Enclaustrados como estamos por esta pandemia, que no acaba de marcharse, nos pareció buena idea salir al patio y abandonar nuestro propio laberinto y allí, bañados por el tibio sol de febrero, resolver enigmas y trabajar en equipo.

ENGLISH: Many of us may feel claustrophobic as a side effect of this pandemic. Hence, it seemed like a good idea to go out to the playground for a different lesson so our students sunbathed in the warm February sun at the same time they solved puzzles and work as a team.
