Hope you enjoy this week as much as you can! See you all in April!

Benvolguts pares i mares:

El proper 6 d’abril iniciarem la cinquena edició de l’ “English Week” a l’escola. Hi participarà Ed. Infantil i Ed. Primària. Aquest any estudiarem i treballarem l’estat d’Indiana, la seva capital Indianapolis i un artista nascut en aquest estat Michael Jackson. Treballarem la geografia, la moneda, llocs per visitar, les tradicions i la cultura americana, la música, el menjar típic… També farem una exposició de material: fotografies, postals i diferents objectes dels Estats Units. Us agrairíem molt la vostra col•laboració. Podeu portar qualsevol tipus de material (marcat amb el nom del vostre/ a fill/a i el curs) relacionat amb els EEUU. Podeu portar algun conte en anglès, algun DVD o CD de cançons, postals, bitllets o monedes, fotografies, informació… Si algun pare o mare vol venir a explicar un conte o alguna experiència viscuda als Estats Units us podeu posar en contacte amb el tutor/a. Gràcies per la vostra col•laboració un any més.

The English Teachers.

Yes, it is true. This year’s English Week is about him, Michael Jackson. The songs are already given. 1st and 2nd grade sing Jacksons’ Five songs. 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th grade sing all time songs.

Last Thursday some cookies came to visit. We decorated them and learnt the Christmas poem. Don’t forget to hang them up on your Xmas tree. Merry Christmas!

This week we’ve been working on colours. We had such a great time mixing them up while singing a rhyme: Blue and yellow, blue and yellow blue and yellow make green” as well as “red and yellow, red and yellow, red and yellow make orange”.

Look! Our friends made a Halloween video for us. Enjoy it!

Chicka, Chicka, BOOM, BOOM! Has your child been shouting these words throughout your home this week? Don’t worry… the kids aren’t learning a secret language. This week they worked very hard to learn the alphabet with this fun book, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. Many of you may remember the “Alphabet” song from your childhood! Sing it at home with your kid and do some spelling . There’s also an alphabet song in the songs CD. Sit back and enjoy watching Chicka Chicka Boom Boom with your child!
