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!

And these?
We can also classify animals in many other ways. Watch this video to learn more!
