¡Buenos días, familias!

Hoy es oficialmente el último día del segundo trimestre escolar. En primer lugar, quiero agradeceros a todos vuestra colaboración, interés y dedicación para poder seguir con las clases desde casa. Soy consciente por todos los trabajos que me han llegado de que todos los niños y niñas han estado trabajando duro.

En segundo lugar, os quiero pedir disculpas por los problemas técnicos que haya podido haber sobre todo con el correo electrónico y por si no he sido capaz de ver la realidad que tenéis en vuestras casas a la hora de proponer el trabajo.

Parece que tras la vuelta de las vacaciones (14 de abril) seguiremos un tiempo funcionando a distancia. Por este motivo, desde el colegio hemos habilitado una plataforma virtual para centralizar todo el trabajo de los alumnos. Se llama TEAMS y pertenece al entorno de Microsoft. Por supuesto, es gratuita. Os ha debido llegar una circular a ROBLE  de parte de Damián explicando todo. 

Podríamos decir que las clases vuelven a través de TEAMS a la vuelta de las vacaciones. Esta plataforma da la opción de hacer videoconferencias y comenzaré a utilizarla. Por lo que ya no seguiré utilizando el blog. 

Para poder acceder, tenéis que hacerlo desde un correo de educa.madrid. Ana os hará llegar un documento con el usuario y clave de vuestro/a hijo/a para que habilitéis la cuenta de educa.madrid.

Allí encontraréis un correo de invitación para daros de alta en TEAMS. 

Os pido que dediquéis un momento con vuestros hijos para conocer la plataforma y facilitar así el funcionamiento cuando vuelvan las clases. 

Con el fin de que estos días que comienzan sean realmente de vacaciones para los niños, no vamos a poner nada de deberes. Simplemente, les propondré a continuación una actividad para fomentar el buen tiempo en familia en casa que, por supuesto, es voluntaria. 

Muchísimas gracias por vuestra colaboración una vez más.

Un abrazo

Ángel

Good morning, everybody!

How are you today? Do you know that today is the last day of the second term? This means that today you start the Easter holidays!!!

During the holidays, you don´t have any homework. This time is for you to relax, rest and spend time with your family. 

Today, I want to suggest an activity to foster good and funny moments with your family. Let´s start!

WISHING JAR

1. Find a big empty jar in the kitchen. 

2. Decorate it as you want. Here you have some examples. 

3. Cut small papers where your family and you will write your wishes for these days and put them next to the jar.

4. Explain how the Wishing Jar works to your family. 

How does it work?

• Everyone in the family can put pieces of paper inside suggesting an activity that you can do all together at home. (You can write as many activities as you want)
• Mark in a calendar the next day and time when you will open the Whishing Jar.
• At that moment, all the members of the family gather in the living room, open the Wishing Jar and take one of the papers. The activity shown in the paper will be the activity you enjoy together!

Enjoy your holidays and take care! :)
