Interactive word searches

Hello!
Filipe shared with me a cool alternative to photocopied crossword puzzles / word search worksheets regarding the theme “Family”.
It is environment friendly and appealing to the pupils.
It is an interactive word search puzzle and once you finish you can “rescramble” the letters and do it all over again.
I chose to have the 4th Grade pupils work in pairs to strengthen team work

Carnival



Hi! Here at Externato de S. João we also celebrated Carnival. We had lots of fun drawing and colouring the masks.
We chose pig and cat masks, as well as clown masks.
It was lots of fun!!










Carnival Celebration at Escola do Faial

Hello there!
For this year’s Carnival we chose “Food from our Region” as the theme. So we dressed up as fruit and vegetables. Not only was it fun but also educational since we learned the names of some vegetables and fruit.
We went on a parade trough the main streets of Faial and everybody had a great time
