Happy New Year!!!!
We have started this term learning the shapes in the Red Class.
We love to make them with our hands and body. Square, rectangle, triangle, circle, oval, star and heart.I have used a book about the shapes we can find on a daily basis and everywhere.
Children love this unit and there are lots of activities related with geometric shapes they can connect with. I am posting all the songs we´ve been listening to. So much fun!!
Greetings,
Lola
Hello dear families,
The Red Class is on a rocket! Our routines in English class let us treat such different topics each day, as the weather or the feelings.
Besides that, we are also starting playing with Jolly Phonics, looking for the letters in the floor is so funny!

We continue talking about the autumn and, of course, reading books every day. It looks like Pete the Cat is going to be our new classmate this year! We absolutely love him in the Red Class!
See you soon,
Lola
Dear families,
I am so happy to discover to what extent they already understand English!
We started this school year reviewing our English class routines and teaching our new classmates how we enjoy our English lessons as «we play a lot with Lola».
This year we have met Pete, a veeeeery cute cat. He has taught that school is a very happy place for us.
We have also play a lot in the Red Class with colours and we’ve been also learning some fruits and vegetables, playing with the classroom toys and pretending we were in a restaurant («I want a tomato, please!»). I am pretty sure that their favourite song this unit was this one!:
We have also having fun with a lot of crazy mixes that our kids have proposed and I will tell you that I have listened more that one «Yummy» after a weird proposal!
The Fall Season has just started and our little ones can see and feel the changes around them: the leaves are changing colors, the trees are losing their foliage, days are getting longer, and the weather is slowly getting colder.

We have been working in Autumn theme, and along with it comes Halloween, the most popular English holiday. Our children at Alquería ask for Halloween songs and stories and claim: – They are not scary enough!
We have been dancing like skeletons with these songs and learning about the costumes we were going to wear in our different Halloween parties .
See you soon,
Lola
Hello everybody!
The goal of this post is to welcome you all to our languages blog at Alquería and to inform you that we will have recurring information about the English and French classes via this blog about every 2 weeks.
For those who are new parents, my name is Lola and I am the English teacher from the blue class to Year 2.
Welcome to school one more time! I am delighted to have your kids back. Our children have grown soooo fast this summer. A special and warm hello to those new parents this year at Alquería. Nice to meet you all.
This year we are also welcoming a new English teacher at school, Nina. You will get to know her in Year 1 and Year 2, although she is the English teacher from Year 3 to Year 6 too.
See you soon!
Lola and Nina
Hello dear families!
During the last weeks, we have been doing funny games to revise what we have learnt during this year. We repeated some of our favourite games and sang some of our favourite songs.
We have been also focused on the topic of the Summer and learned a lot about this season. We love Summer in the Red Class!!
I hope you all have an amazing summer!
See you soon, take care!
All the best,
Lola
