This year some important celebrations have coincided with the weekend and for this reason we had to work on them before or after the date.
Valentine's Day was during the carnival. We were working on it with presentations, worksheets and some arts and crafts before the date.
And now it is St. Patrick's Day, a very important event in Ireland and wherever Irish people live.
We started by remembering or learning about the origin of this celebration, and some important legends and traditions around it, such as the leprechaun and his pot of gold.
The students really enjoyed participating in the different activities and arts and crafts.
The youngest ones made shamrocks to decorate the board in the school hall. They listened to Irish music and even danced a traditional dance.
The others watched a video telling the story of St. Patrick. They learnt vocabulary and made crafts:
A door hanger, a mini-book and a greeting card. They also carried out other activities related to this event.
Our school now has a green air and a spring spirit!!
