PROJECT UNITS 4,5 & 6: REAL SITUATIONS AT TEENS LIFE

Hi everybody!!!

Here we are with a new and quite interesting project for you all. Its title is: REAL SITUATIONS AT TEENS LIFE.

I think you know this matter probably better than me. Anyway, we are going to deal with it from different perspectives. Just follow some guidelines and I keep fingers crossed waiting for a brilliant final result.

As I told you before, we face this topic from different points of view so, first of all you are going to elaborate a survey using google forms, that is going to be distributed among all students at school. Each group is going to share out its survey in a students´level class at our High School.

In this survey, you must ask information from these aspects: relationships (family and friends), free time and interests, future life.

When you get your information, you will elaborate a summary presentation to our class and at the last slide of this presentation...you will say your wishes and conditions to reach a happy life as teenager in our current society.

To finish this project, you will make a research of teens life in other continents apart from Europe. We will decide this issue in our classroom.. You will use Genially tool. So, first of all we will watch a tutorial of how to use it and your final report about teens life in other places of the world will be designed throughout this digital tool and Reported Speech is required to be used.

Good luck guys and I hope you enjoy it. Our Monday lessons from now on, will be dedicated to this project.

INSPIRING PEOPLE IN MY LIFE: PROJECT UNIT 3

Hi guys!!!

We start a new unit titled: ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. It deals with goals and achievements in our life. Do you have any goals and challenges in your life?? I invite you to think about it and share it with your partners throughout this project.

This project is going to be individual and it is divided in several parts. Just follow some guidelines and you will know how to design it:

1.Elaborate a poster with a famous sentence or an idiom or phrase that helps you to live and achieve your goals in life.

2.We always have people that are references in our life in their way of living, because of their profession, their behaviour, their way of facing life....so you must think and find a person that inspires you.

3.Once you have chosen that person...you should elaborate a presentation of them to present in class. In that presentation you should consider these aspects:

• Who is it?
• Their profession.
• Their goals in life
• Why you admire them
• The main features or characteristic of this person that helps you in your daily life
• What you have learnt thanks to this person.

As usual, it is forbidden to write information on your slides...only titles are allowed.

17th December is your deadline for this project.

GOOD LUCK GUYS AND DO YOUR BEST!!!

WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL DEAR STUDENTS!!!

Hi everybody!!!

Here we are, together, to start a new year in our English lessons. I do not know your expectations for my subject but I realise that lots of students like you, are not able to talk in English for several reasons: they scare, they feel insecurity, they feel embarrassed or even a little bit ridiculous....This year, things are going to change...we will feel confident and impressed with ourselves. To achieve these goals just two rules to follow inside my classroom:

1-PARTICIPATE!!!
2-TALK AND TALK, YOU WILL MAKE MISTAKES FOR SURE, however you are not going to be penalized for talking incorrectly SO, TRY TO DO YOUR BEST

I promise you all, that this academic course will be an adventure.


BFN!!!
