1º Bach. B and C groups. English tasks (16th-27th March)

As we said last Friday, these are the main activities to be done during the days without attendance to high school.

1. Check grammar and vocabulary from units 1 to 5 ( finish those workbook activities in unit 5 we haven’t done so far: pages 40,41,42,44).

2. Write compositions with the same topics of the five types of text we have practised (pages 97-101 workbook) and compare them with the reference text in those pages and then, try to improve your own version. It’s an optional activity for those who want to get better writing texts. When we come back you can show me those texts you have written.

3. We are going to read Notting Hill (Penguin Readers) in the third term so if you have the chance of reading it online or you have that book, you can advance work in these days when reading is essential.

During these days, we will also suggest some websites where you can keep on practising your English.  The first one is …

https://learnenglishteens.britishcouncil.org/

And if you want to check what we have learnt recently (Future Forms) you can listen to this short story, revise grammar and do some online activities in this website:

Keep in touch!

Hi, everybody! We are going to use this blog to share material during the days we can’t attend school. If you can tell all your classmates ( through whatsupp messages, email,etc), it will be easier to get in touch with all of them.

Thank you for your help!

 

¡Hola a todos/as! Vamos a utilizar este blog para compartir material durante los días que no podamos asistir al centro. Sí puedes decírselo a tus compañeros/as (a través de mensajes de whatsupp, correo,etc), será más fácil ponernos en contacto.

Gracias por vuestra ayuda.

25th November: International Day against Gender Violence


During all this week, our students will participate in some activities, organized by the Coeducation Department , which focus on one of the most terrible violations against human rights : violence against women.  It is a worldwide problem which we must fight to eliminate as soon as possible and to become aware of this cruel situation, we have prepared for our students in the classes of English some files with information and stories which exemplify this matter. We will also watch some videos made by the United Nations which will also motivate students to talk and discuss about this subject, trying to find possible solutions.

Here , you can have a look at those files we are going to work with and some of the videos we are going to watch. We will finish these activities listening to a song by Sara Bareilles which tells us the story of a girl in this situation.

Recent activities: Halloween and “Only human”

                                                                                                                       Julia Raash

As you all know,  we celebrated Halloween in our secondary school last 30th November. We had a Ghost Walk where our 1 ESO students listened to Lupita’s story in “The corpse bride”, then they participated in a cultural quiz about the origin and customs in Halloween and finally we had a spooky breakfast.

We also went to the theatre to see “Only human” a comedy which criticizes the use and abuse of technology in our world. They had fun watching the actors and some of the students who also performed in that hilarious play.

End of term activity : Ancient Greece and Rome

The end of the term has come and we have just celebrated it with an Ancient Culture Party. Our 1 ESO students have had two days to find out the features of Ancient Greece and Rome participating in different activities . We started sharing some information on our big board which was very useful for the cultural contest which was won by 1 ESO B team.

On Thursday, students learn how to make the Greek and Roman costumes and ornaments  they were going to wear on Friday. On Friday morning, students watched “Percy Jackson : Sea of Monsters” and after the film they played Seikilos Epitaph.

 

Ancient Greece and Rome 2019

We will finish our bilingual course with different activities to know Greek and Roman culture in ancient times. On 21st June, we will watch a film about Mythology and Teenagers  (Percy Jackson), a costume and ornaments workshop,  a classic parade,a cultural contest and olympic games.  If you want to start , let’s watch some videos.

We will work with all these topics in class and we will discover the amazing history of these ancient civilizations.

Erasmus Programme (May 2019)

We have just received the visit of 15 students and their teachers from Latvia, Slovakia and Poland who have participated with 15 students from our school  in an interchange programme called Erasmus . During two years, these students have had the chance to know different places, cultures and people in Europe  in  a project which uses the learning of Maths through Sports.

The activities in Spain were focused on Disability and Sports (Gymkhana, Sitting Volleyball, Students´ Exhitions and Presentations,etc.) . The foreign students have been hosted by Spanish families and they have visited our city, Granada and our Natural Park.  We are really glad to have been participants in this European programme and we hope we will share an experience like this soon.

 

Pick English up with films

Remember, one of the best ways to enjoy  learning a new language is watching films. Why don´t you start watching one of your favourite films again, but …in English?. Harry Potter, The Beauty and the Beast, Avengers, Matilda, The Lord of the Rings,etc.

Let´s try!
