Canada Cultural Week

During the following week, our students and teachers are going to do some activities related to our language assistant’s country, Canada. We are glad to know he will work with us next course and we will have more opportunities to know this surprising country.

We hope everybody will enjoy these activities.

Why should we visit Canada?

Canada is a wonderful country. After a few sessions of preparation and a bit of rehearsal, 3º ESO A students were able to manage to highlight the most important features of this country. Eventually, they made a video to encourage all of us to visit it.

We want to thank Nick Mosley, who is the Canadian language assistant at school this course, for helping us.

23rd April :World Books Day

On 26th April , we went to the theatre to see “The last crazy adventure”

Even though, we enjoy reading all the year round, we love celebrating this event preparing some activities for the World Books Day. Some of our ESO and Sixth Form students have prepared Book trailers using the Flipgrid app, other students have written and presented one chapter of their fictional biographies (designing their own covers) , others have done dramatised reading in class. and finally, we saw a theatre play at Maestro Padilla Auditorium.

Obviously, this is just one day and we want to keep on having fun with books every single moment so you will be informed of more activities through the course soon. Now, you can enjoy with some examples of 1 ESO B (book trailers : Juan Padilla, Ana del Águila del Campo, and Nazaret Díaz López ) and 3º ESO A (dramatised reading):

3 ESO A students were encouraged to carry out a piece of dramatised reading in class to bear in mind how important books are in our life. Although it is not as easy as we may think, they tried hard and discovered that reading aloud might be something interesting to enjoy.

21st March: International Day of Poetry

Last Monday 21st March,students from 1°ESO A carried out a poetry workshop to celebrate the International Day of Poetry. Eveyone could write his or her poem in an easy and creative way, just following some sort of ‘ poem recipes’! The results can be read in the High School corridor,  next to the group’s classroom.
‘Poetry,the extraordinary perception of the ordinary ‘.

Presentations about Canada (1º ESO C)

Students in this group have spoken in class about different aspects of life in Canada : food,sport,etc. Their presentations have illustrated their talks and they have enjoyed as much as learnt about Nick’s (our language assistant) birthplace .

Recycling is …cool

3 ° ESO A STUDENTS WERE REQUESTED TO PRODUCE A SERIES OF POSTERS SHOWING HOW IMPORTANT RECYCLING IS IN OUR DAILY LIFE.
They also wanted to make our school community aware at all times that by protecting
our environment,we save our planet and our lives.
By doing this task they have FELT HAPPY AND have always been  ENCOURAGED  FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

Nature Journaling

Our last activity collaborating with Aldea project was a Nature Journaling workshop with 1 ESO students. The main purpose of this project was to enjoy observing nature and use a diary to illustrate with words and images all their observations. These students are going to create a Nature Journal in English after visiting the Botanical Garden in Rodalquilar.
