FRIDGE OR REFRIGERATOR?

Loli Herrero — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 22:26:02 +0000

“Fridge” and “refrigerator” are synonyms. “FRIDGE” is more popular in the British English language, while “REFRIGERATOR” is more commonly used by the Americans. But both have the same meaning: “a machine which keeps food cold and so prevents it from going bad”. The title of this article is only an excuse to present a sketch performed by students from fourth grade. In the scene they are practicing interrogative questions using “is there…?”. You can also go to the article Alvaro´s fridge in this blog to see more about the same topic.

I SEE TREES OF GREEN,
RED ROSES TOO
I SEE THEM BLOOM
FOR ME AND YOU

AND I THINK TO MYSELF
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD.

I SEE SKIES OF BLUE
AND CLOUDS OF WHITE
THE BRIGHT BLESSED DAY,
THE DARK SACRED NIGHT

AND I THINK TO MYSELF
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD.
THE COLORS OF THE RAINBOW
SO PRETTY IN THE SKY
ARE ALSO ON THE FACES
OF PEOPLE GOING BY
I SEE FRIENDS SHAKING HANDS
SAYING “HOW DO YOU DO”
THEY´RE REALLY SAYING
“I LOVE YOU”

I HEAR BABIES CRYING,
I WATCH THEM GROW
THEY´LL LEARN MUCH MORE
THAN I´LL EVER KNOW

AND I THINK TO MYSELF
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD
YES I THINK TO MYSELF
WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD.

The programme ESCUELA 2.0 gives our students the chance to work in class with personal laptops to increase their abilities using ICT resources to learn. We show some examples made by a couple of students : Noemí González and Jorge Méndez. The following works were made by themselves without any help. Congratulations to both of them!

AN APPLE A DAY KEEPS THE DOCTOR AWAY

Loli Herrero — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 00:55:21 +0000

The title of this article is a well known English proverb. However, we are going to write not only about “apples” but also about “the fruit” in general. We have been learning “fruit names” in third grade this week because they are healthy and tasty. We show here some of our children´s drawings about fruit. They were all made by students in the group 3rd B.

LEARNING SOME VERBS

Loli Herrero — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 23:18:50 +0000

Is the “verb” the most important part of a sentence?. Little children don´t know the answer to this question but their teacher realizes about the importance of learning “actions” to understand and make phrases. In simple sentences like ” I can…” or “I can´t…” is necessary to use one action at least. This is what we are learning in third grade at the moment. With the following film everybody at school can revise some verbs. Thank you very much to the students in third grade who put their voices to make the film. Great work!!!
