FEBRUARY LETTER

Hello Comenius friends,

How are you all? Having a good time?

We've already audio recorded the words, phrases and dialogues. We loved doing this work because the recordings are with our own voices. The video recording will be done by the 9th grade. This class is also working in the project as a club. They’ve seen the texts that our class wrote and will perform them.
It's very funny.

At the end of the first term in our school we had a Christmas party. We had to decorate our Christmas tables and brought food to eat together. Our Christmas table was one of the most beautiful in the school.

The first week after vacation was a little hard to wake up early but then we started to get used to school schedules. A student in our class represented us in Finland and when he came back to school, we asked him many questions. Edgar told us many interesting things and he said he was in the sauna and then went in boxers (underwear) running in the snow.

Now in Project Work we are reading «the Bronze Boy» written by Sophia de Mello Breyner an important Portuguese writer.

Our class is also working in a project which is a surprise for Carnival.
Last news, our school bar has put the prices down. Now everything is cheaper.

Did they drop the prices of anything in your school?
Do you also celebrate Carnival in your school?

Kisses from the Portuguese students and we are looking forward to receiving your letters
