BUS TURÍSTIC- HISTORICAL VALENCIA II



There has been a little drawback, the sound quality was a bit poor.

But for the rest, I think the trip was OK.

You have discovered new things of our own capital city,




mainly, after answering the 14 questions in the QUIZZ  I prepared for you 




( which, by the way, nobody could solve. You SCATTERBRAINS!!!!!)

My final evaluation of the activity is POSITIVE. I won't waste any words mentioning the "misunderstanding".
I hope that from now on you'll walk around Valencia with "different eyes".



BUS TURÍSTIC- HISTORICAL VALENCIA

Today is a fantastic spring day in the city of Valencia,

and finally!!!!!! we have had the chance of doing the tour. Off we go!





Liked it or not??? 


BEAUTY IS A BEAST

I have decided, that this term we're going to do a mixture of activities. We have a lot of time for everything. 

We started with the one-act play "Beauty is a Beast", a funny story that you read so "exquisitely". The only problem we had was the stage, as we performed it in the open air. Anyway, I will always remember Alvaro (sorry, darling) in the part of Jill.
Here are some pictures of you, sitting quietly??? under the leafy trees of our school garden.













MOVIES-2nd TERM

The Second term was dedicated to THE CINEMA and the films we chose were:   






Three different styles: genres, accents, topics.




 
I must beg you pardon, but I had completely forgotten about this task,  that is, I would have liked to update the blog before.


 Maite and Aisha told us which the symbols of Christmas are and why these items have become a synonym of this so celebrated festivity around the world.

We learned the meaning of them and the origins of this celebration.



Finally, Laura and Sergio prepared a class full of music and good rythms . They brought songs of Beyoncé, Shakira, ... and told us about their extraordinary musical careers.





I don't know what your opinion was, but I enjoyed the lessons very much and realized how good you are, students!

Free Friday Lessons- First Term

Well, I should have done this a bit before, but you know what holidays mean.

I would like to enclose all the material you prepared for the Friday lessons last term.


Blai and Sergio's was the first. HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, a really funny and crazy TV series. We enjoyed the chapter they chose, didn't we?

Giorgio and Alvaro gave a speech on the best known sport FOOTBALL. They talked and brought pictures of the best stadiums all over the world, the best players, ... and (unavoidably) OFF the record "conversations".


 

Then we had the chance to know more details about Halloween thanks to MaryJo and Ceasar, it was a pity that we couldn't see the chapter of the Simpsons they had selected for us. This terrible technology!

Tania and Angel gave us exact information about the creator of the so successful and satiric animated series The Simpsons (you love this family!!!). They reported data about the number of chapters, the ratings, the awards, etc, and OF COURSE we could also watch them in action.



Maria and Sonia made a power point about Harry Potter. They prepared an accurate speech with not only the details of the books, but also of the movies, actors, etc.



Lidia and Joana presented us an animated series which is also very famous among teenagers The Clevelan Show. We amused ourselves listening to their speech and watching the chapter.


 
 And .... it's enough for today. I'll continue on with Aisha, Maite, Laura and Sergio.
