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 …

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:

WOMEN IN CLASSICAL MUSIC

4º ESO students have made this work to commemorate the International Women’s Day. Women play an important role in Classical Music, but they have been frequently ignored. Our objective  is to make them highly visible.

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.

SOUND EXPERIMENTS I

Students of  1º ESO C did different experiments demonstrating that sound is a vibration. In this picture, we can see string phones and mouth organs. These ones are made with sticks and elastic bands that vibrate when you blow.

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.
