What’s the weather like today?

kirstyjay — Mon, 25 Oct 2010 13:53:51 +0000

In class, we have been working with the weather… and as a fun project, all the children have become weather boys and girls.

each class had to watch the weather forecast on TV, or read it in the newspaper. For homework, they had to write a sentence or two about the weather over the weekend, then in English class we recorded them giving us their forecast!

Getting ready for the first Comenius Meeting

kirstyjay — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 14:56:09 +0000

It’s been an interesting 7 days… What, with a whirlwind day trip to Madrid and enough information to send us loopy, however we can now start planning the programme for our first week of meetings with earnest.

Our friends (all fifteen of them) will arrive in the latter half of November and stay for a week. In that time, we hope to not only foment a programme for the following 2 year project, but also show our visitors our picturesque island and leave a lasting impression.

Our partners, and therefore visitors, consist of teachers from 6 other countries…. Our original penpal partners in Salisbury, UK plus contingents from Lithuania, Turkey, Romania, Poland and Greece.

Now to get the accommodation sorted! If anyone has ideas for cultural activities, please feel free to comment, as at present all the usual outlets have a vacuum of culture for the week of 16th to 18th November.

Comenius here we come!!!

kirstyjay — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 15:44:08 +0000

We have found out today that our application for a European Lifelong Learning Programme Comenius grant has been approved!

We have been awarded 20,000€ to fund a new project entitled ‘Understanding our Environment’ which will consist of 8 different schools across Europe working together.

Our partner schools are in Sardina (Italy), Istanbul (Turkey), Kavala (Greece), Salisbury (UK), Łódź (Poland) and Craiova (Romania). The 20,000€ will largely go towards funding trips to the partner schools, so 5º and 6º can look forward to an interesting year ahead with visits to fantastic locations in the European Union.

A new website will be set up for the project and I will post about this at a later date.

See a map of all the partner school locations HERE.

Here are all the lyrics and a few things to help you learn the Christmas Song, ‘Jingle Bell Rock!’

Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Chingel bel, chingel bel, chingel bel rok

Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring

Chingel bels souing and chingel bels ring

Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun

Snouing and blouing ap boshels of fan

Now the jingle hop has begun

Nau de chingel hop has bigan

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock

Chingel bel, chingel bel, chingel bel rok

Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time

Chingel bels chaim in chingel bel taim

Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square

Dansin and pransin in chingel bel squer

In de frosty air.

In de frosti er

What a bright time, it’s the right time

Ouot a brait taim, it’s de rait taim

To rock the night away

Tu rok de nait aouwai

Jingle bell time is a swell time

Chingel belt aim is a souel taim

To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh

Tu go glaidin in a ouon hors slei

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet

Gidi-ap chingel hors, pik ap yor fit

Jingle around the clock

Chingel around de clok

Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet

Miks and a-mingel in de chingelin fit

That’s the jingle bell (that’s the jingle bell, that’s the jingle bell) rock.

Dats de chingel bel (dats de chingel bel, dats de chingel bel) rok.
