* CHESHIRE CAT EFL *

Today, in the class of 2C English, we have read a short version of Othello , one of the most famous plays written by William Shakespeare. After reading it, we have made four groups of seven members and started practising the dialogues of the play. 

In some parts of Wales, people celebrate the New Year on the 13th January. People celebrate by preparing special foods and drinks. Some people travel from house to house with the Mary Lwyd to welcome the coming year.  Children go from door to door and sing to receive the calennig (a present). They carry apple charms called a perllan.  This week we have celebrated Hen Galan in our classroom. We learned four lines from a Welsh song and did our own parade with a Mary Lwyd puppet.                             

A full English breakfast is a big meal that people in the United Kingdom eat in the morning. It has eggs, bacon, sausages, toast and black pudding. Sometimes, there are also baked beans, tomatoes, and mushrooms. People often drink tea with it.  CLASSROOM DISPLAY

Haggis is a traditional Scottish savoury pudding, like a large sausage, made from diced sheep’s liver, lungs and heart, oatmeal, onion, suet and seasoning.  CLASSROOM DISPLAY

 The following page of our notebook is dedicated to a London landmark. 

London is the capital of England and the United Kingdom. It is a cosmopolitan city full of interesting places to visit. To start getting familiar with London, we have drawn a basic map of the centre of the city. 

 To summarise some of the things we learned about the UK during the last term, we have added a list of facts to the section of the notebook dedicated to Currency and Flags. 

  We have two notebooks. One of them is the one dedicated to the culture, customs and lifestyle in the UK and Ireland . This notebook is growing day by day as we add new information.  This time, we have added a short text explaining the difference between the UK and Great Britain . We have also included the seas and oceans surrounding them.
