After the Easter break we are going to work on literature and more specifically on the English novel we read in class, The secret garden, so during your holiday it would be a good idea to listen to the book again by clicking on this link.

I'm now sending you an Easter word search activity.

Your task for these two weeks is to:

 send me an email and tell me how you have spent this special last month, as well as your impressions and thoughts on the material I sent you, as well as your ideas for future projects.

Time so say goodbye with a beautiful song.

HAPPY EASTER TO ALL OF YOU!!
