Hello class!! How are you? Ready for Christmas?? I'm sure you are after these months working so hard!! I hope you spend a really good time with family and friends and enjoy these special celebrations.
Last class we had a good time; we made some crafts, we took some photographs and we sang and dance a very nice Christmas carol. I'm really proud; you did very very well.
Then you received your marks and we knew who was the winner of our Olimpic Games: This tern the winner is Adrián Esteban... but Adrián Flores was very few points less... The second term is looking interesting!
And to finish here you have this special gift. I hope you like.
And that's all this term... I really wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy happy 2015
Be good, have fun, see you in class... next year!!!
Hello boys! How are you? I'm sure you're waiting for our first Holiday. I know you're a bit tired and actually all of us need a little rest.
Last class I saw a very good job with your homework; it was very well done, especially those who didn't forget to write the sentences. For this reason only 3 students got more points. We had a look to the days of the week and the months and daily activities. We will continue after Christmas.
Then we watched a very interesting video about "strange" Christmas traditions in different parts of the world. Here you have to watch again since you liked very much
Well, here you have if you want to see again or watch with your family.
And now to finish here you have your (last) points:
Player 1: 27
Player 2: 25

That's all. I hope you enjoy your last week at school.
Hello boys!! How are you? Well, I hope
you're fine; I'm fine, too... although I still miss some comics. Remember next week is the last to bring your projects. You're doing a very good job, but I need all your comics to put them together
Last class we first checked your comics;good job. Then we practised months and days... again.I think it's ok. You did good activities, listening and speaking You
have to review a bit more, especially the use of the present simple.
We reviewed the structure:
On Sunday evening I watch TV
On Friday morning we go shopping
On Tuesday afternoon my sister plays tennis
We will continue next week talking about sports deeply, right?
Remember to continue with your comics; finish colouring and bring next week . Also, don't forget to bring the worksheet you have for homework. And you, Jonathan, bring the interview with the Dragon and
don't forget to add a picture or photograph. Remember you have to
interview the Dragon, so you can invent the answers or ask someone
for help.
Hello boys!! How are you? Well, I hope
you're fine and happy after learning so many things about
Thanksgiving!! We watched a very ineresting video which helped us to
understand this American tradition; maybe in some years we also
celebrate Thanksgiving, would you like?
Here you have some voc we learnt:
corn on the cob, feast, pilgrims,
mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie, gravy, roast turkey...
Last class we first checked your
comics; well, we will continue a bit more until we have a kind of
book full of pictures and stories, it will be really nice, believe
me.
Then we practised more voc related to
hobbies. I think this is enough and next week we can start a new
lesson, let's see if we are ready, ok?
As I told you, you can get some extra
points if you work here in our blog. Here you have some words for you
to write a sentence and get more points. Are you ready? That's what I
hope!
Listening to music
Collecting things
Video games
Football
Chess
Board games
Reading magazines
Going to the cinema
Ok. So if you show me next day
sentences (8 sentences) with these words and they are well written
you'll get more points, right?
Remember to continue with your comics;
write some texts in order to understand the pictures or colour them.
And you, Charlie, bring the interview with the Dragon and don't forget
to add a picture or photograph. Remember you have to interview the
Dragon, so you can invent the answers or ask someone for help.
Hi boys! How's it going?Making up stories for your comics? Well, that's what I hope because in class you showed very cool ideas!
Last class was very good. I was very happy because some of you got extra points after completing the questions I wrote in the blog. I hope more and more of you start doing the same, I mean, entering the blog to do this activities, or upload some of your photos, well, what you want.
We were working with hobbies voc and you role played some interviews in order to know more about your classmates, asking the things you like, you love, you don't like and so on. You did surprisingly well as I told you.
After that we were practising some listening activities in which people were talking about their free time activitites. Then we practised some more speaking. It seems this topic is easy for you, especially because your homework was really, really good. I'm astonished!
Then, we started with our project. In the end you decided to do a comic instead of writing stories. Well, maybe that's a better idea taking advantage of your imagination. We started with some drafts so for homework you will write and draw them clean, ok?
And you Jorge, take care of the Dragon and next day show us some pictures and explain the class the things you're doing, right? Enjoy these days, ok?
And here you have your points:
Player 1: 32
Player 2: 31

