As you know I have had a small accident and I will be a few days of rest due to a sprain, meanwhile I leave a fun musical gem to enjoy awhile, not everything was going to be English!

Bachillerato web

Go to our site

We have designed a new site for 2nd Bachillerato in order to show their online work. They have work a lot: they have created their own blogs including the tasks they have carried out throughout the year, glogs with their voices, comics and even a wiki where they organized a trip to Dublin. It has been a wonderful year and we have enjoyed it a lot.

Thank you, Bailey

Bailey,our assisstant teacher, is about to leave us and we are very sad because he has been a wonderful teacher and a wonderful mate. This is the video we have made to tell him how much we love him.

Record your voice

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.
