STORYTELLING IN ENGLISH AT THE FERIA DEL LIBRO

Dear families,
In April we celebrated the Book day and I would like to encourage your children to start reading in English.
There is a great opportunity to enjoy and learn this weekend at the 52 Feria del Libro in Valencia with a storytelling in English for free. 
WHEN? Sunday 30th April at 11:30h.
WHERE? On the main stage at Jardines de Viveros, 52 Feria del Libro.


John Harrop, an amazing teacher from Liverpool, will read a version of the GingerBread Man.

You can be there a little bit earlier to make and colour a GingerBread Man made from cardboard to use it during the story.


Right after, I recommend you to visit the stand 09-10 ENGLISH WOOKS. It is a bookshop where you can find many interesting stories to read with the little ones and encourage them to read for pleasure.


See you on Sunday, butterflies!!!

IGLOO

Last month we went to the THEATRE to enjoy a funny play.
 It was…
IGLOO by Forum Theatre & Education.

We met Yuki, an eskimo that lives in the North Pole, with his mummy Narumi and his friends Nala and Pongo.



We had so much fun at the theatre singing and dancing in the North Pole.

Here you are some pictures of the play and, specially, of the actors and actresses we saw acting. They were brilliant.
Do you recognise them?








It was a great great day!!! 

Bye bye butterflies!

In the jungle

In Year 1 we learnt how to describe wild animals. Here are some interesting resources to practice and extend the related content of the unit.

SONG Walking in the jungle from Super Simple Songs

Let's revise some actions and animals, dancing and singing that song!

STORY Giraffes can't dance by Giles Andreae

Do you remember Gerald, the giraffe?

There is a great message in that story about respecting differences and finding one's own rhythm.

As Gerald learnt, we can do anything if we put our minds and efforts to do it!


GAMES 

Click and find many interactive games to learn about animals.


Hope you enjoy it! Bye bye butterflies!
