During the school year 2018-19 we celebrate the 10th edition of our English Day.
To remember all these years we've dived into the blog (which is, by the way, 11 this year...) and we've arranged the labels for you to have easy access to the posts of every year.
Here's a list of the topic and main song of every edition, along with the songs the kids learned every year and the main activities we did.

School Year 2009-2010 ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES - Dance: Do Re Mi
This was the first English Day we had. The idea was to study an English Speaking Country at each level. They did several activities to get to know the country and also learned a song related to the country.

Year 1 USA - Yankee Doodle
Year 2 Canada - If You're Happy and you Know it
Year 3 Ireland - Molly Malone
Year 4 Australia - Waltzing Matilda
Year 5 South Africa - Wimoweh
Year 6 Jamaica - Banana Boat Song
Dance: Do Re Mi
As a closing activity we had Joan Baró, a singer playing Irish and English traditional songs for us. And in the afternoon we all danced together to Do Re Mi, the famous song from the film The Sound of Music.
