Thanksgiving!

It's been a busy month in Tarrío! First, it was Thanksgiving last week and the students celebrated with some Thanksgiving themed activities!

At the beginning of class, students learned about Thanksgiving history, traditions, and food, before sharing what they were thankful for.

Then, in 3rd and 4th grade, the students colored and cut out paper turkeys and decorated each feather with something they were thankful for. 





 The younger kids also made hand turkeys with paint!



















Not pictured are origami hand turkeys that the 5th and 6th graders did!

Before Thanksgiving, the preschool students made paper rainbows by arranging scraps of paper together. Here is some of their work!


Meanwhile, in arts and crafts class, the kids have been working on a few different projects. The 5th and 6th graders have finished their Xurxo Alonso paintings and below are some of the results!

WE ALL LOVE TONGUE-TWISTERS

Hello my dear students! How's everybody? Today I have a hilarious proposal for you. I'm sure everybody knows tongue-twisters, these complicated, short sentences that make your tongue go wrong because of the similar sounds they have. Have a look at this video and see how complicated and FUN they are. Now, I dare you to do the same with some more simple ones:   - Red lorry, yellow lorry.   - I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice-cream.  Dont't worry if you are not able to do it, it takes lot of practice!!  Finally, I give you the solutions to the animal word search I posted yesterday.

Valentine's Day and more Arts & Crafts

This past month, students in Tarrío celebrated Valentine's Day by learning about customs in the U.S. and doing crafts! Activities were split by age group. While the 5th and 6th graders watched a presentation on how Valentine's Day is traditionally celebrated in America, the younger students worked on decorating cards for their friends and family.   In Arts & Crafts class, students have been working on a variety of cool projects. The 3rd and 4th graders have been finishing up their Luis Seoane paintings, while the 5th and 6th graders were hard at work using a shading technique to color circles they had drawn.         Each class has also been recreating paintings from a famous Galician painter. Pictured here is 6th C working on a Xurxo Alonso painting, but other painters include Urbano Lugrís and Luis Seoane.
