Real LAVA?

We had a wonderful lesson yesterday thanks to Cap Hensley! We have recently been learning about mountains and volcanos with my students of the 5th form. And we had a chance to see and to touch OBSIDIAN – one of the glassy products of volcanic activity, formed by the rapid cooling of silica-rich lava. When Cap Hensley brought it to the classroom, the kids shouted: “It is LAVA!” Great hands-on experience)))

Thanksgiving – 2020. Give thanks? YES!

This holiday has been my favourite for many years. I love celebrating it with my family at home and with students at school. Mayflower story, the Pilgrims, Native Americans, turkey, corn, pumpkin – the picture stand out in my head every time November approaches. This year was not an exception. Of course we had a party, we watched First Thanksgiving Story, ate homemade treats and made crafts. This year we made head pieces with feathers, and children chose ‘Indian’ names for themselves. And we gave thanks. To God. For food. For friends, For homes, For families. Happy Thanksgiving to all!
