This is the Fifa World Cup anthem "Waving Flag". K'naan sings it with our well-known David Bisbal. I like this song very much. Do you like it? I hope you enjoy singing it and perhaps dancing it. Come on!
K'naan was born in Somalia (Africa) in 1978. He's thirty-two years old. He now lives in Tornto (Canada). He is married and he has got two sons. He is a poet, rapper, singer, songwriter and instrumentalist.His music genres are hip hop and world music.
David Bisbal was born in Almeria (Spain)in 1979. He is a Latin Grammy-winning Spanish pop singer. He gained his initial fame as a runner up on the interactive reality television show Operación Triunfo produced by TJ Hall.

HAVING FUN
On these days we did some special activities with pre-primary children.
With 4-years-old kids we made a delicious cake. It´s very easy and they liked very much.If you want to make it this is the recipe:
* one bag of sponge fingers (unha bolsa de bizcoitos de soletilla)
* one tin of whipped cream (un bote de nata montada)
* one little tin of pineapple and one little tin of peach (un bote pequeno de piña e un de melocotón)
First you wet the sponge fingers in the peach syrup and put them in a tray or bowl.
Them you add the cream and finally you add the pineapple and peach.It´s easy, isn't it?
With the 5-years-old kids we went for a picnic. We had a big basket (Thank you Jose Mª because the basket belongs to our museum. It was perfect) and we put a tablecloth, napkins, glasses and spoons. We prepared some sandwiches, and we cut fruit (peach and pineapple). We put them in the basket and a melon, cherries and little cheese too.
Time for a picnic! We went to the playground and we ate ... Delicious food!

TALKING ABOUT PLANTS
The 3er level students went to 5-years-old classroom to talk about plants and flowers because they were studying about them.They know a lot of about what a plant needs to grow, the parts of a plant, the name of many flowers in English... and they wanted to show their knowledge to the youngest children.
It was a very beautiful experience. They told a story in English, they played a game all together and at the end they gave the children a bunch of flowers they had made with their teacher Fina F.(thank you!).
Thank you to Oliva (5-years-old teacher)for giving us this chance.
