Jingle bells

Los niños y niñas de la clase de segundo nos convertiremos en raperos para felicitar la Navidad a todos nuestros amigos del cole.

Esta es la letra del estribillo del villancico:

Jingle bells, jingle bells

jingle all the way

oh! what fun it s to ride

in an one horse open sleigh!

Jingle bells, jingle bells

jingle all the way

oh! what fun it s to ride

in an one horse open sleigh!

All i want for Christmas is you.

Ya queda menos para las vacaciones de Navidad, y para despedir el trimestre bailaremos este preciosa villancico.

Hemos empezado a ensayar el baile y nos sale rebién. Podemos cantar la canción con este Karaoke.

What do plants need to live? The needs of a plant.

Plants are LIVING THINGS. They are born, they grow, they reproduce and they die. Plants need water. sunlight, mineral and air.

Listen to this song if you want to remember this lesson ;)

Parts of a plant.

Hi second graders!!

We've been studying the different parts of a plant. Look at the picture:

Each part has its function. Let's see:

1. ROOTS: They are under the ground and absorb water and mineral from the soil.

2. STEM: It has branches and the branches have leaves. The stem carries water and mineral from the roots to the leaves.

3. LEAVES: The leaves make food for the plant.

4. FLOWERS: They are the reproductive part of the plant. Seeds form inside the flower. Fruits form inside the seed.

BROWN BEAR, BROWN BEAR.

Para seguir repasando los colores hemos leido esta bonita historia:

Como ya nos sabemos todos los colores, los niños de Infantil me han ayudado a leerla. Después hemos escuchado esta canción:

Five senses boxes

Durante estas últimas semanas y aprovechando que estábamos aprendiendo distintos aspectos sobre los cinco sentidos,  hemos llenado cinco cajas (cada una para un sentido diferente) con objetos muy diferentes que nos ayudaban a poner a prueba nuestros conocimientos :)

Vamos a ver todas de una en una.

TOUCHING BOX:

 We touch things with our hands.The touching box is full of teddies, stones, coins, sponges etc...

SMELL BOX:

                                                              

We use our nose to smell things. In our box you will find perfume, candels, cinnamon, ginger etc..

TASTE BOX:

Lemons, oranges, sweets, popcorn...they all have different flavours: sour, sweet, savoury....

We tasted popcorn: They were sooo savoury.

                                                                                                     We tasted lemmon: it was soooo sour.

 We tasted sweets and candies. They were so sweet and yummy.

SIGHT BOX:

We use our eyes to see: we can see colours but we can't see sounds.

HEARING BOX:

We hear with our ears sounds that can be quiet or loud. In our hearing box there are many instruments.

My five senses games and song.

My five senses

Llevamos las dos últimas  semanas aprendiendo e investigando sobre los cinco sentidos.

Vamos a verlos uno por uno:

SMELL:

We use our nose to smell things. Things can smell good or bad.

Roses smell GOOD.

Rubbish smell BAD.

TASTE:

We use the mouth and tongue to taste different flavours. These flavours are: sweet, sour and savoury.

Lemmons taste SOUR.

Candies taste SWEET.

Popcorn taste SAVOURY.

HEARING:

We use our little ears to hear sounds. Sounds can be loud or quiet.

Drums sound LOUD.

A piano sounds QUIET.

SIGHT:

We use our eyes to see the world around us. We can see colours or read books.

The rainbow has different colours.

TOUCH:

We touch things with our hands and even with our skin. Things can be hard, soft, rough and smooth.

A coin is HARD.

A teddy bear is SOFT.

A cat hair is SMOOTH.

A scourer is ROUGH.

Harvest Festival

What does Harvest Festival mean? Pues bien, esto es lo que han aprendido los niños y niñas de segundo: ¿ Qué es Harvest Festival?

Vamos a ver un poco más sobre ello:

- What is a Harvest Festival?

Harvest Festival is a celebration of the food grown on the land.

Harvest Festival in The USA is in November. People have a big dinner.

Harvest Festival in Ireland is in August. Farmers bring their harvest to trade or sell. They mostly sell potatoes.

Harvest Festival in Canada is in October. They celebrate this party with a vegetable contest.

Harvest Festival in Britain is in September. Children bring food baskets to school for people from the community.

En clase hemos escuchado esta canción:

Os dejo la letra de la canción para que la cantéis....

Welcome, everybody

Welcome, time to party

Welcome, everybody

Welcome, to the autumn harvest

Seasons come seasons go

Yeah we like it

Autumn winds start to blow

Yeah we like it

When them leaves start to fall,

Change in colours and all

See them dance through the breeze

Catch them if you please…

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…

Autumn skies they will glow

Yeah we like it

So many colours on show

Yeah we like it

As we see the squirrels run,

Hiding acorns having fun

Children coming out to play…

With conkers every day

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…

Bring a marrow and come

Hey!

Bring some apples and come

Hey

Bring the nuts and come

Hey!

Bring all the crops and come, come, come

Hey!

Bring a pumpkin and come

Hey!

Bring some berries and come

Hey!

Bring de conkers and come

Hey!

Bring all the crops and bring all the crops and

When we see the haverts moon

Yeah we like it

All the crops will come soon

Yeah we like it

See them birds flying high

Heading south through the sky

As they fly to migrate

Hedgehogs hibernate

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…

**** Recordaros a los papás y mamás que con esta actividad hemos dado un enfoque socio-cultural al aprendizaje del Inglés. Con esto conseguimos que no sólo adquieran el idioma, sino que conozcan  aspectos y costumbres de los países en los que se habla Inglés.***
