THE BOOK NOOK 8

 

"The Book Nook" is here again!  We are in the third season and this is the eighth episode of this fascinating radio programme, made for and by students in year 6.

 After an entire term of recordings, research, interviews, opinions, meetings and hard work, we have released the second show of this school year 2023-2024. And the results are amazing! Thank you so much to all the collaborators for your effort. 

This season will be entirely dedicated to the project we are developing in our book clubs. Under the title"Globetrotters", we will travel the world with our readings to learn the costumes and traditions of some English speaking countries. In this episode you will learn more about our sister land: Ireland.

In the presentation below you can listen to the entire programme or go directly to a specific section:

1. Intro: summary

2. "Speak out": a  section to give your opinion about a simple question: What are the benefits of travelling?

3. "Our book Clubs": with members of Bookworms and BookLand.

4. "Meet the place": in this ocassion we will travel to Ireland or Eire.

5. "Enchanted landscapes": a section related to the PDI, this time we will see the similarities between Irish and Galician forests.

6. "Our natives count": with a message by the Irish consul in Galicia, Mr Declan Mathews.

Irish forestry

Today has been a special day at school: we have celebrated St. Patrick´s Day with Declan Mathews, an Irish teacher, member of honour of our school community. So we all have been Irish for a day, and wore green, a lucky colour. We have learned many facts about Ireland thanks to Declan: he took us for a walk in the forest and we could notice that the Irish forestry is very similar to ours.  Gorses, ferns and shamrocks, along with oak trees, chestnut trees and birch trees decorate their forests and give them the characteristic color green.  At the end, we had to answer 10 questions of a quiz and, as we did it so well, we got the leprechaun´s pot of gold!!! Hurray!!!

 
Thank you so much, Declan, for your patience, kindness and wisdom!

PEACE DAY

Last Tuesday, the 30th of January, we celebrated the International School Day of Peace and Non-Violence. But do you know what peace is?  What does peace mean to you? Well, peace is about diversity, tolerance, friendship, freedom, inclusion, sharing, support, help, understanding ... Based on them, all the students in year 5 and 6 created our FLOWERS FOR PEACE including some of these powerful words 

We also had the chance to meet Marta, a corageous Ukrainian mother who came to Spain a year ago with her 4 kids, students in our school. She was a Spanish and English teacher in Ukraine, and she shared her knowlegde with us. She talked about the beauty of her country and her experience as a refugee in Coruña. She traced her route to come to Spain in a map, mentioning all the places they lived in before ending in our town. She really appreciates all the support and help she is receiving and she hopes to go back to her country soon.
Thank you for your courage and generosity, Marta!
All the best!!!
 
 

PEACE DAY - 30th January 2024 

Bilingual sections: Arts & Crafts

As you know, this school year we are learning Arts & Crafts as a bilingual section. That means that we use English as well as Galician to communicate among us during the lessons. We are developing a project around the seasons, the perfect excuse to observe the changes in nature from an emotional and artistic perspective. Under the title "4 in a year" we are approaching to different artistic languages, styles, techniques, formats and artists. During this first term, we have worked around the autumn or fall, learning about the pointillism with Georges Seurat and Yayoi Kusama. We have also met Giuseppe Arcimboldo and his famous portraits of fruits. Finally, we have counted on the presence of Xulio Gallego, a teacher and local artist who taught us how to use the perspective and the vanishing points in our drawings. Thank you, Xulio, for all your knowledge, patience and commitment. We hope to see you again in the winter!

CHRISTMAS JUMPER DAY

 

One more year, the English department celebrated the CHRISTMAS JUMPER DAY,  an annual charity event hold by the NGO "Save the children" in order to raise funds for the poor. It was first launched in 2012 and it has become extremely popular all over the world. This year it took place on the 18th of December, which was a magical day: all the pupils in year 5 and 6 wore funny festive jumpers to school instead of normal clothes in order to "MAKE THE WORLD BETTER WITH A SWEATER". We also played Secret santa, the game of the month. Would you like to see our faces opening the presents? Take a look...

It was a wonderful day, full of excitement, laughter, fun, unique sweaters and games.

ENCHANTED FORESTS


This year we will discover some enchanted places, the forests, as a way to participate in the school project of this year 2023-2024. 
Will you join us?

To do so, you need a forest and a walking stick for the walk. And time, you need time to observe. You also need a pair of special glasses. Don´t worry! You already have the glasses, since you were born. With them, you will discover the surprises of the forest. Watch with your 5 senses:

     - See all colours

     - Listen to all creatures

     - Smell all the aromas

     - Touch all surfaces

     -  and try new flavours,  which are different according to the season of the year

Come on! What are you waiting for? Close your eyes and listen to what we have recorded for you.  Have a nice experience!
