A new recipe

We are great witches!

Today we had to create new, amazing recipes so that kids would not turn into mice, but into something different. You managed to create fantastically horrible recipes... with disgusting results! 

Well done 5th form!

Miss Luchi.

Mice everywhere!

Acting out

Today you really surprised me and the teachers around because they didn't know what was going around... You were all mice! How nasty you were! But you were excellent actors and actresses who could use English in a very meaningful way. And most importantly, you showed feelings through your characters, which is something not very easy. Fantastic result 5th Form! Please, go on working this way! I'm sure it's the key to enjoy reading!

And... are you thinking about the new recipe? Don't forget about it!

¡Nos preparamos para la feria! 

Con el propósito de favorecer el conocimiento, respeto y cumplimiento de los derechos de niños y adolescentes, comenzaremos a leer un cuento de Javier Villafañe sobre  "LA IDENTIDAD".

Witches and more witches!

What are witches like?

Remember that witches are different women... but you should also remember that witches can be any woman you see around you... even your Literature teacher! Hahahaha!

Nice pictures!

Miss Luchi.

World Cup... coming too soon!

" The greatest Treasure"

To introduce our new unit, we watch a wondeful video. We talk about the different stages of a story and as we watch , we should jot down adjectives representing the main events of the introduction, conflict and ending!

HAVING FUN!!!

 

 

 

After watching we find out something great!!! One of our best treasures is FRIENDSHIP!!!

The Witches

Reading is great fun!

I love our Literature lessons! Thank you for showing so much interest in the lessons and in the book. I enjoy the reading moments a lot with you. And you are making a great effort to read with passion and energy... and some of you seem to be real witches when you read!

See you on Wednesday kids! Hmmm... have you eaten chocolates today? If I were you I would be very careful tomorrow, at 9 o'clock. Let's cross our fingers so that you are not changed into a mouse! Hahahahaha!

Miss Luchi.

Brazil!

The World Cup

Thursday will be the great day for the Brazilian... the World Cup is starting! 

You investigated and you found lots of information about the neighbour country. The poster that is in the Hall looks amazing! Well done!

Miss Luchi.

Hello everyone! How are you doing? In just two days you'll be presenting your mascot. Are you getting it ready? I don't know how you're feeling, but I'm really excited about your proposals! I can't wait to see them!

Miss Luchi.

Examen de matemática

El próximo viernes 13 de junio evaluaremos los siguientes temas:

* múltiplos y divisores.

* criterios de divisibilidad.

* situaciones problemáticas.

* fracciones.

Presentaciones interactivas del cuerpo humano.

Los alumnos de quinto estuvieron investigando los sistemas del cuerpo humano, para ello se dividieron en grupos, cada grupo debió investigar un sistema distinto del cuerpo humano, el que luego, deberían explicar a sus compañeros convirtiéndose en profesores por un día, ya que también elaboraron tres preguntas referidas a sus explicaciones que debían responder sus compañeros.
Las presentaciones las hicieron con una herramienta interactiva thinglinks.

 

Comparto las presentaciones de algunos alumnos, todas estuvieron excelentes.

Types of narrator

Let's revise a bit

Are you studying for our Literature test? Remember that it's on Wednesday!
Last week we saw different kinds of narrator. In order to practise, I want you to look at these examples and decide which is the narrator (first, second or third) in each paragraph. Write your answers as a comment!

Come on! Yo can do it! These are the extracts:

1. “When Mr. Botibol woke the next morning he lay quite still for several minutes with his eyes shut, listening for the sound of the wind, waiting for the roll of the ship. There was no sound of any wind and the ship was no trolling. He jumped up and looked out of the window.”

(A Swim, by Roald Dahl).

2. “There were six of us at dinner that night at Mike Schofield’s house in London: Mike and his wife and daughter, my wife and I, and a man called Richard Pratt.”

(Taste, by Roald Dahl).

3. “For young and old alike, a trip to the beach means relaxation, adventure, and a temporary escape from the worries and responsibilities of ordinary life. Whether swimming or surfing, tossing a volleyball or just snoozing in the sand, a visit to the beach means fun. The only equipment you need is a twelve-inch deep pail, a small plastic shovel, and plenty of moist sand.”

(How to build a sand castle).

4. “I was born in the working-class. Early I discovered enthusiasm, ambition, and ideals; and to satisfy these became the problem of my child-life. My environment was crude and rough and raw. I had no outlook, but an uplook rather. My place in society was at the bottom. Here life offered nothing but sordidness and wretchedness, both of the flesh and the spirit; for here flesh and spirit were alike starved and tormented.”

(What life means to me, by Jack London).

5. “Rub a little on the back of your neck, your forehead and your wrists before you start fishing, and the blacks and skeeters will shun you. The odour of citronella is not offensive to people. It smells like gun oil. But the bugs do hate it.”

(Camping Out, by Ernest Hemingway).

6. “When Jane and Elizabeth were alone, the former, who had been cautious in her praise of Mr. Bingley before, expressed to her sister how very much she admired him."

(Pride and Prejudice, by Jane Austen).

Getting ready for the World Cup

Hello everyone! Remember that we're getting ready for the next Football World Cup. And so, we're studying about the countries which will take part in the competition. Remember that, as we are not having a term test, you have to hand in your assignment about one of the countries on Tuesday.

I'm sure you'll get a very good mark!

Good luck!

Playing with names

Meanings for names!

In Literature, we played with our names, using each of our letters to write a word that represents us in some way. You were really original!

How much information!

Science and Social Studies

These weeks, we have been working with the different landforms and we have copied a lot in our folders!

But we have also worked with our maps and we have marked all the countries in the American continent. 

If you click here, you can have a look at all the maps we have looked at. Enjoy studying and learning!

Remember that... the World Cup is waiting for us!

Comenzamos a trabajar con "Edmodo"

Hace unas semanas les propuse a los chicos de quinto comenzar a transitar el camino del e-learning a través de una plataforma especialmente diseñada para educación llamada Edmodo.
El desafío es grande...¡pero pusimos manos a la obra!.
Primero creamos entre todos "el acuerdo esencial" de uso de la plataforma explicitando todas las actividades que podemos hacer y la manera en que tenemos que comportarnos en este espacio de aprendizaje virtual, que quedó pegado en el aula y que seguiremos construyendo en la medida que surjan nuevas reglas y necesidades.
Luego cada alumno se registró en la clase de Miss Silvina para empezar a trabajar. Al principio nos costó un poquito recordar los usuarios y contraseñas pero finalmente¡¡ lo logramos!!.
Todas las semanas vamos realizando progresivamente actividades que le permitan a los chicos familiarizarse con esta herramienta y los resultados son cada vez mejores.
Nos proponemos que cada alumno tenga un espacio de publicación escolar, que pueda compartir con sus pares y docentes a través de las redes con responsabilidad y autonomía, y que finalmente pueda convertirse en un ciudadano digital atento y respetuoso.

¡Nos vemos en Edmodo!
