See you at the movies!

Today was a very special day at school for 1st and 2nd grade. In the morning, we turned our classrooms into a cinema. Everything was there: the film posters, the seat numbers, the screen, the projector, the loudspeakers, the tickets, the trailers... even the popcorn cones! We worked a lot to earn some play money so we could pay the ticket price at the box-office: 1,45€.

After lunch, when everybody had bought a ticket, we got some popcorn and enjoyed the movies!

I can't wait to have more fun tomorrow! Who is your favourite movie character?

Saint Patrick's Day!

St. Patrick's Day or the feast of Saint Patrick is celebrated on March 17th every year in honor of the anniversary of his death in 460 AD. St. Patrick was a patron of Ireland and devoted his himself to the christian religion. 

There are many symbols that represent this festive holiday and one is the Shamrock, the official flower of Ireland. St. Patrick used the shamrock to explain the holy trinity to the Irish and legend says that if you fund a four leaf clover on Saint Patrick's Day it will bring you luck. Each of the four leaves of the lucky clover represent hope, faith, love and luck! 

There are other popular symbols too: Leprechaun, Pot of Gold, rainbows, the harp and the color green. There are many countries in the world that celebrate St. Patrick's Day with parades, parties, dancing, drinking green colored beverages, eating corn beef and cabbage and many people wear green clothing, hats and shammrock pins to avoid being pinched. Don't forget to wear green on this Irish holiday!

Here is a message for you:

"Hey class,
It was really great meeting you all the other day and I look forward to working with you for the rest of the school year.
I'm Luke as I'm sure you all know by now and I'm from Durban, South Africa where I live with my family. We have a big garden, two cats and lots of wildlife. For me there is no place on Earth that compares to my home in South Africa. Hope you all enjoy the pictures I've shared. Luke"

Welcome, Luke, we are very happy to have you in our class!

Hello Gummy Bears!

Here are some pictures and videos to get to know me and my homeland a little better.

This is a picture of me at the Grand Canyon. It is the largest canyon in the world. In some places it is nearly 2000m deep! Wow! For more information on the Grand Canyon, click here.

New Mexico has a very large Native American population. They have a really interesting culture. Some of the oldest cities in the United States are in New Mexico. The picture is of Taos Pueblo where Native Americans still live! The video is some of their traditional dances.

This is  the New Mexico state flag. Notice how it has the same colors as Spain's flag. It was actually part of Spain many many years ago. The sun in the middle is a Native American symbol called the Zia Symbol. It contains a lot of information for one tiny symbol.

I am from Albuquerque and it has the biggest hot air balloon festival in the world. It is called The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta. Watch the video to see how awesome it is!

If you have any questions or want to know more, ask me in class!!

Michael

P.S. Here you can see Albuquerque on a world map. It is very far from Madrid!
