You could pin any book or title, a favourite from childhood, a current book or something you’ve read and enjoyed.Click here to go to the site It is a wonderful idea and I want to congratulate Mª Jesús for such a splendid activity to encourage reading.

Record your voice

Go to the site

Our next task consists of recording your voice by using Soundcloud and then embed it on your glogster. The content of this recording will be your daily routines for 1º ESO and for 2º Bachillerato it will deal with the explanation of your routines to explain our costumes to the European students who we are working with in our Comenius project called "Believing in Humanity". You can add pictures, videos and comments to your glog as well as this recording that is going to be done on Thursday.

A new eTwinning project: Enlivening our libraries

We have started a new project on eTwinning, its name "Enlivening our libraries". It is the continuation of our Comenius project that we have carried out over two years, "Reading for travelling through the paths of life", which was intended to encourage reading and make our library a place of meeting with activities which motivate our students to read. Our Department has special interest in participating in this project because it involves using English as a vehicle for communication among the different countries and because we are convinced of the importance of reading to develop not only the language but the knowledge of the different cultures involved. We hope that you, our students, will be interested in this project and participate in the activities that we will be proposing.

Happy Christmas

Human Rights & Spanish Constitution

The English and French Department of IES Mediterráneo have celebrated the Human Rights Day by designing posters with the articles of the Declaration of the Human Rights making a relation with these articles and the Spanish Constitution. The 2º Bachillerato students created several comics developing these articles to diffuse them among the other students at school. They also made a gymkhana with this topic that will be carried out on 21st December at our school.

See you in March, Carmen, Martin & David

We say goodbaye to our masters until March. It has been a pleasure to work with them. They have helped us in our daily activities and have given their impressions of it. It has been very useful to hear their suggestions and enjoy their presence. See you in March.
