We
did different activities the last term, and now we are explaining them.
EUROPEAN
DAY OF LANGUAGES (26th September)
We celebrated the European Day of Languages on 26th of
September 2014. Around 23 languages are spoken in Europe. ENGLISH is the language
most spokeng in the world.
Each student wrote in a card the same word, that seemed
to interest us for some reason, in several languages. At the end of the class,
we glued these card in a large cardboard, we showed it in the corridor of the
school and we hung it in our classroom. We had a funny class and interesting
way of learning English.
People have to encourage to learn languages, because we
learnt that has a lot of benefits.
It was a wonderful day and we learnt many things.

HALLOWEEN
(31th October)
Halloween is celebrated at night on 31th October. It is a mysterious night where children wear funny or scary costumes on this special
holiday. Children knock on doors and say
“Trick or treat!” and people give them sweets.
In this day we had
in the computer room and there we did different activities:
-
We
surfed by Internet, we searched the Halloween history and we answered some
questions.
-
After
that, we read a photocopy with Halloween vocabulary.
-
We
completed the gaps of the song “This is Halloween” , the song of The Nightmare
Before Christmas. And we had to sing this song.

THANKSGIVING
DAY
It is a traditional celebration of the United States and
Canada. In the USA, it is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November
although originally it was done last Thursday. Whereas in Canada, it is
celebrated on the second Monday of October. In this festival each family gather
round the table and share the meal. Althought it was a religious celebration in
origin, nowadays it is a secular holiday.
In classroom we looked things on the Internet and
discovered information about this day.
We consider that this day is a good idea, and we think
that in Spain we should also celebrate a
great day for spending time with our family and our friends. Why not?
BLACK
FRIDAY/ CIBER MONDAY
Black Friday is the Friday following Thanksgiving Day in the
United States, traditionally the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.
Many websites have created Black Friday Ads, and have
sent a lot of emails. There are many Spanish shops that have celebrated Black
Friday as well.
We looked information on Internet and discovered
several ideas about this day.
Moreover the equivalent to Black Friday online is
called “Cyber Monday” and starts the Monday after Thanksgiving. In this day,
purchases by Internet are cheaper, because there are a lot of offers and sales.

EXCHANGE
A CHRISTMAS CARDS
Christmas is a nice time of
the year where people gather round a table with their families. Each schools
prepare different kind of activities for their students. In our school we did a
Christmas cards. We drew them, and we wrote a sentence in English and on 18th
December we exchange a christmas cards with other class. We sang a Christmas
Carols as well. It was so funny to stay for one hour with a younger people and
show our nativity scene.

ENGLISH
EVERYWHERE
In Spain we have a lot of
English words. We had to choose a English word that we usually use in Spanish.
Each day in class a student had to explain the chosen word and talked about the
meaning, translation, pronuntiation and the reason we chose it.
