Por razones totalmente ajenas a mi voluntad me veo obligada a cerrar este blog temporalmente.
No voy a eliminarlo. Podréis seguir trabajando con él, pero no voy a actualizarlo en un tiempo.

Me ha costado mucho tomar esta decisión porque cada entrada de este blog, cada enlace están cargados de ilusión, de cariño y de dedicación a mis alumnos. Sin embargo, no se puede continuar cuando no quedan ánimos y, sobre todo, no se puede continuar a costa de cualquier cosa.

Ojalá en el futuro se apoyen los proyectos educativos con los recursos humanos que de verdad se necesitan. Por ahora, así están las cosas...
Muchas gracias y un abrazo grande a todos mis bloggers.
I'll miss you!
Chari.

BYE, BYE 4ºESO !!!

2008-06-18T21:51:00.001+02:00

My dear students,
It's been wonderful to see you grow up and learn throughout these years.
We've had fun together and we've also worked very hard. We've shared some moments that I will cherish forever.
I wish you all the best of luck at your new highschool. But always remember there's something more important than being a good student, and that is being a good person.

I'll miss you all,
Chari
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LAST FRIDAY.

My heart will go on...

2008-06-17T21:21:00.004+02:00

To all the girls in 4ºA (OK, and the boys, too)

AT THE RESTAURANT

2008-05-08T08:57:00.016+02:00

Do you like eating out?

As an EXTRA ACTIVITY for unit 6 you'll have to write a role play and act it out in front of your class. The story will take place at the restaurant.

There will be three or four students in each group and the role play must be ready before the 23rd of May.

You may need some help with the VOCABULARY and EXPRESSIONS used at the restaurant.

Here are some helpful sites:
- VOCABULARY at the restaurant (and pronounciation practice)
- USEFUL SENTENCES: booking, ordering, paying, etc.

Now, you can watch this as an example.

ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR FUTURE?

2008-04-22T22:15:00.015+02:00

We spend most of our lives thinking and worrying about our future:
"Will I pass my exams? Will I get married? Will I get a good job? Will I be happy? Will we control Global Warming?...

..."We should all be concerned about our future because we'll have to spend the rest of our lives there." Charles F. Kettering (inventor).

I can make a prediction right now: IF you do this EXTRA ACTIVITY you'll improve your English!!

Now practise the future tense with an old song:

Que Será Será
When I was just a little girl

I asked my mother,

what will I be

Will I be pretty, will I be rich

Here's what she said to me.

Que Será, Será,

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Será, Será

What will be, will be.

When I was young, I fell in love

I asked my sweetheart what lies ahead

Will we have rainbows, day after day

Here's what my sweetheart said.

Que Será, Será,

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Será, Será

What will be, will be.

Now I have children of my own

They ask their mother, what will I be

Will I be handsome, will I be rich

I tell them tenderly.

Que Será, Será,

Whatever will be, will be

The future's not ours, to see

Que Será, Será

What will be, will be.

Miriam and Rocío (4ºC) wanted this song "Stand by me". OK, girls, here it is:

Love, love, love...

2008-02-10T10:29:00.000+01:00

There is a world that is virtual and different
It can be so cold
Makes us stand up for what’s right
Our hope through the life if we reset it to the start

CHORUS
Here we are going far
To save all that we love
If we give all we've got we will make it through
Here we are like a star
Shining bright on your world - today
Make evil go away
Code Lyoko we'll reset it all
Code Lyoko be there when you call
Code Lyoko we will stand real tall
Code Lyoko stronger after all
A world of machines it can shadow human nature
And all that we need
Is the way to find the answer
And one thing’s sure
You can count on us for good

REPEAT CHORUS
We’ll do our best
To never let you down
We’re up to the test
To turn this world around
REPEAT CHORUS

STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN! And against every human being.

2007-11-22T17:16:00.000+01:00

November 25th is the day to remind the whole world that we must stop VIOLENCE against women

Today was probably another ordinary day for you, but TODAY lots of WOMEN all over the world SUFFERED just because they are women.

For some women HOME is not a refuge, but a place of terror. Every day, in every country in the world, women and girls are beaten and sexually assaulted by husbands, fathers, and other family members. They usually don't tell anybody because they feel scared, embarrased, isolated...

But that's not the way to stop violence. Ask for help if you are in this situation, or know anybody who is.

