HALLOWEEN IS COMING

Next week is a very exciting week here at Santa Olaya. It happens to be my favorite holiday--Halloween! We have prepared some fun and spooky activities to celebrate! Keep checking the blog to see all that we are doing. Happy Halloween!!

DARON

To introduce my self to year 5, I prepared a PowerPoint presentation and explained a bit about my life back in the United States.
First, I began explaining how the United States is organized and what part of the country I am from. Then, I talked a bit about my home state, Oregon, and showed pictures of what the area looks like. I talked a bit about my family, pets, and hobbies in order to give them a sense of who I am and what my life is like back home. You can have a look at my presentation and also some pictures that were taken while I was presenting! Afterwards, the students in year 5 had to complete a worksheet filling in blanks about what I had said. They also had to ask a few questions of their own!
All in all, it was a very fun class!

SURPRISE!

Today in year 5, I was surprised with a halloween song the students had prepared! It´s called "The Skeleton Dance" and is about all the bones in the body. Have a look! I thought it was very entertaining and a very special surprise!
