Hello!

This week we´ve got a lot of news!

Firstly, we finally could get in contact with other students from Greece, and next Monday we´re eventually going to have a skype session! So, prepare your questions and some short presentation about yourselves, find something interesting to tell!

Secondly, we´re organising a blog competition "My Week with the Dragon". You´ll have to post your stories about your week with the Dragon here in the blog. Write a story, post photos and put any interesting links in the Internet. The rest of the class has to vote for the story in the comments of the blog below, you can give your points from 1 to 10 for the story you like. The story that gets the most points in the end of the trimestre - wins a surprise!

(I´ve put two stories in the blog - Silvia´s and Pablo´s week with the Dragon. They left me their pdfs with photos, I just helped to post them here. The rest you have to do yourselves!)

All right, so lots of plans! Today we´ve revised the vocabulary from our new topic - school subjects and what we study:

We also watched a short video about a school day in Britain and we found out a lot of interesting things about a Lollipop Lady, school subjects, school day, canteen etc.

Here´s a link for the video in case you´d like to watch it again:
This is Britain - School Video

We also learnt some verbs to express what we like and dislike:

Class 5. Monday 20/10

Hello, boys and girls. How´re you?

Today we´ve listened to your projects about your favourite sports and hobbies. The only student who did it right was Pablo. Those who wrote it in the notebook, for the next class, please, write it on a separate piece of paper, draw a picture or get your photo on it.
Also there´re two students who didn´t prepare the project, you have one more chance next class.
The same with extra task in the blog, you still have a chance to write about an unusual sport or hobby and get extra points.

So, in our Olympic Games for the projects you get the following points:
Player 2 - 12 points
Player 3 - 10 points
Player 4 - 10 points
The rest, you have the chance to get points next class.

We watched a short video about popular sports in Britain.
What sports are popular in Britain? What unusual sports do British play?
Here´s a link for this video: Sports in Britain. Watch it again and compare with Spain.

We finished with our topic and started a new one:
"What do you study?"
Where can you study? - At primary school, at secondary school, at the library, at the University etc.

We learnt different subjects you can study at school:
Maths, Science, Foreign Language, English, History, Physics, Chemistry, Art, Music, P.E. etc.

What´s you favourite subject at school? Why do you like it?

We have a lot of plans for this trimestre and you have to start thinking about preparing some things:

1. Next class 27th we have a Halloween class. But it´s an unusual class - Flipped Class. It means that you will teach younger children different activities in English. We dedicate this class to our favourite holiday - Halloween! Your task is to prepare an activity you´ll teach other children in English, related to Halloween topic.

2. Also next week or after the next one we´re going to have a Skype Session with other children from Greece. Your task is to prepare the introduction of yourselves and also questions you´ll ask. Here´re some questions that will help you to talk about yourselves:
What´s your name? How old are you? Where do you live? What´s your favourite colour, animal, subject, sport etc? How large is your famiy? Have you got brothers or sisters? Have you got pets? etc.
I´ll inform here in the blog when this Skype Session is exactly. I don´t know yet myself.

3. At the end of the trimestre we´re planning to organise a kind of "cuenta cuentos" in English, called "Toy Story". The main hero will be our DRAGON. Choose one toy or doll that will take part in our stoy and think about a story: What´s it about? What are the adventures? It´s a long-term task, but let´s start planning already.

You´ve got a lot of things to prepare! Good luck!

Class 4. Monday 13/10

Hello!

Today we learnt some useful grammar:
I like/love/hate playing football. (Gerund)
I like/love/hate to play football. (Infinitive) (these sentences mean the same)

BUT:
I´m good at playing the guitar.
I´m bad at speaking French. (after these phrases - Gerund ONLY).

We listened to Roberto´s hobbies and sports and interviewed our parnters:
I love playing volleyball, but my partner loves playing football etc.

We also did a very fun sports quiz. You needed some general knowledge and English to answer the quesions. You did it very well. Here´re our Olympic Games results:
Player 1 - 12 points
Player 2 - 14 points
Player 3 - 12 points
Player 4 - 14 points
Player 5 - 12 points

Next lucky one is MARCO. The task is the same - spend a week with a dragon and prepare a project.
(Prepare a project in advance, take photos, draw a picture, write a short story etc.)

Your homework is to prepare a project "My favourite sport or hobby". We´ll vote for the most interesting one.

Our rubric "I´d like to know". Write in your comments some interesting facts about sports or hobbies. The most interesting will get extra points!
Example: There´s a curious sport - Chess boxing or chessboxing. It is a hybrid sport that combines chess with boxing in alternating rounds. The match begins with a chess round which is followed by a boxing round. Rounds of chess and boxing alternate until the end of the match.
