Thanksgiving 2018

In November, we celebrated Thanksgiving at our school. This is a holiday that is celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday of every November.

We learned about the story of the first Thanksgiving, the traditions of the holiday, and the foods that people eat on this special day. We also gave thanks for the good things in our lives, a very important part of this day.

6th grade performed a play to explain to our school how Thanksgiving is celebrated. We all learned a lot and we had a great time!

En novembro, celebramos o ¨Thanksgiving¨ no noso colexio. Trátase dun festivo que se celebra nos Estados Unidos o cuarto xoves de cada novembro.

Aprendemos moito sobre a historia do primeiro ¨Thanksgiving,¨ as súas tradicións, a comida que se come nese día tan especial. Tamén, e demos as grazas polas cousas boas nas nosas vidas, unha parte moi importante do festivo.

Os alumnos de sexto representaron unha obra de teatro para explicar ao colexio como se celebra o ¨Thanksgiving.¨ Aprendemos moito e pasámolo moi ben!

Preparing French Toast with 6th Grade

On Wednesday, the students in 6th grade prepared a typical American recipe for ¨french toast.¨ It is similar to the ¨torrijas¨ recipe from Spain. We practiced ingredients, numbers, measurements, and cooking verbs in English!

The final result was delicious! All of the students contributed to make the recipe, and we enjoyed the french toast with maple syrup, blueberries, and blackberries. 

We had a great time celebrating the end of the course!

Now, you can take a look at some pictures from our activity and the recipe for french toast if you want to try to make it at home!

O mércores, os alumnos de sexto prepararon unha receta típica dos Estados Unidos que se chama ¨french toast.¨ É moi similar ás nosas ¨torrijas.¨ Practicamos os nomes dos ingredientes, os números, as medidas, e os verbos que usamos para cociñar en inglés!

O resultado final foi delicioso! Tódolos nenos e nenas contribuiron para preparar a receta, e gustounos moito o ¨french toast¨ con xarope de arce, arandos, e amoras. 

Divertímonos moito celebrando o fin de curso!

Agora, deixámovos unhas fotos da nosa actividade e tamén a receta para que poidades preparala en casa se vos interesa!

Halloween 2018

This school year, for Halloween, we did a lot of activities! We did "trick or treat" with candy from the United States, we did a project in art class, and the students in 5th and 6th grade presented a Halloween story to pre-primary, 1st, and 2nd grade. We had a great time!

Este curso, para celebrar o "Halloween," fixemos moitas actividades! Participamos na tradición do "trick or treat" con caramelos dos Estados Unidos, fixemos un proxecto na aula de plástica, e os alumnos de 5o e 6o presentaron un conto de Halloween aos nenos e nenas de infantil, 1o, e 2o. Pasámolo moi ben!
