In my house we are playing together, cooking, we also see TV. I play the Ps4 and I also help my family with house works. I go to the street for a 30min walk. And I also play with my sisters.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! My little brother has a ps4 too; he uses it to play World of Warcraft with his friends.

ReplyDeleteI play a little on my mobile, then I connect to my trampoline class, eating, and I take a shower and go out to applaud 8:00, sing a song and have dinner. I go to my mother's bed and tomorrow will be another day.
You take a trampoline class online?! You must be very energetic!

Hi Aisha!
ReplyDeleteI'm IVM. During quarantine, I stay home with my family. I also do homework, study, do drawings with my sister, do exercise with my basketball couch in direct. Later, I'm going to clap with my family on the terrace. I like clapping because some neightbours play music and I dance with my sister.
Don't worry, you will be with your family very soon. I think the most important thing now is do the recomendations, so the virus can go and everything can come back to normality.
I hope to see you soon.
A hug,
IVM
I agree; we should continue to follow the best practices for good health. My flat doesn't have a terrace so I clap out of the window.

in my house all we are doing something: me do the homework and play Fortnite, then my father play fortnite with me, my mother with the mobile and my sister playing with the dolls
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you all really love to play games. :-)

Hi Aisha, im JGA of 6 grade. I stay almost all the day in home. I spend all the time doing homework, going to walk and play the mobile or the ps4. I heard at the hour of the claps a song that I THINK is called ´resistire´ or something like that. I do all the homewoprk in the morning and in the afternoon i play and go to walk. In my opinion, Spain made the ´medidas?´ late but i keep my only grandparent far of the virus. hes not going to go to the street in 1 year or something like that
ReplyDeleteJ.G.A
I had to google translate the word medidas. It means 'measurement'. In English we'd say Spain "took measures against the quarantine" late. An easier way to say this is Spain "made the quarantine order" late. It's a good idea for your grandfather to stay in until we're free of the virus. My grandmother is staying in her home as well.

ReplyDeleteNow, on the quarantaine, I stay at my home and I only left my house to go to the sreet 1 hour. I also play videogames and I read books. Also I do my homework and I study to the exams.
I only leave the house to go food shopping, but in a few days I will start taking walks.
Delete-- Aisha
In quarantine I do a lot of exercise to keep me fit. I study and also do homework. Sometimes I read some books or draw a picture.
ReplyDeleteD.S.D
These are all good ways to spend your time. It's especially important to stay active, so doing exercise is excellent.

ReplyDeleteOn the quarantine, in the morning I do my homework, then I play Fortnite, I make a Harry Potter´s puzzle with 1000 pieces that I received from England, and I read a book. Finally, on the night I have with my mother a session of Netflix and Chill.
I love puzzles! The bigger, the better. Good luck with yours; I hope you finish it soon.

ReplyDeleteHello, in the morning I study and do the homework and in the evening I play with my family 👪👪
It's good you're keeping a schedule! Schedules are good for our health.
Delete-- Aisha
Hello Aisha, I'm S. I have been doing my homework, cooking and reading some books. I think that you're right, we have to stay at home and think that we will have a normal life soon. Now I can go out for a walk with my dog, but I prefer stay at home another week.
ReplyDeleteSee you soon, S.G.G.
I think this is a good plan! We have to do everything we can to keep everyone safe.
DeleteCooking is so much fun when there's people to cook with.

Hello Aisha are you fine? You know that your voice had change now?The quarentine change our voives is strange.In my free time I play fortnite or brawl stars.
ReplyDeleteHaha I call this my "business voice". When recording audios or making important phone calls; it is very important to speak slowly and clearly so everyone understands because we can only hear the words that are spoken. My "conversation voice", or how I regularly speak, is still the same.
Delete-- Aisha
Hello Aisha! How are you? Im good and what i do in the quarantine is play,read,and get bored, but i can go to walk outsite 1 hour! Im so happy jeje:) i hope you are good.
ReplyDeleteBTP
I'm doing well. I'm excited to start taking walks soon too! Enjoy the fresh air.

Hi Alisha
ReplyDeleteHow are you?? Me im good, all the days I go running 1 hour with my mum almost all thf time I still doing my homework and at 8 o clock I go out because of the sanitaries.
CSD
I'm not sure what you mean when you say sanitaries, but I think you're talking about the essential workers or the healthcare workers. So you're saying that at 8:00 you go outside to clap for the essential workers? That's very good because they need our support.

ReplyDeleteHello Aisha, in the mornings I do my homework and in the afternoon I go out one hour and play with my friends in the PS4. Is this your first quarentine?
Yes, this is the first time I've been under quarantine. Usually pandemics are in a few countries only. The last global pandemic that was bad like the coronavirus pandemic is the H1N1 flu pandemic of 1918. But don't worry, in the past pandemics had ended and this one will too.

A. E Hi Aisha,I hope you are well. The time in quarantine passes very slowly. In the morning I do my homework, I collaborate in the educational activities of my teacher's blog, I play chess with my father, I read some books and I go out for 1 hour with my mum for a walk.
ReplyDeleteFor me, time passes by quicker the older I get. I used to play chess for hours with my father. It's an excellent game for critical thinking.

Hi Aisha! I´m good thanks. In the mornings I´m doing a lot of homework, but in the afternons my neightbours go to theirs balconies and then I play the guitar and I play the happy birthday when there is a birthday, but I know to play another songs: the guardians of the galaxy, a little bit of Harry Potter, Star wars, the Simpsons, another little of the Avengers and more. How are you? Good no?
ReplyDeleteS.C.C
I'm doing good! I think it's great that you're learning to play the guitar. Playing an instrument is a very good skill to have. That's very nice of you to play for your neighbors.

Hi! Don't worry, I am fine. We won't be under quarantine forever. Summer - my favorite season - will be here soon and I am very happy about this.

Hey all! One thing that's different from Spanish is that in English we say "during the quarantine". Also, before you publish a blog post, make sure to check your work. Re-read it and fix any spelling and grammar mistakes. It's a lot of fun reading everyone's comments. Stay safe!
