Memories of Paqui Bean in the CRAM |
This morning, The Beans have reviewed some English grammar. It has been
a day to improve grammar and consolidate knowledge.
They have talked about the Future Simple, Adverbs of Manner, Superlative and Comparative and Social English.
They have also read a bit more about Christmas Carol of Charles Dickens.

Taking care of the nature is a very important thing and the family has
been talking about animals and their protection. Paqui Bean has talked about
two important centres: the CRAM in El Prat de Llobregat and the CRARC in
Masquefa. Both of them are near Barcelona, and both of them work strongly to
save animals. She has also talked about the Zeehondencentrum in Pieterburen.
Then, the family has listened carefully Ana Bean's speech about Maria Callas, her lovely friend. They have discovered a lot of secrets about her and her difficult and successful life and about the connection between Ana and Maria. It has been a very important moment for The Grandma who has appreciated a lot Ana's effort and work.
Óscar Bean and Temperance Brenan's Team |
After talking about Asperger Syndrome, The Beans have visited Temperance Brennan and her scientific team in the Jeffersonian Institution and they have asked her some questions about the skeleton that was found by Óscar Bean in the Georgetown University Campus yesterday.
Dr Brennan has answered all the
questions of the family and has been very interested in answering Anton Bean's
questions about the Piltdown Man while The Grandma, fascinated by the
laboratory and imitating Salvador Dalí, has lost her head and her idea of time
and has started to live in a parallel universe until The Beans have waken her
up.
This afternoon, the family has visited the
Natural History Museum founded in 1846 as part of the Smithsonian Institution. It is a natural-history museum
administered by the Smithsonian Institution, located on the National Mall in
Washington, D.C. It has free admission and is open 364 days a
year.
Tempus Fugit for The Grandma |
Opened in 1910, the museum on the National Mall was one of the first
Smithsonian buildings constructed exclusively to hold the national collections
and research facilities.
The main building has an overall area of 140,000 m2 with 30,200 m2 of exhibition and houses over 1,000 employees. The museum's collections contain over 126 million specimens of plants, animals, fossils, minerals, rocks, meteorites, human remains, and human cultural artefacts. In 2016 it was the second most visited of all of the Smithsonian museums. It is also home to about 185 professional natural-history scientists, the largest group of scientists dedicated to the study of natural and cultural history in the world.
