In the event of an emergency...

To round up our unit about Disaster in 5°EPO, we have dealt with some collaborative task today.

Each team had to be ready to keep making some comic strips about that topic,but making sure they did not delete what their classmates had already written.

Technology.4°EPO

Since we are involved in a 21st century approach to technology, isn't it crucial to go back in time to when it all started?
Kids in 4° will be focused on several devices to the extent to carry out four separate tasks about their own 'rendition', let's say, of them.
They will be arranged in groups,  with a name,a badge and some allocated space.
They are going to write down a list of terms and vocabulary concerning their invention.
They are going to make a sample of it, together with and ad and,last but not least, if we do not run out of time, they will give it as a present to a local shop that sells items like theirs.
They are going to love it.
That's for sure!

A mis niños fans de Tom Chaplin

Os adjunto el enlace al concierto homenaje a Queen de diciembre en el que Tom Chaplin (cantante de Keane y al que mis niños de 6° han aprendido a adorar desde su interpretación en Navidad de Under A Million Lights) cantó muchas canciones de la banda, con el beneplácito y admiración de Brian May.
A partir del minuto 4:45, dadle voz y disfrutad del talento de Queen en la persona de Tom Chaplin.
Mi favorita...minuto 27:30.
No es fácil cantar por Mercury pero él sabe darle un toque único.
Irene,Jorge F.,Héctor, Hugo...
Y, en el minuto 1:32:20 de concierto...la canción con la que crecimos muchos y, ahora, vuestros hijos.
It's rewarding when you realise music can still be used as that token in class to keep our little kids stamina levels up!
It will always be a kind of magic when a teacher worldwide gets into a class with the target to deal with 'will' and then kids start singing "We will we will rock you!' Pure class!

Resumen UDI basada en la paz

A lo largo de varias semanas hemos trabajado la idea de paz entendida como intrínseca en cualquier ámbito de la vida y, a través del idioma inglés.
-En 5°, hemos profundizado con lecturas (Segunda Guerra Mundial y la vida de Ana Frank), asi como con clases culturales sobre cuestiones de la actualidad geopolítica (el Brexit y la cuestión de la frontera norirlandesa).
-En el proyecto semanal,hemos realizado posters sobre cómo Granada puede ser una ciudad más pacífica y acogedora hacia sus habitantes y turistas.
-En 6° terminaron los posters sobre las canciones en Inglés que transmiten  sensación de tranquilidad a sus familias.
Algunos niños han escrito un relato sobre la paz de manera voluntaria y espontánea en Storybird (podeis ver uno de ellos en la columna de la derecha).
-En 3° nos hemos centrado en crear ambiente de paz hacia cada niño del aula.Hemos enfatizado la importancia de parar y detener nuestra agitación interior cuando le toca participar a otro compañero (relacionado con 'must' y su matiz lingüístico de obligación ética).
En definitiva, pretendemos que el día de la paz trascienda los límites de sus símbolos y se perciba como algo que cuidar a cada minuto de la vida personal.
