Thursday 16th April





Hello my dear little team! How are you? I guess you're really fine since tomorrow is Friday... you will have some time to rest and to revise the uses of  TO and FOR... remember: Never together!!


Well, last class we finished the topic of  JOBS by doing many speaking activities. First I want to say that this week I'm very happy with your homework and even with your behaviour!! I can't believe it! I hope we can have more days like this one; when everything's right everybody's happy.


We were revising voc related to jobs (in general),uniforms and tools... some of them were:


  • pilot
  • currier
  • doctor
  • bus driver
  • surgeon
  • plumber
  • firefighter
  • welder

and some more. 

Also we talked about your dream jobs... No comment! But well done.


In the second part of the class we continued with some reading activities and revised your homework for next Thursday: please, do your best and don't forget. I'd like to see again everything so well done as today, ok?


And unfortunately next week we won't know about any famous person since the "owner" of our pet forgot to bring it to class... It's a pity because the information shown was very nice... Let's see next week what happens.


And... as I promised, we worked with one of your favourite songs since you behaved so nicely. The first has been What does the fox say?... Next week, if you do so well we'll work with another one. I promise.







To finish here you have your points:

That's all, class.

Hello class! How are you after these days of holiday? I hope you have rested and you have had lots of fun; now it's time to work a bit hard to get good results in the last term, ok? Are you ready?


In our first class we continued working with JOBS, first of all to check what you remembered after the holidays. After the warming up session we completed some listening activities what you did very well, and we continued speaking and reading,knowing very interesting facts of some famous people with really different jobs.


In the second part of the class we continued working with the differences between present simple and present continuous and we completed and checked some activities, I'm very happy with your performance, really... For that reason, if you go on working so well, I promised to work with your favourite songs, the ones you selected last class, ok? But if you want to have your songs, you have to behave, right?


More things. As I told you last class this term we have a new project with our Dragon Pet. We are going to know lots of new things related to famous people! But important people in History; so you will have to look for some relevant information to write down in the worksheet I'll give you and then, you will add a photograph in which we could see the Dragon with you and something related to the person described.

As I explained in class, if that person is an inventor you can use his/her main invention to show in the photograph; if he or she is an explorer, you can show in a map the place he or she discover... or you can take a photo of the Dragon in disguise as you did for Halloween or Carnival... so you can be really creative!! Use your knowledge and your imagination and do your best, ok?


This week Adrian E. will teach us about  Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone. I'm really looking forward to hearing from your job!









And now to finish here you have your first points of the last term!!

Hello class!! How are you? We are on holiday!! I hope you have  a great time these days and you can rest and have fun and come again with lots of energy to face the last term. You deserve this week since we have worked hard these months.


Last class was very funny, we had a great flea market full of things and people and we got lots of money... unbelievable!! I hope you enjoyed as I did.


The first part of the class we were commenting on your marks and your plans for holidays; after that we were deciding the price for all the things you brought and we made some very nice labels. Also we were revising some songs we listened to during these months and we had a lot of fun.


Then we had our market. Very successful! I'm very happy with your job.


And to finish you had your marks and this time Jorge won a great bag, now you can come to class with a new one. I hope you like!


That's all, class. I hope you had a really good time this week.   


Be good, have fun, see you in class!! (9th April)





Bye!

Hi boys! How are you? I know you're tired after studying so much for your school exams... but this weeks will go very fast and very soon we are enjoying some holidays. Until then I hope you enjoy next weekend, now the weather is great!


Last class we continued with the topic about JOBS. We had lots of listening activities and they were well done; you're improving your listening skills, which makes me  happy. Also we revised present simple and present continuous. Your homework was good, too.

We also worked with this voc when describing jobs:


  • well-paid
  • badly-paid
  • interesting
  • boring
  • difficult
  • easy
  • exciting
  • tiring
  • dangerous

In the second part of the class we continued with our project FOOD IS A RIGHT. We made some crafts in order to get our aim, that is to collect food for the ones who need. You did a good job.

More things. Next Thursday we don't have class, so for this reason you have a bit more HW. But you only  have to translate the short texts I gave you, ok? And don't forget to be ready for our FLEA MARKET the last week of March. You can bring everything you want to sell, ok?

And there  are only two weeks to continue working with our pet, so Adrian, you'll take this week the Dragon with you, and next term we will do different projects, ok?

Please: don't forget your homework!!

Hello boys! How are you? I hope you're really fine although you have to study these days because of your school exams. Well, manage your time and you'll get very good results, I'm sure. Anyway, I wish you lots of luck.

Last class we started a new lesson. Now we'll work with the topic of JOBS and we'll revise present simple and present continuous. I think you won't have problems with this lesson since you proved you know a lot about this topic. You did very good activities of both listening and speaking and I also have to say that your behaviour was much better than some weeks ago. I'm happy.







Our project based on the Dragon's adventures around the world is coming to its end. Next week we'll learn interesting things about the USA thanks to Bruno. I'm sure we'll enjoy your presentation.

Next week we will continue with the other project as well. We will organise how we will collect some food and so on.

And remember to bring your homework too. Complete the worksheet I gave you. Last day you did very good; I hope next week you do the same.

And here you have your points:

Hi boys! How's it going? I hope you're fine ready to enjoy your weekend, although maybe you have to study a lot, since the second term is coming to its end. Well, I wish you lots of luck!

This week we have finished this topic about food. Last class we revised countable vs uncountable nouns. We practised listening and speaking activities with questions such as:


  • How much water do you drink?
  • How many tomatoes do you eat?
And so on. You did right.





Also we listened to a chef preparing a delicious dish and you identified the ingredients and the instructions to have this dish done.

After that we were having some posters done in relation to our project. Taking advantage of our topic we got some pictures to ask for food. We wrote FOOD IS A RIGHT and we glued some examples. I'll show you the photos I took. 

And what also is coming to its end is our Pet's trips around the world. Next week we will learn about Greece thanks to Javi who will show us photos and interesting things about this unknown country. I think is a very original plan. And then with Bruno the week after we will have finished.

More things: HOMEWORK. I gave you a worksheet you have to complete. It's to revise comparative, vocabulary and coutable-uncountable. We explained in class and you said you didn't have any question... so I hope you do your best, ok? And don't forget and don't tell me stories... as you know if no homework no points.

Here you have this week's:

Hi boys! How's it going? I think you're fine since it's almost weekend and have more time for yourselves, haven't  you? That's good. Also, it's good that you behaved a little better last class. Almost all of you showed me your HW and it was very good. At last!

Last Thursday we continued working with the topic of FOOD. We focused on listening and speaking activities through practising lots of conversations and role-play performances. To be honest, all of you did quite  well.

We worked with new voc when ordering a meal:


  • appetizer
  • sauce
  • mixed fruit
  • filet
and some others.

For homework you will complete some dialogues of this kind in the worksheet I gave you. Also (att the back page) you will have to write a short composition (around 60 words) about your eating habits including:

  • What you have for breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner
  • What time you eat
  • Differences between week and weekend
  • A special day/celebration
I hope this is clear and you write a good composition. If you don't do it you won't get points, right?



Next week our Dragon goes to China with Jonathan. Remember you have to explain interesting things about the country you chose, including where the country is, what the typical food and traditions are, and famous monuments as well. Please, take time enough to do a good job, ok?

And let's finish with your points:

  1. Player 1: 25
  2. Player 2: 26
  3. Player 3: 23
  4. Player 4: 25
  5. Player 5: 12
  6. Player 6: 15
  7. Player 7: 24
  8. Player 8: 24

That's all.

Be good, have fun, see you in class
