Linguistic Area Awards

Recently, we have awarded our most gifted students with MFL as well as their mother tongue in a really gorgeous ceremony inside our little and cozy library. Everything was beautifully arranged with some freshly cut flowers decorating such a memorable moment.

The Head of the Area, Miss García conducted the brief event along with Miss Arcalá, who proudly and happily gave out all the presents and diplomas to our students. 

Happy to pose, let me share a picture with my awarded and delighted students of Year 8 and Year 9. Elena Vega got the first prizes in Love Tweet category (both in Spanish and English), while Mercedes Marchal, Lorena Morales and Lara Ballesteros got special mentions in that category too. On the other hand, Lara Ballesteros also obtained a special mention for her Calligram in French. Unfortunately, she could not attend the awards' ceremony and missed the group picture.

Relationship Applications, the App you need!

AS students are ON FIRE and have presented assorted apps they think are interesting to socialise, interact and meet other people, not only with romantic purposes, but basically to either contact to meet up, make friends or connect in a world where finding people with similar tastes gets easier thanks to new technologies. Let me share some of their multiple proposals. Although once more, due so shyness constrictions, many apps won't be shared. Too bad.

ESO4 Imaginary Land Project

After two weeks of work and fun combined, students came up with very creative and interesting new imaginary lands with their own flag, capital city, geographical aspects and peculiar laws. I made this video to show their group work and some of their creations. 

Imaginary Land IV Edition

It's been done before and WE LOVE IT. Using a collaborative and cooperative methodology, students will design their own country from scratch with the following info:

Passage Way to South Seas by

Zoltan Ducsai

1. Front Page: Name of the country and flag
2. Back page: Members of the Project
3. Index of contents:
3.1. Description of the country
3.2. Description of the capital city
3.3. Map including distinctive geographical aspects
 3.4. Flora and Fauna
 3.5. LAWS

This project is the perfect excuse to start a debate about the importance of a constitution, moving to ours in particular. Also, we will reflect not only on people's rights in general, but also on a personal level, including duties and responsibilities. Key aspects such as monarchy, presidency, religion and police forces will be questioned to be present or absent in each group's proposal.

Yes! We are back on track!

Welcome to this new academic year 2018-2019.

I'll be teaching in my old school in Jaén "Santa Catalina de Alejandría".

It feels great to be back and experience the whole European Project spirit in the air.

This is Britain Project: Final Products.

"This is Britain" is a creative, fun-filled collaborative and cooperative project that includes research, reading, speaking and much more! I am pleased to present the final products here: leporellos about each contry. Students did a brief oral presentation and were tested with flashcards about the flags, symbols and main aspects of the countries. I would like to thank my workmate Rafa Vílchez and his PMAR students for joining us in this project :D
