BORA WIND from Slovenia

We learned a song about BURJA (BORA in English). It is a cold, north wind, blowing on the coastal side of our country. You can learn more about it HERE.

We went for a visit to the principal of our school, Mrs. Lidija Žigon and she was pleased to listen to us. But ofcourse :)

October activities in Spain




We have been planting seeds in our school kitchen garden. We already have some small cabbage plants.



There are still hazelnuts but some of them have a surprise inside, Can you see the hole?











Some of us live in other villages and come to school by bus but the ones who live near the school like cycling when the weather is nice.







Spanish snails


We are preparing drawings for a contest organized by the local authorities. It is about mushrooms because normally at this time people go to the countryside to pick them and cook and eat them, yummy!!! Unfortunately this year we haven´t got any yet. Today (October 19th) it´s raining so let´s hope they start growing soon!!

October weather activities in Slovenia

Today we spent an exciting time in our school playground. First we connected with the sky and the wind and described what feelings the air around us was filling us with.

Then we observed the wind - its' strenght and direction. We realised it was quite strong - our hair moved quite vividly, as well as the branches of all the trees and tops of pines.


Then we checked the temperature. We had to be careful to keep the termometers in a shadow.

We looked for flowers and found daisies.


Then we went on an animal hunt :)





We heard birds but saw none. In the ground we found firebugs, ants and earwigs.

We observed our clothes and disscussed our activities. When returning to our classroom we worked on making a report. It was fun!! And it is just the beginning ....
