Happy summer

The end of the course is already here, but in this case it is a very special moment for us because we finish the secondary school.
During these four years, we have enjoyed, we have studied hard too and the most important thing: we have learnt a lot! I know I will not forget my teachers.
This summer, I will travel around my country, I will read a lot of books, I will be with my family and I will rest to be a really good student in Bachillerato.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Favourite assignments while learning English

We have done many interesting activities during the secondary school, but my favourite ones were:
- 'An ideal journey'.
Our teacher wanted us to imagine that she had won "El Gordo" lottery and she would invite us to travel and visit the place where the Brontes sisters had lived in England.
She would take us on this wonderful trip if we were able to organise everything and just tell her the exact planification for the journey (people in the group, date of the trip, flights/bus/train to Haworth, hotels, food, visits, Parsonage Museum tickets, total budget of the trip, and of course many pictures showing the places).
We did this assignment last year. This was our final product:



- 'MasterChef'.
We had to write and learn by heart the main ingredients used in making cakes recipes and the best way to explain it in English while recording a video.
We did this three months ago. I liked it because it was a funny and original way to practise English.
Thanks to this project, I learnt a lot of words used in cooking.

















- 'News worldwide'.
I also liked a video called News worldwide. It was created by Mario, Noelia and me.
We drew and painted the aliens, we researched on the Internet to find some interesting news and we wrote the screenplay.
We worked hard, but enjoyed at the same time!
