Walking in the jungle

Hello!

The students of P5 are becoming real explorers in class. We like singing and dancing to this SuperSimpleSong "Walking In The Jungle. It's great fun!

We walk around the class in a big circle and we find different animals. We see a frog, a monkey, a toucan and a baby tiger. But we are not afraid!

Sing the song and watch the video at home:

Ocean Animals Project

It's the last week of this school year 2012-2013!

But we are still doing many interesting things!

The students of 5th level have presented a project this week. It's a Power Point project about Ocean Animals they have done in groups of 3.

They chose an ocean animal and they looked for information about it. This week they have presented the projects in front of the class and they are great!

Here you can see some images:














Here you can give a look at some of the Power Points:





















We hope that you like them!

Animal descriptions

Pupils of 3rd Grade have been working on descriptions of animals. We learnt these sentences to make our texts (oral and written):

- It's ...  big/small, tall/short, fast/slow...

- It's ...  yellow, green, brown, black, white,...

- It has got ... 2 legs, 4 legs, 2 arms, a long neck, a short tail, claws, a big body, 2 wings, 2 horns, 2 ears, ...

- It can ... / It can't ...   fly, swim, run, walk, jump, hunt,....


- It eats ...   fruit, fish, meat, plants, grass, insects, leaves,...


After some oral practice, we wrote compositions. We made animal descriptions and our classmates had to guess them:



















Cristina brought this funny book from the Natural History Museum, in London...



















...and we decided to create a similar one:





We used our books to play a guessing game in pairs:

        Has it got...?
           Yes, it has.
           No, it hasn't.






For example (video):

Numbers and colours

The boys and girls of P5 like very much learning and practising the NUMBERS AND THE COLOURS.

In class we do many activities and games where the children have to say the colours of the animals, objects or clothes they are wearing. The same with the numbers, little by little they are learning the numbers up to 20.
Here you can watch two videos of the children singing about these two topics.

You can also watch the original videos we use in class and practise at home, it can be very funny!

Come on pirates, let's go to the theatre!

Today the boys and girls of 5th and 6th grade have been to the theatre in Vilanova i la Geltrú.

It has been a great morning. They play has been easy to understand, funny and entertaining. Most of the students liked it. Some of them have been up on stage.

We like helping animals!

Today in the playground the boys and girls of Kindergarten have found this LOVELY BIRD!

It is very SMALL and it can only FLY low.



Quicky they have called the teachers and we have helped him go back to the TREE.

There, it has waited for MUMMY and DADDY BIRD.

We are all very happy to save our friend, the bird.



Why don't you think of a NAME for the bird???? Write your ideas in the comments section.
