Thought I'd share this with everyone- very excited! Sad! Have been using a voice recorder for a long time in the 'language' classroom which has a USB so the children can hear themselves straightaway but have now purchased a Flip Video Recorder- yes I bough…

Madrid images.ppt
Hiya all

May be useful to compare and contrast! A yellow post box?
Can the children spot what the other things are?
The park images are 'el retiro'- very famous in Madrid and highly populated with families on a Sunday aft…

Just thought I would share this idea- so proud of the children. We have been looking at the story of cinderella and have been looking at adjectives/ masculine and feminine. Here are some of the results for Year 3 and 4. I was going to get the year 3 to stick the appropriate adjectives onto the sheet but lack of glue…

Have sent my kids to playscheme so I can do some work- much to their disgust. Have done a powerpoint of Juanito to use in September -images scanned from a book and text mainly from qca. Have blogged it in case any…

The series is set in the old town of Oviedo in Asturias in northern Spain. In programme one, Luis is just opening his shop for the first time, pinning up a job advertisement for an assis…
