Halloween was this past week and the students in Tarrío were working on a bunch of different activities! In groups of four or five, the 6th graders were writing advertisements pretending that haunted houses were for sale. Then they created paintings of them to accompany the ads. Meanwhile, the 5th graders got in the mood for Halloween by reading a story about a boy's adventures on a dark, dark night, then wrote and illustrated their own. Here is the 5th A video. And the 5th B one. And last but not least, the 5th C video. Finally, in arts and crafts class, students were cutting out pieces of felt, foam, wax paper, magazines, and other materials to look like sailboats, the last part of a sea-themed Xurxo Alonso painting they hadn't yet completed.
