Show and tell in 5th grade

In March and April our 5th graders have presented one of their favourite objects to their class and talked about it. This activity is called Show and tell.

All the students have brought an object from home and they have explained in English why they chose that particular item, where they got it, and other important information. Then the other students asked questions about it.

Building sentences in 1st grade

The 1st graders of our school have been learning about pets, their adjectives and how to make sentences about them.

In groups, we ordered the words in the correct way to make affirmative, negative and interrogative sentences.

We have also talked about our pets and the ones we would like to have at home and where they live: inside or outside.

Our vegetable garden

The first graders of the school want to present you all the work we have done in our vegetable garden.

We started in April, in Science workshop, by preparing the land and planting the seeds of four vegetables: radish, carrot, lettuce and spinach. We watered them and waited for the results.

We recorded all the growing process in a lapbook and we also visited a vegetable garden in Golmés.

The 4th graders meet penfriends from Greece

The students from 4th grade have started a new Etwinning project called “Let’s be penfriends” with other 4th graders from Thessaloniki (in Greece).

The first activity has been introducing ourselves to the Greek students by writing our descriptions on a website and include a photo of ourselves with numbers in order they can guess “who is who”. The students from Greece have done the same activity and you can see us in the following photos trying to know the name of each student in the photos.

Show and tell in 5th grade

From the month of October to the month of December, each of the students from 5th grade has presented which is his/her favourite object to the classmates.

The first minutes of each lesson were devoted to give three clues to the others who had to guess what was the object. Once they knew it, they showed it and explained why it was so important for them. Then they asked questions about it.

It has been a funny and motivating activity for the students and at the same time they were learning English.

E-twinning project: Sharing makes us wiser

During all this school year the students from 4th grade have been carrying out an E-twinning project with a portuguese school in Aveiras de Cima.

We started in November with a first contact where students wrote a letter about themselves explaining how they are, likes and dislikes… Then they sent us Christmas and Easter cards. We also exchanged the information about our Catalan traditions and costums. In the last term, we talked about our villages and schools. Finally, we shared our summer plans.

We have improved our skills and intercultural dimensions by using English as a means of communication with our penpals from Portugal.