Player 6: 17
Player 7: 32
Well, I hope you enjoy with your pictures and stories as you did in class. We had lots of fun.
Hello boys, how are you today? I hope you're fine, I'm fine too. Last class we practised LIKE + ING again and again but still you need more. I mean, I know you understand the structure but when you write or speak you forget. I hope that you can do your homework in the right way and if still you have doubts or questions please: ask me.
We went through all the skills last class; still we have to continue with the -ING verbs especially when writing, since speaking goes a bit better.
Anyway, I think that one of the most important things we practised in class was how to access to our blog. For this reason you will show that now you're able to enter by getting some extra points if you complete this activity.
- WHAT'S YOUR HOBBY? - WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT YOUR HOBBY? - WHEN DO YOU DO YOUR HOBBY?
Apart from this remember to complete the worksheet I gave you because is your homework.
And you Bruno please, take some pictures of you and the Dragon and tell us about the things you do with it.
Hello class!! How's it going? Well, I hope you're ok enjoying your time, especially your free time. This is our new topic: free time and hobbies; so I hope this makes you speak as well as you did last class. Week after week you seem to take more seriously the language, I mean, at least you're trying everyday to improve your English. We're doing lots of activities based on speaking and pronunciation, this is the aim of the course. I'm glad to see that you (almost always) try your best.
Last Thursday we finished the revision of WH-questions organising some sentences. After that we introduced the new topic talking about the things you like doing in your leisure time. We pointed the importance of the structure LIKE + -ING (and some other verbs) and we practised. We completed this first part with listening exercises.
In the second part we listened to a song about hobbies and then we went on with voc related to things we enjoy doing (collecting things, reading books & comics, listening to music, playing video games, watching movies....) We practised pronunciation with a short text you will have to work with as homework. Don't forget! But just in case here you are:
You have to complete this worksheet for next day. And you Charlie remember to show some pictures of you and our Dragon. Try to tell the class the things you have done with it, especially in your free time.What abour his hobbies? Please, don't forget this time, and don't leave the Dragon at home!!

Hello class, how are you? Planning a super very cool Halloween party? I hope so, and I hope you enjoy a lot. Last class we did. We worked with lots of things related to Halloween. You listened to some songs and even you danced... You looked really cool with your masks and so.
We first checked your homework, very well done, by the way; and then we started talking about all the things you know about this celebration. We completed some wordsearch and other activities of this kind and we laughed a lot.
Then we were working with a Halloween story. Please, read again and answer the questions, it's homework. And you, Adrian, try to take some pictures of you and the Dragon, especially if you attent to a Halloween party. It would be nice if our pet dresses up too!
After our break we mixed with other students. They had prepared things for you and you did a really good game with the Hangman. They were absolutely astonished. Everybody spent a good time.

Hello dear boys! How are you? Waiting for the weekend... I'm sure. Well, me too.
Last class we were revising vocabulary related to family and we introduced adjectives to describe people's appearance. We were completing listening activities and you are doing better and better, at last!! We practised a lot with examples and I think you know how to describe someone. Well, that's homework. You have to describe a person you like, since you didn't want to describe yourselves or someone in your family... Adrian, you have to describe our Dragon with lots of details, so what you don't know... you invent, and you add also some description when talking about the things you do with the pet, ok?
By the end of the class you played this "Who am I?" game.... and I have to say that if you want to play that game again you have to have clear rules since last day was not very good and you were fighting all the time.

Please, as I told you, try to bring some stories to tell, games... whatever you said was ok, so please, do it. I trust you.
Hi boys! How are you?? I guess you're really fine, knowing you did a very good job last class. Last Thursday you made a great effort to keep English throughout the whole class. That made me happy and we had a good time.
We started revising voc related to family and learnt new words. We completed some listening activities and worked with speaking too.
We worked also with BE GOING TO, and although you seem to understand we will work a bit more. Anyway I was satisfied.
By the end of the class we played a game with cards related to family and was really fun!! It was a great fight and we laughed a lot. You got a lot of points, as well.

Saul, you have the Dragon. In your case you will add a picture of our pet. Try to be original when answering my questions.
Hello class!! How are you? I hope you're fine now that it's "weekend". Remember to take a little time to revise what we learnt in our last class. We were working with vocabulary related to family and with possessive. We worked with possessive 's and possessive adjectives. We listened to a description about 2 people in a family and then you practised pronunciation; you did a good job and won a lot of points.
Also you were given good marks for your homework. As you can see, when both sides (you and me) work together everything goes right. Next time less Spanish, as I asked you, ok?
For next week you have to create your family tree and give a short presentation to the class (as Thursday). Try to be original as I told you. All of you will show your family and Jonathan will show our Dragon Pet's family tree, ok?. This is homework. Do your best.

Hello boys, how are you? I hope you're ok and getting your homework ready for next day. Last class some of you forgot at home... right?
Ok. Apart from that, some students had a very naughty behaviour during our last session. I hope you do your best next day or I will have to think of ways of punishing instead of planning games.
We were revising the way we use to speak about our friends and then we talked about the things we like (Your favourite actor, actress, football team...) You did very well. Then we were revising some nationalities first with a crossword (and activities) and with a chart on the blackboard)
You did a good speaking performance in general, but you have to practise a bit more, ok? For this reason we played that game by the end of the class (Who am I?) and also to get more points.

Hello boys! Here we are again after a long, long summer holiday. I hope you have enjoyed this time but now we must be ready to work.
In our first class we introduced ourselves and then you told me about your summer. You were asking and aswering questions and you did very well. We played some games using question-response (and animals.... )method and had fun.
The second part of the class was used to practice listening activities focusing on the pronunciation of the present simple of the verb TO BE and the revision of countries, numbers, etc. Also we wrote and spoke about your best friend and by the end of the class we played that game based on giving messages... it was very funny!
