The project meeting in Portugal 6.-10.5.2015


Dear Comenius friends!




It is soon time for our last visit, the last project meeting. It will be held in a sunny and lovely Cascais, hosted by our Portuguese friend school.

We are all very excited to visit Portugal and meet our friends again!

It will be the last visit for this co-operation, but I hope it won't be end to a long lasting friendship. "Friends forever" -  as our common project song is called!

Yours,
Laura from Rusko

Twee emmertjes water halen Twee emmertjes pompen

De meisjes op de klompen

De jongens op de houten been

Rijd maar door mijn straatje heen

Van je ras ras ras

Rijdt de koning door de plas

Van je voort voort voort

Rijdt de koning door de poort

Van je erk erk erk

Rijdt de koning naar de kerk

Van je één, twee, drie!

How to dance baile de la carrasquilla

The dance of the Carrasquilla (Castile) Spain

Video of the dancing


Lyrics

Este baile de la carrasquilla; 
es un baile muy disimulado, ' 
que en poniendo la rodilla en tierra 
todo el mundo se queda parado. 

A la vuelta, la vuelta Madrid, 
que este baile no se baila así; 
que se baila de espaldas, de espaldas, 
pues menea, menea esa falda. 

Pues menea, menea esos pies 
y a la vuelta se da un puntapié. 
En mi pueblo no se estila eso, 
que se estila un abrazo y un beso.
