WE PLAY IN 4 CORNERS

Today afternoon we have been playing in four groups. While one group was doing some activities on the Classroom, another was playing Guess who. The third goup was playing a game about telling the time and the last goup was playing Scrabble.

We enjoyed a lot while we practiced a little!

CLOTHING FOR THE UKRANIAN REFUGEES

Today have continued with organizing the material we have collected for the Ukraninan refugees. In particular we have been classifying the clothing we have collected for the afected in the War of Ukraine. We have been working by tems. At playground time, some people from the City Concil came in order to collect some specific items for a family of just arrived refugees. We have enjoyed the moment because we felt really fulfiled and with a sense of purpose.

 

WE SCALE A DRAWING

Today we have been scaling a drawing. At the begining and in a collaborative way, we have been scaling a drawing on the white board. Later, we took the grids we drawn last week and started to scale the drawings Joan and Ivet gave us. When we finished we retouched the darwing with a black fel-tip pen.

CORNERS IN TITINS

Today we have been doing corners in Tintins. The first one was about drawing the Eiffel Tower following a tutorial in English. The second one, was about creating words through Scrabble. The third was to playing describing people while playing the game: “Guess Who”.

It was fun while we practiced some speaking and listening.

It was fun while we practiced some speaking and listening.

WE CHECK IF THE HOT AIR BALOON FLIES

It’s been quite a long journe that finally drove us to the construction of our hot air balloon model. First we learn some facts about how hot air balloons where invented. Then we learned if hot air balloons fly and how to steer them. We visited Ultra Magic, a very important hot air balloon factory. We where really surprised by many facts but what it really surprised us it was how manual the process is.

The design of our first model it was from 3D figures we had to design how to build them from a paper. So we had to think a lot in order to get the drawing done. Later, we cutted out the outline and glued the model. After this process we started building a scaled envelope with real fabric from an actual hot air balloon. Ultra Magic provided us this fabric. We scaled the model 1:3 so the final envelope was three times bigger than the first prototype.

We have learned how to scale, how to design in 2D a 3D model and to solve problems along the way such as finding out silicone wasn’t suitable to stick the hot air balloon fabric. We had tons of fun!

 

 

PAINTING A CHROMATIC CIRCLE

Today in the afternoon, in Tintins, we have been painting a chromatic circle. We have talked about primary, secondary and tertiary colours. We have also talked about which are the warm and cold colours.

It has been a very interesting activity and we have enjoyed a lot.

“SNOWMAN”, THE NARRATION – MASSAGRANS

Today we have narrated “The Snowman” to the Comunitat de Petits. It was great to narrated again! We would like to congratulate the Petits because the show is quite long and they were very focused on the narration. It’s been a long process. Every Wednesday, we have been working with Raquel, our language assistaint.

We hope within this course we would be able to participate in a project like this one. We had lots of fun!
