PEACE DAY 2021

Hi everyone!

Another year we celebrated the "School Day of Non-violence and Peace" that is observed on January 30 or thereabouts every year, on the anniversary of the death of Mahatma Gandhi. This year we were working on that into the classrooms, due to the pandemic context, doing activities about peace and its consequences and listening songs in order to get people involved in this topic.

For instance, 5ºC have worked on the origin and meaning of the symbols in Lengua and Ciudadanía classes (relating it to emigration). The symbols have been made in Art and the famous quotes about peace and the song "I have got peace in my fingers" in English class... The final mural above this text is the visual product of the children's work on peace. Great job teacher Lourdes 👏👏

You can check more works in other leveles through pictures shown bellow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HOW TO... from Emily

Hello Friends,
Emily here! Many of our students know I love to cook - and eat. My favorite way to learn about different cultures is through ... you guessed it, food! With that being said, I feel one of the best ways to exchange cultures is thorough experimenting with the cuisine. For that reason, I would love to share with our students and their families some of my favorite typical “American” recipes.

American cuisine is a beautifully chaotic combination of foods from around the world made into our own renditions. This is because the United States of America is incredibly diverse and home to people from everywhere and anywhere in the world. I want to share these classic recipes with our students and their families so that everyone can have a taste of the madness!

I will share one recipe monthly, all of which will be simple, delicious, and fun to make together as a family. If you recreate the recipes please send a photo - I would love to see your creations!
