Tumble

Normally me and Leo go riding on a Monday and Hayley goes to Art class. We finish earlier than her tho'. So while we're waiting for her to finish this is what we get up to ...

La observación científica

Para nuestro examen de las flores, hice algunas fotos de las flores de nuestro jardín. Les presento una mini película que mi madre hizo de mis fotos.

Fiesta del Otoño

Before the Battle of the leaves (Batalla de las Hojas) .. we learned about Autumn.
Some of the mum's made really tasty cakes.
We had a presentation before we ate them, where the Mums gave a talk on all the things that you find in nature that you can eat in Autumn.  Mum spoke about Grapes (Uvas) .. she gave the presentation in Spanish!! We then sang a song...
And then to the serious business of eating.
mmmmmmm delicioso!

I'm way at the end of the table .. but there was still loads left.	My friend Cesar beside me
Eating before we went to battle!	Nice weather for the MIDDLE of November :)

Batalla de las hojas!

Because we live so near the sea, there's not so many leaves as other places.  So we went to forests near by to collect them (see here CLICK). 

Anyway .. we got loads and this is what happened to our leaves!  We went crazy!  

See me ..... I'm just under the tree....   (this is our school yard and the man with the sunglasses - Manu - my teacher) 

Preparados....

listos...

...... and in the movie ... right in the middle for like one second before I'm buried ...

 

¡ya

What fun!

La Letra -A-

Troy did the letter A in school this week so he and his sister made a letter A with their body.

Y este fue el video que encontramos, que nos gustaba, por la letra A

Monsters

On my first few days at Cañada Blanch we discoverd "Donde Viven Los Monstrous".  We have this book at home. Fue nuestro primer libro en español cuando éramos muy pequeños ...

Today we talked about Monsters with mum.  

We went through all the books that we have here in Tarifa and looked at all the pictures.  Some of the things my mum thought were monsters I did not.   For me monsters have to be scary and they have to be real monsters, not muddy ones like in 'Room on a Broom'.

Very few of the animals in Dr. Seuss are monsters ... as when I thought about it - they have to be scary.

So here's our top three.

We really like "street monsters" and often draw them in our breakfast in the mornings with honey!

We also like the Cookie Monster

And the one that I like most are Monster Trucks !!

After talking about Monsters we went to the beach and drew street monsters in the sand .. but in Tarifa they're called Monstruos de Arena! 

This is what Osos y Leones said about Monsters and the Book.
