Monday 15th December

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 Pablo... but Adrian was only 3 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? Well, I hope you're fine after the weekend... although still I miss lots of stories. Very few lines written, except one or two students, the rest, please: don't forget to bring your stories and pictures in two weeks; remember that next Monday 8^th we don't have class, so you have time enough to finish. Time is running out, tic-toc, tic-toc...

Remember to continue with your stories; write some more lines and add pictures to make the stories more beautiful.

Hello boys, how are you? Well, I'm fine, I hope you're fine too. Last week we listened to this song but I didn't upload here. Now here you are and I hope you enjoy listening to it as many times as you want. This way you will practise the question HOW MANY _____________? as we have been doing these days.

Also we completed some worksheets to finish this structure. Last day we practised the short forms ISN'T AREN'T; it's right but we will do some more activities. You can say sntences very well and you can count things to say the number . But when writing you still have some difficulties. Try to revise at home.

Last class we were listening to the story severl times to practise your comprehension when reading. At last you did a very good job. I'm satisfied. Yoy paid a lot of attention to get good marks!. That's ok.

And its time to talk about our project. You will write (little by little) som stories with our Dragon as the main star, ok? We will do part of this project in class to make things easier, ok? So try to organize your ideas and start writing some lines of your stories. Also you will include some pictures or photographs. We have to take this serously because if one doesn't everything will go wrong, ok? I hope I can trust you.

And Jorge, our Dragon Pet is with you this week. I hope you have fun and don't forget to show and tell us about these days, all right?

And now to conclude here you have your points:

1. Player 1: 38
2. Player 2: 22
3. Player 3: 28
4. Player 4: 26
5. Player 5: 35
6. Player 6: 33
7. Player 7: 20

That's all.

Be good, have fun, see you in class!

Monday 10th November

Hello class, how's it going? Well, I hope you're fine and revising what we learnt last lesson. We were working again with THERE IS / THERE ARE  but still we have to continue practising. Fortunately last class was better than the previous one.

We had speaking activities with the structure mentioned above. We were asking HOW MANY... ARE THERE? and giving answers, you showed a little improvement at least. Still I have to remind you that this is not the playground and that you come here to learn, ok? Don't forget.

We listened to a story to introduce new characters. I asked you to listen to it again but I cannot upload the story, I don't know why.Well, don't worry because next week I will give you the written text and we will answer some questions.

Remember to complete the worksheet I gave you because it's homework to review THERE IS/ISN'T, THERE ARE / THERE AREN'T, IS THERE...? / ARE THERE...? And you Hector bring some pictures of you with the Dragon and get ready  to explain to the class next day, ok?

To finish, here you have your points:

1. Player 1: 24
2. Player 2: 22
3. Player 3: 10
4. Player 4: 21
5. Player 5: 24
6. Player 6: 24
7. Player 7: 19

Be good, have fun, see you in class!

Monday 3rd November

Hello kids, how are you? I hope that you're fine and relaxed, not like in our last class, you behaved horribly, well, not everybody but most of you, and that makes me angry... and if I'm angry you play less games, as you know. I hope this can be the last  time I have to write these comments, ok?

In out last meeting we started learning this new structure THERE IS/THERE ARE. We will work more on this topic because it seemed a bit difficult. Anyway, your activities were right and you understood the songs we listened to. Also the numbers. We were revising numbers 1-20, and it's true you're able to say and pronounce, but still you have to write a bit better. However that's not so important.

During the second part of the class we continued with the structure mentioned above but practising the short forms: THERE'S... next day we'll see the negative. We introduced the question HOW MANY_____________ ARE THERE? as well with some pictures and speaking activities. Try to practice at home repeating the question and counting things, ok? It would be nice. That, apart from your homework. You have to complete activity 4, counting the animals appearing in the picture and answering the question How many...?. And you Adrian remember to prepare your collage with some pictures of you and our Dragon doing "your things", ok? Don't forget!

Let's go with your points:

1. Player 1: 25
2. Player 2: 15
3. Player 3: 0
4. Player 4: 20
5. Player 5: 24
6. Player 6: 25
7. Player 7: 15

That's all. Please, revise everything we learn class after class. You'll get better results. And if there's something that you don't understand ask me, here I am, ok?

Be good, have fun, see you in class.

Bye

Monday 27th October

Hello class!! How are you? I hope you're happy after the new experience of the day...

In our last class first we checked your homework, I must admit that you did a very good job. It seems that all the practice we have made has its result, I mean, you seem to understand quite well the verb HAVE GOT and when we use it.

Then we were revising some vocabulary related to Halloween and listened to some songs. Also we watched a couple of short videos as a way to warm up what came after. Here you have one of them. Enjoy it and sing with your family!

After the break we mixed with some other students who had prepared some activities for you. They showed you some vocabulary, you coloured a Halloween poster and youu played the hangman with more Halloween words. You did very well!. I hope you have enjoyed this experience in order to repeat after some weeks, of course with a different topic.

Let's say now your points:

1. Player 1: 25
2. Player 2: 23
3. Player 3: 24
4. Player 4: 25
5. Player 5: 25
6. Player 6: 25
7. Player 7: 23

Remember that for next day you have to finish the sentences you have in the worksheet I gave you; so please, don't forget to tranlate the other 6 short sentences, all right?

Be good (and a bit naughty, it's Halloween!) have fun, see you in class!

Bye, Bye
