Year 2-3 ´s Spanish trip to the local market in Marbella.

Year 2-3 ´s Spanish trip to the local market in Marbella.

     On a bright sunny Friday morning Year 2-3 Miss.Moriarty´s class went to the local market of Marbella. This was part of our class topic My Town. In class we had been looking into all the different establishments and buildings which surround us. On the way to the market we stopped to see the vet, the post office, different types of shops, the chemist, etc. It was a practical way of putting into practice what we had studied in class.

Once in the market we looked at all the different stalls and talked to the market sellers who were very friendly and helpful. Each group had a shopping list of healthy local products as well as fruit and vegetables to buy. We used our Spanish knowledge to ask for the market products and had an interesting chat with most of the shopkeepers, needless to say, in Spanish. After all the walking and shopping we were exhausted. We had a picnic with our purchases and thoroughly enjoyed the little healthy feast. The children enjoyed every minute of the market expedition. It was a colourful and practical way of ending the topic My Town.
