Christmas songs to practice

Good afternoon!

It's less than a month for the Christmas holidays and we have started practicing the songs we are going to sing the last day in front of all the children and the parents.

The 5th grade students are going to sing an acoustic version of "White Christmas" Christmas carol:



The students of 6th grade are going to sing a classic song: Imagine by John Lennon. It's not a typical Christmas song but it's about love and peace, so it's perfect for this time of the year:



Here you've got the videos. You can practice at home and learn the lyrics. We will sing them in class but it's important that you practice at home too, if it's possible.

See you soon!

Present Continuous (5th grade)

Hello boys and girls!

How are you?

Today I'm posting some interesting links to practice the Present Continuous at home.

Remember the Present Continuous is used to talk about actions we are doing NOW and about the future that we have planned.

Science in Kindergarten

Hello!

We have started doing "tallers" in Kindergarten. They're about Science. One of them is in English!

This first term we are learning about VOLCANOES!

First, we talk about volcanoes and we watch some images on the screen. Then, we do our own volcano.

First, the ingredients:

We mix some water and orange paint. We stir with a spoon.


Then, more water.


Vinegar is important!


Some more...


We use a paper cone to pour everything into the volcano.


Our special ingredient: soap!


And last but not least: the baking soda!


And... TADA! Our volcano erupts and explodes... and we are delighted to see how the lava goes down.




Then we draw our own volcano eruption with lots of yellow, orange and red to make it look more explosive!
