Y3: Vivo en Burscough/ Columbus Day

Today we have learned to say where we live.
Vivo en Burscough.
Vivo en Southport.
Vivo en Rufford.

Now we can say 4 sentences about ourselves:
Me llamo George.
Tengo 7 años.
Soy inglés.
Vivo en Burscough.

We have written this sentence down in our Spanish books and we remembered that v is pronounced as b in Spanish, like in verde or nueve.

Today and next week we are celebrating Columbus Day. This famous explorer discovered America. His trips were paid by the Spanish King and Queen, and he had to spread Spanish and the Catholic religion to new territories.
They speak Spanish in 21 countries and we started to decorate a long bunting with the flags of these countries. We have almost finished them, next week we will hang them up.

 
We looked at the map of his first trip, if you want to see it again, click here.



We watched a short video and had to answer 1 question: Where does Spanish come from? The answer is: LATIN!

Don't forget we have two competitions:
1,Decorate the letter ñ , all the entries need to be in next week. The prize is a Spanish book!
2, Find "Hello" in Portuguese in the Languages of the World book, it is in the corridor!

And remember to donate your pre-loved books to our Spanish partner school's library, they will be happy to have Postman Pat, Thomas the Tank Engine or any old books you don't need! Gracias!
