SCHOOL YEAR 2007-2008

Learning about Life

The students learn about nature and life.

Cherno stands proudly by his art project: a collage depicting the countryside. The tree trunk is made of macaroni; the clouds are made of cotton balls; the sky is made of shavings from a blue crayon; and paper is used for the water and the tree-top.

The children learn about how a plant grows up. Sergio is the plant; Eva Merino, Isabel, and Adriana are the things that he needs to grow.

Eva Merino is pregnant...with Luisiana!

And Luisiana gives birth to Angel, a lovely baby boy.
