Today, we have almost finished with all the activities about Canada and we wish our students have had a good time while learning about this incredible country. Last week, all 1º ESO students sang “Land of the Silver Birch” and danced traditional folk music to celebrate this cultural week as we can see in these images and we want to thank Belén, the music teacher, and Adolfo, the physical education teacher, and their students for their great effort.

All the classes in the Bilingual Programme have participated in Kahoot contests and have seen short films about Canada. Presentations about History and Geography of Canada have also been done in 2º ESO classes .

And lots of groups have visited our exhibition and have taken photos in front of our Canadian Board and Totem Poles with their teachers, like 3º ESO A and their teacher Mª Jose …

… 1º ESO C with their teacher Mª del Mar…

and the groups 1º ESO A and 4ºESO with their teacher Amparo

Even though, we are reaching the end of the course and students have to focus on their exams and their last projects, we will go on watching some films set in Canada by the end of this course.

We hope we will continue learning about this country because we are lucky to have our language assistant Nick with us next course.

1 IB students have prepared different tasks in English about Nature and Culture for 1º ESO students in a wonderful setting: El Palmeral Beach. This gymkhana has been an amusing way to share experiences with students from different levels but with the same purpose: enjoy while learning.

After the activities, we had time to swim, eat and do some sports on the beach. This activity has been prepared by the teacher of English, Raúl with the help of the Biology, Physical Education,Arts and English Department and Aldea project.

We are so glad after this experience that we are convinced about preparing a new one.

3º ESO students have made a map and projects about different themes which give us a panoramic view about Canada. You can see this display on a big panel next to 3ºESO classes. We hope you enjoy it.

Some Inuit artists have developed an iconic style based on Nature. Our 1º ESO students with their Arts teacher have created patterns to decorate some of the most representative animals in Canada with the reference of those Inuit artists.