TEENAGERS

2007-11-08T17:35:00.001+01:00

Gangsters Paradise – Coolio

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

I take a look at my life and realise there's not much left

Cause I've been brassing and laughing so long that

Even my mamma thinks that my mind is gone

But I ain’t never crossed a man that didn't deserve it
Me be treated like a punk, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how you talking, and where you walking

Or you and your homies might be lined in chalk

I really hate to trip but I gotta lope

As they croak I see myself in the pistol smoke ... fool

I'm the kinda G that little homies want to be like

On my knees in the night, saying prayers in the street light
They been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise

We keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise

Look at the situation, they got me facing

I can't live a normal life, I was raised by the strip

So I gotta be down with the hood team

Too much television watching got me chasing dreams
I'm a educated fool with money on my mind

Got my 10 in my hand and a gleam in my eye

I'm a loped out gangsta set trippin banger

And my homies is down so don’t arouse my anger ... fool

Death ain’t nothing but a heartbeat away

I'm living life do or die, what can I say

I'm 23 now but will I live to see 24

The way things is going I don't know

Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me.

They been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise

We keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise

Power and the money, money and the power

Minute after minute, hour after hour

Everybody's running, but half of them ain’t looking

What's going on in the kitchen, but I don't know what's cooking

They say I've got to learn but nobody's here to teach me

If they can't understand it, how can they reach me
I guess they can'tI guess they won'tI guess they front

That's why I know my life is out of luck ... fool

They been spending most their lives living in the gangsta's paradise

We keep spending most our lives living in the gangsta's paradise
Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me.

Tell me why are we so blind to see

That the ones we hurt are you and me.

SEMANA SANTA

This is my favourite
"MARCHA procesional"(click to listen to it). What's your favourite "marcha"? Why?

Easter week is a Catholic celebration in Spain. They celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus and it´s particularly popular in the South. Even though it is a Catholic event, everybody enjoys it. Years ago, it was just a religious feeling. Women wore black clothing, men always wore dark suits with a black tie, and everybody was so serious. Today, in Spain, it's different, together with the religious feeling, people have fun, meet their friends, and see the floats(=pasos) just to enjoy the art in them.

Here is some VOCABULARY about Holy week.

What about EASTER in Great Britain? There're lots of SYMBOLS you'll like to know about.

Here is a selection of your best projects on Bonnie and Clyde.
Have a look at them!

CARNIVAL IN LONDON

2007-02-24T08:18:00.000+01:00

The Notting Hill Carnival is a symbol of London's multi-cultural status. It began with the Abolition of Slavery Act (abolición de la esclavitud) in 1833 when the first carnival was celebrated in Trinidad. Caribbean’s took to the streets and celebrated with songs, dance and costumes. During the 1950’s the West Indian immigrants brought their traditions with them to England. The Carnival found a home in Notting Hill in 1964. This carnival has the strong Caribbean style of its origins: Steel Drums, Calypso and Soca music ring through the streets. There are extravagant costumes, floats and dancing. It is a symbol of London’s multi-cultural status. Click HERE to watch a video.

Did you like it? Is it very different from the Carnival in Bollullos?

I hope you like it.

The Corrs - Breathless

Go on, go on
Leave me breathless
Come on
The daylight's fading slowly
The time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I feel weak
I cannot lie
From you I can not hide
I'm losing will to try
Can't hide it
Can't fight it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Let me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah come on
And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow
It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
I never want to wake up
Don't lose it
Don't leave it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Let me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Yeah come on
And I can't lie
From you I can not hide
I've lost my will to try
Can't hide it
Can't fight it
So go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me
'Till I can't deny this
Loving feeling
Make me long for your kiss
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
Come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on

Last month I went to a very special place with my family.

A very interesting place and a beautiful natural scenery. It's a good idea to go there with your family, I'm sure you'll love it!

PEACE

2007-01-29T17:21:00.000+01:00

Hello everybody, Tomorrow we'll be celebrating the day of Peace in the schools. We'll use the song "Zombie", by The Cranberries, in class as a starting point to talk about peace, and eventually we'll produce some messages of peace. I found this information on the web which may help you understand the song better. Read it (it's too long, but you don't have to read it all. Choose the parts you're more interested in) and send me your comments.
