English Video Round-Up Week 28/11/16

Hello friends! Here are my English video picks for this week. I hope you enjoy!

This week in 5th Grade Social Science we are learning about the constitution, perfect timing with Día de la Constitución coming up on December 6th (in America ours is September 18th)! For this, I shared a video from my childhood. This is a fun song talking a bit about the constitution and sharing the beginning of our constitution in song form:


In 3rd Grade Natural Science we are learning to classify living things! Here is a fun video discussing the difference between living and non-living things:


In 2nd grade we are talking about natural and man-made landscapes. Here is a video I used to engage students in learning about natural landscapes and their vocabulary:


And finally, here is a song that my infantile classes have loved about Christmas! It combines Christmas vocabulary with English words they are already familiar with: the colors! :

Introducing: English Video Round-Up!

The umbrellas and jackets I am seeing around school are telling me that it is finally Autumn here in Sevilla! We are well into the school year now and I have loved getting to know the classes I am teaching.

I am working with a wide variety of subjects including Natural Science, Social Science, Infantil English,  and Physical Education! These topics are very different and each age group has a unique focus, however for most of these classes I have found a good amount of useful videos to help make learning English fun! I have decided that once a week, I will share my favorite English videos that I have used in lessons for that week in an "English Video Round-Up," so that teachers, students, and parents can see what we are learning, access the videos, and have fun practicing English outside of class! Here are the videos I have chosen to share this week:

Fruits and Vegetables Vocabulary (done with 1st grade):


Geography Vocabulary (done with 1st grade):





Balanced diet video discussing the importance of eating healthy food! (done with 3rd grade):




Moon Song (done with 2nd grade):



Tour the United States Song (done with 5th grade):




And finally an *EXTRA* video because this week is Thanksgiving in America! Enjoy!
