Happy Easter holidays

Once again 2nd term has finished and I can hardly believe that I got this far. A year ago I was still getting my chemo (immunotherapy) sessions and was still waiting to be operated for the fifth time within a year.

Amazing as it sounds, I’m ready to start Easter holidays once more and I couldn’t be more grateful for having gotten up to this point. For the first time in two years I’m wishing my students the best Easter holidays possible ♥!

Easter crafts 2012

We’ve been terribly busy in the classroom this last two weeks making the traditional Easter cards, with a huge ’thank you’ to Pinterest for the inspiration :)

I’ve been loving every minute in these classes though it’s been really tough sometimes. Anyways, these were my proposals:

Left to right, up and down:

  1. Bunny mask , 1st grade
  2. Candy holder, 2nd
  3. Non-felt Easter bunny (;-), 3rd
  4. Easter origami flower card, 4th, outside

Left to right, up and down:

  1. Easter origami flower card, 4th, inside
  2. Pop-up Easter card, 5th, outside
  3. and 4. Standing bunnies (2 templates), 6th

And these were the results!:

To top it all off, everyone will be getting a candy from the Halloween spare ones, so I guess tomorrow will be a nice day here at the English classroom :-)

Oh, I almost forgot!!! 2nd graders had a great time taking part in the Hopping Bunnies Race in the playground and the winner was Kilian. I intend to do the same with 1st graders after the holidays. Will keep you informed!

♥ Games to *play English* these Xmas holidays ♥

Play in English and have fun!

 

You can find these and more games (adventure, maze, puzzles, etc) in Mr. Ferrell website.

Also remember the fab games in American Girl, Poptropica, Dots and Diamond , EdulandPenguin Club and The Moms and Kids Playground. You surely don’t want to miss them ;-) !

And now, my best wishes for you all: a happy Christmas time and a fantastic 2012.

We’ll be meeting again on Jan 9th 2012. Take care!

Got milk? Get the Glass!

The -hard to believe but true- story

I’ve just come across this flash game I was very fond of last year. I didn’t bookmark it because I went back several times from IE History and when holidays ended I just forgot about it. Later I tried to remember its name or any clue to google it but I didn’t succeed. Mysteriously I’ve found its shortcut fifteen minutes ago in my games folder. Can you believe it? I got this computer -with MS Vista- last November; my former PC had MS XP. Nothing to do. Hard to believe. But real as the sun.

Getting back to the title in this post, Get the Glass! is a Flash game copyrighted by the California Milk Processor Board as part of its campaign to promote milk drinking in the States. Apart from Get the Glass! their Got Milk? site is worth visiting to read about health benefits, get some tasty recipes or play some other games.
