Step 1:

Take a sheet of black construction paper and draw two circles for the brim of the hat. The diameter of the inner circle has to be suitable for your head. So draw it accordingly.

Step 2:

Now cut out along the outer circle.

Step 3:

Next would be to cut out the inner circle. We will call the small piece as Piece A and the ring like piece as Piece B. Keep the pieces aside – we will be using them a little later.

Step 4:

Now take a rectangular sheet of black construction/chart paper and roll it like a partial cone. Only that this cone would have an opening at the top. The circumference of the bottom part has to match the inner diameter of  Piece B. Use glue to secure the structure.

Step 5:

Take Piece A and cut along the edges.

Step 6:

Fold these strips downward.

Step 7:

Insert this piece at the top of the conical structure we made in Step 4 and glue it.

Step 8:

Take a rectangular piece of yellow construction paper and cut it out like a buckle.

Step 9:

Fold a rectangular sheet of white paper like a strip. Make two-to three folds to get the strip. The width of the strip should be suitable for inserting in the buckle made.

Step 10:

Insert the strip in the buckle.

Step 11:

Glue this strip as shown.

Step 11:

Now attach the brim. The procedure of attaching would be similar to how we closed the opening at the top of the hat. You can alternatively apply white adhesive to the brim and attach it too.

You have a pilgrim hat for thanksgiving.

PAPER PILGRIM BONNET

We need the paper bonnets to play out scenes from the first Thanksgiving. You can do the cutting,  the gluing and tying. It´s easy!

This is a bonnet template and you can use it as a guide on a piece of heavy-stock paper.

 Click on this image and print the template.

Use hole punch to make a hole on each side, 1/2 inch beneath fold line and 1/2 inch from edge. Mark spots 5 1/2 inches from each bottom edge, then make a 3-inch vertical cut line from each point.

Fold across dotted line to make cuff; thread ribbon through each hole. Fold bottom corners inward to create back of bonnet, above, and secure with glue dots; fold down back flap and secure with glue dots.

YEAR 5   THE SMARTEST GIANT IN TOWN 
  We are beginning to learn how to work in groups in order to do Problem Based Learning projects. This project is about a book called "The Smartest Giant in Town".

In one of the activities they had to order the story so that it would make sense.

They also had to investigate wich words of the story couldn´t understand and write them in a tie to explain later to the rest of the class.

Another activity was to write the name of some clothes.

Each group had a chance to do all the activities of this project, including drawing and colouring the giant in the poster. What a wonderful job they have done!

Estamos aprendiendo como trabajar en equipo con PBL (Aprendizaje Basado en Problemas). Hemos trabajado un cuento llamado "The Smartest Giant in town" para conseguir este magnífico poster el alumnado ha tenido que investigar vocabulario desconocido, aprenderse la canción del cuento, familiarizarse con las prendas de vestir que utiliza el gigante, ordenar la estructura del cuento, responder a unas preguntas, etc... y finalmente el resultado ha sido maravilloso.

YEAR 5    VIDEO CONFERENCE

All year five have done some video conferences with children of the Unitated States. They were very nervous, but they did a really great job. WELL DONE!!!

Todo quinto ha disfrutado de video conferencias con alumnado de los Estados Unidos. Estaban muy nerviosos pero estuvieron geniales. ¡ENHORABUENA!

YEAR 3    ANIMALS

Children have been working on animals and they´ve done a great job. Here are some pictures of the process.

Los alumnos de tercero han estado trabajando los animales en inglés.

YEAR 5     ENGLISH CORNER

          Some weeks ago we started a reading project, some of us brought interesting english books and comics to read in class, but only pupils who finished activities that we did in class could pick up a book and read.

          From here we request pupils of year 5 to bring/lend english books to complete our english corner.

Entre todos estamos creando un pequeña biblioteca de inglés para ello hemos traído algunos de nosotros libros, comics hasta puzzles en inglés para leer una vez que hayamos terminado las actividades realizadas en clase como premio por terminarlas a tiempo.

Por lo que hacemos un llamamiento a los alumnos/as de quinto de primaria para que traigan material de inglés que se les devolverá al finalizar el curso.

YEAR 3   TASTY FRUIT SALAD

Last week pupils of year 3 brought fruit to class to make a delicious Fruit Salad. To begin the class we sang "The Wiggles" to remember the steps of making one, and then we cut up all the fruit. Once this was done, and everyone had fruit on their plate in groups of four they went around the class asking for fruit they didn´t have:

Would you like some apples/bananas/oranges/melon/grapes...?

Other groups answered: Yes, please. I´d like or we´d like some...

Or: No, thanks.

Another stucture we practiced was: Can I have some pears, please?



YEAR 3     FRUITS&VEGETABLES

To make the most of this unit we brought Fruit and vegetables to class so that children could manipulate it in order to learn the words and some structures.

 They were asked : would you like some peas? If they said Yes, please. They also had to say: I´d like some peas.

Or they could answer: No, thanks.

 Hemos traído frutas y verduras a clase para que los alumnos y alumnas de tercero las manipulen y aprendan sus nombres y algunas estrucuras.

Se les preguntó: Would you like some peas?

Podían dar dos respuestas: Yes, please. I´d like some peas o No, thanks.

YEAR 5       DIALOGUE  N2

This is the dialogue of Unit 6, children love learning dialogues this way,It´s easier for them because they take part in the process helping to draw or suggesting what we can say. Furthermore they focus on pronunciation, because they don´t read words.

Este es el diálogo de la Unidad 6. Para los niños/as es más fácil estudiar los diálogos de esta forma, puesto que intervienen en el proceso, ya sea dibujando o elegiendo algunas frases del diálogo. Al no haber palabras, no leen, por lo que focalizan su atención en lo que se les dice, es decir  en la pronunciación.

YEAR 5     DISCOVER AMAZING EARTH

This is the book Year 5 have been reading  to understand what the earth is and how earthquakes and Tsunamis are caused.

It´s a magic skeleton book you have to pull the tabs to discover the powers of nature!

 Este es el libro que los quintos han leído para entender que son los terremotos y los tsunamis que salen en la historieta de la unidad. ¡Es un libro mágico!
