Arts and crafts are lost...

As you know, the current educational law in Spain erased Very important contents for you, like arts and crafts. You are always complaining about not learning in this funny subject for you.

Miguel Angel, one of your classmates from 4B asked me if I could share with you some resources for practice Origami or paper folding. It's obvious that as your teacher, I want you to learn as much knowledge as you can, therefore here you have some resources for children:

You know that I'm always using my IPad for looking for interesting activities for you, and I've found two valuable applications.

FOLDIFY is a incredible application for preparing our own folds.

Carnival time at School!!

A minstrel called Crispín was here....

Our music teacher, Yolanda, invited one minstrel to visit us and perform with his "strange" instruments.

He was very interesting for us, because of his dress, his way of communicate, his knowledge of many medieval musical instruments and his amazing story about the "Cabra Montesina", a popular Spanish story.

In the next video, you can check how was the performance of an English minstrel song, enjoy again!!
