We have just finished the unit, My City, and we are about to start a long weekend. In other words, we have a great opportunity to explore all the wonderful places that our city has to offer. Perhaps we could visit the Retiro, the Plaza Mayor, or maybe the shops in our neighborhood such as the butcher's, the baker's or the chemist's, so as the kids can see first-hand the things that we have been learning about.

Well done Lucía! Congratulations! 

Exam time again!! 

  

Let's revise a bit of vocabulary. Don't forget to use the online book and  the CD, in the case of English. 

 

 

I am glad with all  the photos you are sending me. Thank you very much! Our project is going to be awesome! The idea, for those who haven't contributed yet, is to take a shot on our neighbourhood. This one  is fantastic to highlight our  Sport Center "Vicente del Bosque" (Coach Spanish Selection).

Our neighbourhood has many places and street objects ( post box, telephone box, street lamps, bus stop, zebra crossing...) and these items  seems to be forgotten when taking a photo and they  are part of the vocabulary on  our unit at class!!!

The minutes of our meeting will be available tomorrow, on Parent's site (documents).

There are lots of places and things to do in our neighbourhood. We are working on this topic as part of our curriculum and as part of our Erasmus project Knowing me! with Paris, Rome, London and Tallin.

We are going to make a big map on a wall.Your contribution  will be very important. We need to complete the map with more information and pictures where you are in !

El tema del barrio en Ciencias Sociales se vincula este año con el proyecto Erasmus Knowing me! en el que participamos junto con Paris, Londres, Roma y Tallin. En los próximos días los niños de primero completarán el plano del barrio. Nos gustaría tener fotos de los distintos lugares en los que también estuvieran nuestros alumnos "María en la farmacia"...para hacerlo más personal y vivencial. Las fotos se pueden enviar mediante el correo de este blog.

Just a video to review the family vocabulary and a book for our neighbourhood topic.

  My neighbourhood
 

 

We are very busy learning about our neighbourhood. Today, both groups have been working excellent. Christmas break and the new weather conditions  are doing wonders. 

 ¡Enhorabuena Silvia! Un trabajo excelente que nos servirá para conocer mejor nuestro barrio. 

Ahora sabemos, por ejemplo, que hay cuatro bancos y la pregunta es saber donde se encuentran...

Where are they?

Hi kids! The weather is wonderful and I just want to tell you that our neighbourhood is the topic for these days.I recommend a walk to see what we have.

 He pretendido hacer una pequeña historieta para animar nuestra tarea de fin de semana. ¿Quienes son esos personajes? Tal vez ...
