Our school

Welcome back! 

After a week of lessons, we are back on the track. Although we still have some restrictions (having to wear our face masks, using desinfectant and so on) we have again started a new year in our school. Looking for a big celebration, too, as our school will turn 60 years old this year.

3rd ESO students have written short descriptive texts around three topics: rules, subjects and homework and the timetable we have to follo. We hope you like the texts we have selected for you.

Blog posts

Writing a blog has become an old-fashioned way of publishing certain texts. Not many people host a blog nowadays, but we thought it would be a good practice, given that students would be able to write about different topics that may interest them. We want to show you some of the tasks provided in this post.

Informal letters

Letters in English have a formal structure and 2nd ESO students have worked with informal letters so far. The aim of the task was informing their parrents about their language course in Ireland. They had to talk about different topics, as the weather, the food, their host family, their classmates and so on. Here you have some examples.

I'd like to visit...

 2nd ESO students have written about a country they'd like to visit. They have practice the structure I'd like / I wouldn't like and have looked for information about different places. The vocabulary of the task was referred to Geography and landscape. Enjoy and plan your next holiday!

Biographies

We have been studying types of books and different ways of writing literature pieces. 2nd ESO students have written short biographies of people they admire. They have chosen sports people, politicians, youtubers, actors, singers and even people from their own families. They just chose them because of different reasons: their achievements, they way they see the world or even their abilities to cope with everyday issues. 

Here you can see some of them.

Welcome back

Back to school... and a new challenge ahead.

It's been a strange year so far. Covid has changed completely the ways we learn and teach. During the last term of 2019-2020 we had to improve our ICT skills. Teachers, students and families had to face a new challenge: e-learning. 

Emails, videocalls, computers, laptops, tablets and mobile phones became an essential part in our lives. We had to remember passwords, log in details and so on. Learning became colder, and so did teaching.

Now, three weeks after coming back to 'normal' some schools have already been closed because of cases of covid in their classrooms. We are still having lessons at school. Not in the usual way, as we have to wear masks to cover our noses and mouths, use alcohol, disinfect and sanitize hands, surfaces, ipads... 

Anyway. Welcome back. Let's try to keep in touch and updated.
