Hello everybody and welcome to our English blog! 👋

This blog has been created with the idea of helping students to review at home the topics they are working on in the English classroom. So, here, you will find some material that is being used in the classroom, other material that will be useful to reinforce their linguistic skills and some information related to activities that have been developed.

We hope you enjoy it!

Murder on the Orient Express

What an interesting novel! These weeks we’ve been reading Agatha Christie’s masterpiece Murder on the Orient Express. It’s an intriguing book that breaks all your moulds of who can be the murderer. It has kept students on the edge of their seats until the end! As you can see below, students have designed amazing covers for their reading dossiers. If you haven’t read it, then it is a classic crime novel and you should give it a chance.

HELLO SPRING!

2nd_ I am lucky because…

During this last week of the second term, we have been doing several activities about St. Patrick’s in the English class.

Second-graders did an activity that involved Arts and Crafts and English. Students thought about what makes them feel lucky, and they wrote some sentences about them and about what they have. They had a lot of ideas!

Here you have some examples:

 

4th. Easter word hunt

Taking advantage that today was the last session of the term before the Easter break, we played an Easter word hunt. We’ve been looking for different flashcards to practice some Easter vocabulary. It’s been hilarious and competitive!
