Y3 - Ask and answer questions

Today we practised asking and answering questions. Our detectives had to ask questions and find the hidden items in the classroom (a potato, a tomato, a chocolate, a pig and a horse- they all have to do  something with Columbus:-). These were the questions:

We had fun making a comic book page with the ComicBook ipad app.

We went nuts about numbers, we had to say in Spanish what number our partner made us.

Here are the entries for the ñ design contest, they are all brilliant! It will be hard to choose the winner!

 

Y5 - Prepositions,postcards and numbers

 

Today we practised our travel sentences. We played "Pass the Parcel", and whenever the DJ stopped the music, we had to make sentences with two cards: a day one and a flag one.

 

El jueves voy a Ecuador.

El sábado voy a Argentina.

El domingo voy a Paraguay.

El viernes voy a México.

 

We sang our song "Este puente..."

 



We read a postcard in Spanish, next week we will write one!

 

We went nuts about numbers: we had to write numbers with hazelnuts and challenge our partners to say them in Spanish. Excellent work!

 



We talked about Columbus Day, and watched a video about the history of the Spanish language.

Next week we will write postcards, hope you will enjoy looking through the leaflets, postcards and travel magazines I by the Spanish display!

Y6 - role plays and big numbers

Today we had a very busy lesson. First we  sang the numbers up to 100 with our silly song.

Then we played "Splat" with real euros and a peso note from Chile, while practising the question ¿Cuánto cuesta?.

We guessed the prices of some gift shop items and will challenge our friends in Grangetown Primary School to do the same!

We presented our shopping role plays and recorded them. We even had a clapper board, like in the real movies!

 

We were very sad to hear that one of our classmate's dog is too poorly and will be put to sleep today. Hope our  ¡Ánimo! messages will cheer him up a little bit! :-)

 

 

We finished with the alphabet song, and the best singer was.... everybody in Year 6!

 

And here is the video I promised, we watched it last year!

 

 

Y3: Vivo en Burscough/ Columbus Day

Today we have learned to say where we live.
Vivo en Burscough.
Vivo en Southport.
Vivo en Rufford.

Now we can say 4 sentences about ourselves:
Me llamo George.
Tengo 7 años.
Soy inglés.
Vivo en Burscough.

We have written this sentence down in our Spanish books and we remembered that v is pronounced as b in Spanish, like in verde or nueve.

Today and next week we are celebrating Columbus Day. This famous explorer discovered America. His trips were paid by the Spanish King and Queen, and he had to spread Spanish and the Catholic religion to new territories.

They speak Spanish in 21 countries and we started to decorate a long bunting with the flags of these countries. We have almost finished them, next week we will hang them up.

 

We looked at the map of his first trip, if you want to see it again, click here.

We watched a short video and had to answer 1 question: Where does Spanish come from? The answer is: LATIN!

Don't forget we have two competitions:
1,Decorate the letter ñ , all the entries need to be in next week. The prize is a Spanish book!
2, Find "Hello" in Portuguese in the Languages of the World book, it is in the corridor!

And remember to donate your pre-loved books to our Spanish partner school's library, they will be happy to have Postman Pat, Thomas the Tank Engine or any old books you don't need! Gracias!
