Halloween 2018

This year, the English teachers, Xesca, Joana and Angie, along with the help of our conversation assistant, Claire, decided to decorate the hallways of the school for Halloween.

From the youngest kids, right up to the eldest, different forms of arts and crafts were created to give a "Halloweeny" feeling to the school. The kids were delighted with the outcome. Times are changing and Halloween is becoming more important in Majorca, so we like to go where our kids take us!!

OP ART - our new art project

In grade 6, we've just discovered an artist called Bridget Riley. She's been painting for many years but her paintings are special because they form part of the OP ART movement. OP ART deals with optical illusions, which means that we have to work hard with our eyes to see things that are not really there, or that are there but hidden away!

We had great fun discovering this type of art... and now, we're creating our own work! You'll soon be able to see it here... keep your EYES open for our very own Montaura OP ART!!!

SEA ANIMALS IN GRADE 2

Just before Christmas we had a great time in second grade learning lots of fun things about marine animals... they are such strange creatures...  we watched videos, learned the names and different information about some of them, manipulated small rubber toys and made a great big mural of the sea! Now we know a lot more about these animals!

Emotions and feelings with GLAD MONSTER, SAD MONSTER

Glad Monster Sad Monster is a book about feelings with fun monster masks that children can try on and talk about times when they feel glad, sad, loving, worried, silly, angry and scared—just like the monsters! Each monster is a different color to represent specific emotions. 

We have made our own masks after some days speaking about emotions.
