Foot theater

We were the actors.  Our foot "showed" the theater.

Children were very creative and active.

Love the earth

 I spent the day in "Drugeliai" group. We talked that we need to support the Land. Do not throw rubbish everywhere. We need to sort of rubbish into certain containers. We played the game "Introduce Yourself" 

Now I know where to throw paper, plastic, glass.

Interesting story about the way of bread

I was in a group "Boružiukai". I learned an interesting thing about  the way of bread. I have never heard it before. 

Have a look!

.

We ate bread with jam. It was really
delicious.

 

With the youngest children in the kindergarten

I met a lot of new friends in Lithuania's 

kindergarten "Ąžuoliukas". In the group "Spinduliukai" children are friendly.They have fun, play games, sing songs, draw, do exercises with the teacher Loreta. I like spending a day in this group.

A WONDERFUL DAY WITH GABRIELE

Hello friends around Europe,

I came in Lithuania from  Greece.  The weather is different as night and day.

 In Lithuania is very cold and a lot of snow.

The first day in Lithuania I spent with Gabriele. 

She showed me the game "Cat in the sack"

 I played with her. She is a beautiful 7 years girl.

Card Games!

Here we are getting ready for our trip to Greece. We have put the card games the children have made into a box. They look wonderful. We have had fun playing them with the classes. I wonder which of the games each country will receive?

The children's letters are also ready to be delivered. Mr Thompson is handing them to Mrs Crossland so she can deliver them to the teachers in Greece. Each child has drawn a portrait of themselves.

Well I'd best go. We have to be up early in the morning ready for our flight from Manchester to Athens. I hope we will get some food on the aeroplane.

Much love and best wishes,
Nica (and Smarandita) xxxxxxx

Sikh Temple Visit with Year 5

Hello friends at home,

 

Today we visited the Sikh temple. It is called a Gurdwara. Here we are at school before our coach arrived.

 

We visited the Langar Hall where Sikhs welcome visitors with a meal and drinks.

 

 

Here we are having quiet thoughts in the temple.

 

This is the Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikh holy book. Can you see how special it is? It sits on a bed in the temple.

 

 

As a sign of respect we covered our heads. Can you see that Mr ford is wearing a Sikh turban?

 

 

We even listened to some music!

  

Bye for now,

Nica and Smarandita xxxx
