On Tuesday 12th of March, Year 3 students went to the theatre to see the play of Snow White. As we all expected everybody enjoyed this activity very much. We had been preparing for it and after watching it we have been doing some work about it. In the video you can see the moments when some of our students went on stage to participate in the play.
The days before Carnival all the boys and girls (and most of the teachers) had great fun coming to school following the "orders" told by the King. The day people had to come with a special hair dressing we recorded this song we all like very much singing. You will see how "boring" are our English lessons!!!!
Hello again...and Happy New Year!! Last week 4th year students went to els Lluïsos d'Horta to see the play of Tarzan. This year the group of children have enjoyed the play very much because they like theatre a lot. As you will see in the video they all wanted to participate and go on stage, but it was not possible as there were many pupils from other schools and the actors couldn't choose everybody.
Pau had to go for a competition and Victoria was called to act as a lion and give Tarzan some advice in his effort to attract Jane...
At the end of the play the actors interacted with the audience and the children could practise their English asking questions to them...
The Sound Of Music has always been one of those family movies one can enjoy watching to have a nice and relaxing time both for the music and for the story in itself (based on the true story of the Trapp Family). This youtube shows the part of the film when they sing the famous song Do, Re, Mi. Enjoy watching and singing. In the tab "Study&Practise" at the top of this blog you will find karaoke versions to learn the lyrics and practise English singing this song.
And talking about this I would like you to watch this flashmob done in Belgium. I think it's great! Enjoy!
Take a look at the video Jaume has recorded at home!! He is in the Giraffes group (2nd year) and likes English very much. Here you can see him saying the Halloween chant we have been practising in class. Thank you Jaume for this contribution to the blog.
How was your summer? We are sure you all had wonderful holidays full of interesting and great activities. From this blog we want to wish you the best for this new school year, no matter the scissors...!!! Enjoy your learning!!
Once a week the lesson of English is done in small groups and that's a good moment for us to do drama. In this video you can watch what the we did one of those days. As you can see we like acting out and having a good time practising what we study!
We just want to show you what we do, even if it is something not very well prepared because we think you like to know how we work in the English class.
We never told you that at the beginning of March Year 3 classes went to see the play of Snow White at Lluïsos d’Horta. We all spent a great time there because the performance was very good and there were many moments of fun!!
We were lucky because some of us had the oportunity to go on stage and experience what is like acting or playing for a big audience.
Pol had to help a dwarf to tidy up the cottage. Marta and Pau had to sort out all the dirty things and put them either into the washing machine or into the fridge because there was such a mess in that house!
Júlia was asked to be the mirror but queen Esmeralda did not like at all hearing that the nicest girl was Snow White. Then Júlia had to escape running away as fast as she could, otherwise she would have been caught by the queen! Near the end our friend Rubén became the handsome prince of the story and that
was amazing because he wanted to leave before finishing and the actors had to make him stay! He did it so well that we couldn't stop laughing.
You can see in the pictures that what we tell you is true!
In order to understand well the play and the songs we had been working on it in class. In the first oral lesson we had once the play had been seen, the students acted out their favourite moment and most of them chose the classic "Mirror, mirror on the wall... " We like showing you the results but do, please, take into account that students were improvising! You will see that they all had a great time in class!
After the Easter Holidays more interesting activities were about to come at "Mc Pumpkin Torrent School"...
Year 5 classes went to the theatre!
OnFriday 13th, Year5 students went to see the play Robin Hood at Lluïsos d'Horta.
The whole play was performed by an actress and an actor acting as different characters. They were very good. We specially enjoyed the moments when some of our classmates were called to go up on stage and act in front of all of us.
Valeria had to do a competition...
...and Ariadna had to dance!
Elena was all of a sudden Lady Marion! She was delighted to be near Robin!
Below you can see an extract of the play with which you can guess the fun we all had that morning.
