PAPER PLANES CONTEST

It's because there are only 4 days left to finish our school year, because it was a beautiful afternoon and because we LOVE to have fun, that we've spent the afternoon learning and making our PAPER PLANES. First we watched tutorials, then we invented our plane designs and ended the afternoon with a fantastic contest!! Good job champs!!

Welcome to The Children's Restaurant

"The Rstaurant" is the final production of our Food Project. Kids have enjoyed every moment of the creation of our restaurant. We invited NFS Head teachers to try the best food in town, prepared with love, by the best 1st formers in the planet!!!

Enjoy this delicious dish!!

FOOD & APPetite: getting ready for The Restaurant

We've had a conversation about restaurants. The discussion was focused on each of the roles and duties performed in a restaurant. We came up with this ideal organization for our own, that already has a name: The Children's Reastaurant...suggested and voted by all 1st form students.

One of these important roles is that of the CHEFF: in this particular case, we are talking about DESSERTS CHEFF (patissiere)..Enjoy his 1st recipe!!!!

...on a DOC ..in CLASSROOM

DO YOU WANT TO KNOW HOW TO WORK ON A SHARED DOC?

It's easy:
We log in to classroom with our usernames and password.
Then we read the instructions: "write a description about this picture...but in a team, altogether!
Once we are all there..in the DOC sheet we start our description in turns.
OK...we also play for a while..we can't help it,..!!!
But the description is done just on time!!!
And this is how we work in teams..on a DOC sheet.

JUST K.I.S.S.!!!

GOOGLE CLASSROOM STEP 2:

Our first assignment for Classroom is DRAW OUR HOUSES, LABEL THEM  and UPLOAD to GOOGLE CLASSROOM.

We start the lesson with a short revision, since kids must remember how to access and sign in with their user names and passwords.

As students easily systematize the process, it is quite simple to focus on the task and complete it successfuly.

Enjoy the lesson!!!!!!

GOOGLE CLASSROOM: Pilot Program

Google offers a platform for schools to work using different applications. It´s an online classroom where students develop and master technology & apps, a perfect excuse to use the language naturally.

Our first assignmet is to learn our "user names". This lesson will provide students a tutorial on how to type their email address (user name). This is the starting point to enter the platform and have access to each lesson.

Enjoy the tutorial!! We are looking forward toworking on the TASK 1 of Google Classroom.

                                           

The three little pigs hangout

1st form students performed "The 3 little pigs" play in a HANGOUT ON AIR.
We were connected with Newland School from Adrogué, and shared a great experience.

HOW TO CREATE A GAME? STEP 1

 Setting the rules is our first step in the creation of a video game. In 1st form we had an open discussion where we shared our opinions. Kids decided which were the main rules for the game, and suggested to make a T chart with CAN and CAN´T columns. Check them out to see how they suggest, solve, and justify each statement!!!

Using the App SKETCH NATION STUDIO, we have created a "videogame" to play on the Ipads. Enjoy the TUTORIAL, very well explained by: Lucho Bressan

¿QUÉ VES? Descubriendo una imagen....

En  primero F trabajamos con  una rutina de pensamiento  ZOOM IN. Consiste en proyectar una imagen e imaginamos a medida que íbamos descubriendo la imagen  ¿ qué les parecía que veían ? ¿ qué les hacia decir eso? Llegando a descubrir que era una imagen del cuento  El ladrón de llaves.

Our First Dictation

Today we had our first dictation!!! It was a team work where parents, students and teachers worked together in order to help students acquire a new writing method.

Not only writing is involved and developed, but also visual and auditory memory.

Kids must also overcome and get familiar with a testing atmosphere, that includes new rules and focuses on autonomy and self confidence.

              

The results were EXCELLENT!!! Congrats to all for this team work!!!
