th year students have carried out a project about animals.  They have searched for information about an animal they had previously chosen.  Then, they have written a description and to finish with, they have exposed their project.  And that last part is what we are showing you all in this post.  
Please, feel free to click on the names to enjoy our animal experts videos. Grrrrr!!!!


P.S.: Most of the boys and girls in this group have been my students for the last 9 years. Others, have joined ARCE school along Primary Education.  In a few days, they are going to put an end to all these years together and they are going to start ESO.  It's been a pleasure having you all, teaching you English and guiding you on these first years at school.  Thanks to all of you.  All the best!

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!

Pony Boy by P4

P4 students are here to delight you with their own version of Pony Boy, lullaby written by Bruce Springsteen.  This is one of the songs we sing at the end of every lesson to chill out before saying good bye.  And after a year and a half at Escola ARCE, it seems they have learnt it quite well.  Fancy watching the video and singalong? Let's go!

PS: Focus on the children and forget about the poor singing qualities of the teacher.
