Peppa Pig

Hello children! HOw is going your weekend off? I have found a nice video about Peppa pig for reviewing the numbers and some playground activities. Have fun.



Moreover, I have found one link for you to learn how to draw Peppa and colouring her. If you can, make one try and bring it to me on Tuesday.

This is the HOWJSAY link where you can type words to listen how you should say them.

Body

The new Science topic is "the body", and for that purpose, here you have different interesting links for you to work on it. I hope they will be helpful.

First a video about your skeleton and another one about your muscles.

The weather video

As we need to revise and increase our weather vocabulary, there you have a nice video and some flashcards. Have a look, please!

senses crossword

Here you are a nice crossword for practising some vocabulary from the lesson. Have fun!

As Hugo has suggested, I post the link for you to practice with the colours game. I told you to wait until we find a nice version completely in English, but, while I find it, you can continue using this one because our intention is that you practice using the sight and the hearing and you train your memory skills! Enjoy!

The senses


I found a nice mind map for reviewing the senses.
But look at this video which I find absolutly didactic!

And now learn a song.

Have fun!
For practising reading and phonics, the most interesting web page is starfall.
I highly recommend that you let children do it.

Jolly Songs

If you want to sing the songs, use this links. Please, do sing them once and again.



The calendar song

Surfing into the youtube thing, I found really nice archaeologic remains. This is one of them. Learn and sing it as it will be really useful for Year 1.
Vagando por el ancho mar de youtube, he encontrado maravillosos restos arqueológicos (fósiles). Este es uno de ellos. Aprendedla y cantadla porque os será muy útil.

Routines songs

I also consider important that you learn the days of the week song. Please, listen to it once and again. It's really sticky.
Creo que es importante también que aprendáis esta canción de los días de la semana. Por favor, escuchadla una y otra vez; es muy pegadiza.




And this is a second option.


If you have to work on them, use this activity, which is really nice.

Finally, you can download this pdf and print the labels for your bedroom walls. Remember that some days are tricky words.

There you go! My very first contribution will be this nice story maker which the children have already enjoyed and used in class.

Welcome!

Hello children and parents!
As you were continually asking me for extra resources, something which already was in my mind, I have decided to finally create this blog specially for you. I hope you will enjoy it.
Feel free to submit any suggestion or comment.
Kisses.
¡HOla chicos y papis!
Como muchos me habéis estado pidiendo un apoyo extra para ampliar y complementar las clases, algo sobre lo que ya había yo estado pensando, me decido a crear un blog de aula para vuestro uso y disfrute. Espero que os sirva.
Sentiros libres de postear cualquier anotación, sugerencia o comentario. Eso sí, por favor, intentad escribir en inglés, si no os importa, aunque sea un inglés de indios, animad a los niños a hacerlo con vosotros para que también ellos practiquen el idioma por este cauce, y de los errores aprenderemos también.
Besos.
