MARCH 2019

We start march playing chess! Our partner Jesús organized a workshop where all the pupils at school can learn about movements and tricks about this amazing and funny game. We tried with different figures like the horse, the queen, the rook or the bishop.

All the school celebrates "International Women's Day" with a radio programm. 3rd course has invited some granmothers and interviewed them about the role of women in the local history. Pupils first could talk with grandmas at the classroom and then walked to the radio station. Grandmothers enjoyed a very special day with children and we could learn a lot with them.

In Science 3rd course are learning about LIVING THINGS. Our project is very important. We are going to investigate about the sixth kingdoms and endangered animals.

Our first activity is to plant several plants into different pots. We all collaborate and now...must wait for the plants to grow.

We also went out for an excursion around our locality. An important fact was discovered near our school. Romans left different constructions in Mengibar such as "Jano's Door" (La Puerta de Jano) or a roman road that conects with Cordoba. It has been an amazing adventure because an animal expert talked us about indigenous birds, reptiles, mammals or plants.

This month has been special because we could play with a programmation kit on loan. We played and learned while had fun.

And finally we went to the...swimmimgpool!! It was such a great day! We played ans swimmed and learned to junp head to the water using a giant ball. We also danced and boxed. We had a lot of fun!  Thanks to the teacher Sandra for this amazing idea we hope could reapeat next course. 

FEBRUARY 2019...I LOVE YOU!!

1st grade has been learning in february about food and healthy habits. Their food pyramids are lovely and now they know about what to eat to be strong and healthy!

In 3rd grade we have been learning about energy. We are now concious about the importance of saving it for a better future. All of we must collaborate in order to get a clean world. This is the result: a selection of comics which try to concern the rest of pupils about how to save energy.

St. Valentine is here, so we we prepared a craft to show our pupils we love each others.  

Also, we use for the first time our "Regards Door". Everyday at the end of school each pupils chooses how he/she says goodbye to the teacher. It's very funny and we have a special moment at the end of the day. 

 The 28th of february we cellebrate "Andalusia's Day". It's a very special day for us because is the place where we live. We investigated about the different provinces and located them in a map.

We learned several typical dances and songs that were sung by our parents and granparents when they were children.  

We all meet in the playground and eat bread with our unique and delicious olive oil and a bit of chocolate. Then we listen to our hymns and dance and sing. It's a day to cellebrate we are proud to live in Andalucia. 

JANUARY 2019, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Happy New Year!! Another year starts, full of new oportunities and chances to learn lots of amazing things! Let's start!!

In 3º course we're learning about machines and energy. We are making simple machines and learning how they works and how can we use it to make our work easier. 

First of all we built a pulley and then transformed it into a car!! Do you like it? We had lots of fun. 

We also had a very special guest. Postmen went to our school to collect our letters of gratitude for the Three Wise Men where we thank for our presents.

We continue studying machines and forces. Now it's turn to build an amazing mechanism with mobile bees and flowers using levers. We had a lot of fun while we learn a lot of interesting things. 

We celebrated Children Rights' Day building a wall full of beautiful words than can be used to avoid conflicts and get more and more friends. Before fighting, stop and think, you can use one of these words and become friends instead enemies.

We ellaborated a human chain where all the pupils in our class (and the teacher too) are holding hands in order to represent that we are friends, we are a team, we help each other and everyone who need our help, we respect people.

At school we cellebrated the Children Rights' Day with a peaceful march to the Town Hall square, where we listened to guitar players, flamenco singers, dancers, short theaters... we finished the cellebration at school singing and dancing a beautiful song "Feliz", the Grinch soundtrack.
