Protecting the Environment

Hi everyone,

As I told you last week, our 4^th grade students have prepared some leaflets about how we can help to protect the environment.  So, this week they presented them in front of 3^rd primary students. Our students explained 3^rd grade students, 20 different ways to preserve environment in Spanish and also in English. They were quite nervous but, they did it really well.

Here you have some pictures of the presentation,

Happy Easter!

Talking about communities

Hi there,

This week 2º ESO Students are starting the unit about communities. In this unit they are going to talk about getting on with neighbours.I found this interesting website which contains a lesson plan Love thy neighbour which I find quite useful.

First of all, it has some role plays examples – problems people experience with neighbours. Then, there are some real complaints people send about their neighbours and ss have to reply to them giving them advice how to deal with problematic neighbours.

It aims at revising different linkers of purpose (although, though, even though,  in spite of the fact etc.)  and contrast. It is an online exercise that is directly corrected.

Before the exercises there is a short explanation.

Challenges

Hi there,

This week third graders worked on challenges. After reading the popular story ‘The North Wind and the Sun’ students worked in pairs. They asked and answered about their abilities (are you good at (climbing trees)? This activity is quite useful to pratise the oral skill. It can be followed by another writing activity describing one’s challenges. Children love to talk about it.
