Rollos de canela /Cinammon rolls

Ingredientes:
850 g aprox. de harina de fuerz
5 g de levadura instantánea
375 ml de leche entera
100 g de azúcar
100 g de mantequilla
2 huevos
1 cucharadita de sal

Para el relleno:
50 g de mantequilla
50 g de azúcar
1 cucharada de canela

Para el glaseado:
200 g de azúcar glass
6 gotas de zumo de naranja o limón
4-6 cucharadas de leche entera

1. Mezclamos la harina con la levadura.
2. Por otro lado mezclamos la leche, la mantequilla, el azúcar y la sal. Lo calentamos para que se derrita la mantequilla y posteriormente añadimos los huevos, y mezclamos con energía.
3. Añadimos esta mezcla a la harina y amasamos. El resultado de la masa debe ser suave, que no se pegue a las manos. Si es necesario añadir un poco de harina o un poco de líquido lo haremos. Dependiendo si está pegajosa o bien está muy seca. Amasaremos a mano unos 10 minutos o 5 minutos en maquina.
4. Dejaremos que la masa fermente hasta el doble de su tamaño inicial. La amasamos para desgasificar y volvemos a dejar.
5. Estiramos la masa con un rodillo sobre la mesa enharinada. Hacemos con una forma alargada y estrecha a lo ancho. La pintamos con mantequilla derretida y espolvoreamos por encima una mezcla de azúcar con canela. Enrollamos y cortamos trozos de unos 2 cm.
6. Los colocamos en un molde de bizcochos o similar previamente engrasado con mantequilla. Los dejaremos un poco separados para que cuando fermenten de nuevo se junten. Horneamos a 200 ºC durante unos 20 o 25 minutos, hasta que estén dorados.

7. Los sacamos, y todavía en caliente echaremos por encima el glaseado. La mezcla de azúcar, zumo y leche debe dejar una mezcla espesa. Dejamos enfriar y servimos.

Saint Valentine Nespression/ Nespresso de San Valentin

Next Monday is Saint Valentine´s Day and we are going to celebrate it creating a simple art craft in class.

Material:
1 capsule of Nespresso.
Thread
Plasticine
Glue
1 hole punch (punzón)

Every student will have a Nespresso capsule on their desk. With the help of a hole punch they will make a small hole on top of it.
Then, we will make a small heart out of plasticine and we will stick it on the Nespresso Capsule.
We will get a piece of thread and we will put it into the Nespresso hole. Finally, the teacher will make the knot (nudo) if the children don´t know how to do it.

Ted the milkman and John the baker Game

In this game, we introduce two typical English jobs (you can play it with three, four, depending on how many groups you want to form in the class). I chose the baker and  the milkman professions.

I have created a game where John and Ted (you can call them however you want) have to go house by house delivering bread and milk.

How to arrange the game:

The class is set into 2 groups; The teacher asks a question to one member of each group; if the answer they give is correct, their character, either the milkman or the baker, moves one house forward. The first team to win is the one who gets first to the last house

Materials:

Pictures from typical and varied English houses can be displayed on the blackboard or interactive whiteboard with a bit of "bluetack" (sometimes plasticine is also useful if you haven´t got the first one). The houses are displayed in a line and Ted and John are displayed one up the line and other down the line so students can see who is winning.
