SAINT PATRICK'S DAY

Last Wednesday, it was Saint Patrick's Day. St Patrick's Day is the annual celebration of the patron saint of Ireland, St Patrick. At Los Olivos, we heard about the history behind this day, since we believe learning about the culture of English Speaking countries is as important as learning the English language. In some classrooms we viewed this short video, which was very interesting and pinpoints all the main facts about this day.

Afterwards, we carried out different activities in each grade. For instance, in 1st Grade we completed a four-leaf clover in which, by drawing and writing, we showed what we were lucky for. In 2nd Grade, we completed three clovers describing out leprechaun, using "can", "is" and "has". In 3rd Grade we learnt a lot of vocabulary related to St Patrick's Day and we also coloured the worksheet.

JULIA'S PRESENTATIONS

Good afternoon!

Today we would like to share with you two videos recorded by a our 6th Grade student Julia. She records these videos at home during her free time, which is a great way to practice her English and makes her improve it at the same time. Julia loves English language and playing the guitar, amongst other things. 

In this first video, she tells us about her hobbies.

 In this second video, she explains what Covid-19 is all about. How interesting!! 

Julia, thanks for your videos and well done on putting so much effort into your learning!!
