Prostejov

Hello from Prostejov,

the weather here still looks like late summer but we could only wish it was.

We had Czech National Holiday last week which was really great to take a break so now we are full of energy and ready to start on our next parcel. We are expecting some new phrases, names of days, months and school subjects - this could be the most interesting topic for our children.
Children are looking forward to any other information about living in France and Spain.

We still have our exhibit too and we will send you some pictures.

It really doesn't look like it but Christmas is coming up very quickly. Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? We need ideas!

Hope all is well!

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

French Art Exhibition

Hi again!

Here we are again!
We start the second year of our Comenius project, with 3 different parcels and the school visit to Txec Republic in May.
This term, we will learn different expressions in French, Catalan and Txec. We are willing to practice them in your languages!
The second term we will send a parcel full of culture; traditional songs, costumes, food, dances, etc.
We still have the art exhibition shown in the school walls, and it will remain the whole year. By the way, we'd love to see your exhibitions, so it would be great if you could upload some pictures in the blog.
And for the next exhibition (in the third term) we will prepare another wall, this time to show the art of each region (Bretagne, Catalonia and Moravia)
So we'll keep in touch, and we'll be waiting for your news!

Spanish Art exhibition

The Spanish newsletter

Hello everybody from Sabadell. How are you?

What's the weather like in your countries? Is it cold? Here, in Sabadell, we had some "hot" days, last week. But it seems that, the next week, the weather will be cold again.

We apologize for writing this newsletter a little bit late, but we are very busy preparing our "Cultural Days" for the next week (to be precise, for the next Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). We are preparing different activities related to the Spanish Art, since the time when the first humans lived in caves, like in Altamira (Cantabria - Spain), until the 20th century, when we can find some famous Spanish artists like Pablo Picasso and Eduardo Chillida. As you can imagine, it is impossible to see all the Spanish Art in only three days, but we only have the intention of giving our pupils a small overview of some artistic and cultural expressions of the Spanish Art. Some of the different works that they will make during the "Cultural Days", will be part of the 3rd. parcel (about Art) we have to send in May.

However, our Comenius Team are preparing the material for the 2nd. parcel. We are choosing the words for the vocabulary related to the new topics and the pictures for the flashcards. But we will finish this work after the "white week" (a holiday week) that we will have from the 5th until the 13th of March.

By the way, we have a new postman for the next delivery of the second parcels. Her name is Sarah and you can meet and listen to her on the right column of our Comenius Blog.

And I think that's all for now. We hope you'll have a nice time.

Our best wishes for you from Sabadell.
