6. Extra work for Christmas.

Visit this famous website and leave a comment telling what you did, what interesting things you found and what you would recommend for other students.

5. Article and Internet research.

IT ROOM

Don't forget to sign with your name or, if you work in pairs, with your names.

If you don't speak English and you don't have an English-speaking partner, you can answer in Spanish, but remember to ask for help first.

Control the time you have, do not waste any time.

1. Read the article in this website.
2. Look up any words you don't understand, using this online dictionary. You can select the option ENGLISH-SPANISH or any other, like for example ENGLISH DEFINITION if you speak English.
3. Open a new document to answer all the questions in activities 4 and 5. When you finish, you'll have to copy the text from that document and publish it as a comment.
4. Enter Wikipedia, search "Mars" and answer the following questions in the document you've just opened: Can we see Mars from the Earth without a telescope? Copy and paste the complete sentence you found in the article in Wikipedia. Does Mars have an atmosphere? Copy and paste the complete sentence you found in the article in Wikipedia.
5. In the same document, answer this question: What did you know about Mars before you read this article? What did you learn about Mars and the rover, Curiosity, after reading the article? 
6. Check that you have all the answers for activities 4 and 5. Check capital letters, full stops, commas, presentation, separation between activities... Copy all the text in that document and paste it in the comment box to apply for publication. Don't forget to sign with your names, so you can get your marks.

4. New school year, new teacher.

Write and tell us about your new teacher. It's been two months and we're getting to know each other. You can write about your main teacher only, or about all of them if you like.

3. Pets.

These are my cats. 

Danny is a little bit fat, but he's very strong and fast. He's the best. He never misbehaves and he's always around me. He's striped and has green eyes.

 Charlie has beautiful blue eyes, everybody loves him, because he's very affectionate. He's always trying to make me pick him up, as if he were a baby. He usually goes out looking for new adventures, too, and sometimes I can't find him when it's time for dinner. I never let them out at night, because I don't want them to get into cat fights, and these usually happen at night.

Joker is white and grey. He's got a problem with his bones because he suffered an accident when he was a kitten, before we adopted him. Now, he's always following Charlie, he can't live without him, they behave like brothers.


Now, leave your comments; tell us about your pets, or the ones you used to have. I'm sorry you can't post pictures, but this way you'll have to make an effort and explain the best you can, so that we can imagine them.

Remember: if you do a really good job, your work may be included in the next issue of our school magazine.

2. Student's audio & CD-ROM

Hi there, everyone!

As a second suggestion, go on your computers and try the student's CD-ROM. Do some of the activities for Unit 1 and post telling your opinions.

1. Let's get started

Welcome everybody! In this blog we'll share information about the school and the English language. You'll be able to post optional compositions and share your opinions.

As a first suggestion, please write and tell us about your first months in our school, how you made friends and what you think about it now. If you do really well, your work may be included in the next issue of our school magazine!
