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!

Special guest (6th grade)

Hello boys and girls!

How are you?

Yesterday was a great day. We had guest at school. His name is Ryan and he's a Malasian boy who is Michael and Cristina's friend.


He has been travelling around the world and he stopped in Barcelona and made a visit in our school so students could meet him and talk to him in English.


The students had prepared many questions and asked them all to Ryan who was happy to answer all of them. The boys and girls were very interested in learning more about the countries Ryan had visited.



Now Ryan is flying back home so we want to wish him a safe flight, good luck and thanks for coming!
