How can we make people happy? 

Now, compare these two images and talk about the children feelings and emotions.

 

Art about art

• How do they feel?
• What do you think they were doing just before they were portrayed?

Art and crafts.

Students create Mandalas using felt- tipped pens and colors pencils. They are used to enjoy art, to relax, to express our emotions, to decorate or to compose craft works.

         

 

Animals and emotions

Do animals have feelings and emotions?
Let´s watch this video and try to answer the questions.

Do you think animals help people to improve their emotions and lifes?

Learning history in English

Today, 5th level students have learnt a lot about History using a Time Machine created by teacher Sofía.  Students have enjoyed a lot and during two weeks they are going to learn more and more.

Creativity and occupations

Students draw what it is said in the task and talk about why they take this decision about the worker: Is it a man or a woman? Why?

Using this activity, we can see if our students have some preconceptions about genre and proffessions.

The results are very interesting. As far our students are older, they have more difficulties to break their preconceptions. On the other hand,  younger students draw workers as their own genre image. (if they are girls, they draw girls, but if they are boys they usually draw boys) Nevertheless, there are some proffessions which are very linked to the genre as: politician, nurse, teacher or soldier.

 

Love display at school

Our students write love messages using Typorama app and show them in a wonderful display at school hall.  Little students create beautiful hearts using different colours and help us to decorate school.

Activities about love

We can use lots of different activities to work the feeling of love. Here we are some examples of activities we do in class.

Valentine´s day vocabulary

Let´s review the vocabulary related to Valentine´s Day.

Our cancer bandanas

6th level students design cancer bandanas for children who have this disease and need them. Our students learn about the disease, how it affects different organs, read about healthy habits and design bandanas in a paper.
After that, students voted and decided which was the nicest and the most representative bandana from the school. Then, we called an specialized company to print it in real fabric bandanas.

 

Art

Art is a great tool to develop linguistic competence and talking about emotions.

What is inside your head?

 

 

Art and crafts

Students create this beautiful craft to show us their daily routines. They can talk about what they do everyday and their favorite activities.

Let´s debate!

Look at these images and answer the questions.

How many women can you see in the pictures?

Are there more men or women?

What are the women wearing?

Now, look at these actual images and answer:

Who are they? Do you know them?

How many women can you see in the pictures?

Can you name some influential women in our society?

Why do you think there are not as many women as men in the photo?

Art and crafts

It´s very cold in our city. It´s Winter time, so 6th level students create this beautiful craft about ice skating using their own photos.

          

5th level students empower themselves creating their own superhero emblem: choosing colors, forms, fonts...
