BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

Experimenting (QUARANTINE: DAY 29)


(FIFTH WEEK of quarantine) Again here we have another opportunity to keep on experimenting. This time we will be trying some online classes, even though I have just noticed that Monday was still part of our "incredible holidays" confined at home. I hope you don't mind.

 

By the way, in spite of being at our Easter holidays, I'm really happy with the work done with a few students, who have completed their 25 comments, written all the compositions proposed, done all the work (even digital projects) regarding our compulsory readers.... and even video sketches!!! 

 

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!   You are real SURVIVORS, HEROES!!!

First, can you watch this to revise?

Very good morning, ladies and gentlemen!!

 

I hope you are all well, safe and sound. Here's again the link to the session, just in case: https://eu.bbcollab.com/guest/379e7c0b009640fea3b23156deeba859

 

MAIN GUIDELINES FOR TOMORROW'S EXAM:


First, the student has to download the two attachments above: the exam and the audio for the listening exercise in the exam.

Once, you have downloaded them, you have to decide which level you are going to do. If you do level 1, you cannot use anything at all (and, please, be honest). If you do level 2, you have got the possibility of doing it without anything (no folder, no textbook, no dictionary, no translator...) or you can do it with the help of: your folder, the textbook or any other material.

In any case, you must tell me the conditions in which you do the exam. We must be honest as I have to know how good your level of achievement is. If we don't do it in a fair way, we will have fake results and all this work will be useless. Apart from that, I strongly recommend all of you to copy and try to do LEVEL 1 EXAM!!! as this will be the one we will correct later.

Then, you can either print the exam and handwrite it or just have it on the screen of your computer and handwrite it.

Finally, as we have done so far, you will scan or photograph it and you will send it to my by email by 11 a.m.


Spanish: El alumno tiene que descargarse los dos archivos: el examen y el audio del listening exercise del examen. Una vez se lo haya descargado, tiene que decidir qué nivel va a hacer. Si hace el nivel 1 (level 1), no puede utilizar nada (y, por favor, sea honesto). Si hace el nivel 2, tiene la posibilidad de hacerlos sin la ayuda de nada o hacerlo con la ayuda de: el archivador, el libro de texto o otro tipo de ayuda. En cualquier caso, me lo debe decir. Tenemos que ser honestos y yo debo saber cómo está su nivel de conocimientos. Si no lo hacemos bien, todo este trabajo no sirve para nada.
De todas formas, recomiendo que todo el mundo tenga copiado (y si puede, que lo haga a lo largo de la semana) el examen de nivel 1, que será el que corregiremos el lunes 20 en nuestra próxima clase online.
A continuación, o bien lo impreme y lo escribe a mano o bien simplemente tiene el examen en la pantalla de su ordenador y lo escribe a mano en una hoja de su libreta.
Finalmente, como hemos hecho hasta ahora, lo escanean o le echan una foto (comprueben que se vea bien) y me lo mandan por correo electrónico para antes de las 11.

Very good morning, ladies and gentlemen!!

 

I hope you are all well, safe and sound. Here's the link to our session, just in case: https://eu.bbcollab.com/guest/55c766d756b946bd8cf62f7443269e0b

  

MAIN GUIDELINES FOR TOMORROW'S EXAM:

First, the student has to download the two attachments above: the exam and the audio for the listening exercise in the exam.

Once, you have downloaded them, you have to decide which level you are going to do:

  1. LEVEL 1 (pages 3-6) If you do level 1, you cannot use anything at all (and, please, be honest). 

  2. LEVEL 2 (pages 7-9)  If you do level 2, you cannot use anything at all, either (and again, please, be honest)

  3. LEVEL 3 (pages 1-2) This is the exam for PENDIENTES. There is no listening exercise. You cannot use anything at all.

  4. LEVELS 4/5 (pages 10-12) If you do this exam, you can use anything you want if you are in level 5; and just your folder if you are in level 4.

In any case, you must tell me the conditions in which you do the exam. We must be honest as I have to know how good your level of achievement is. If we don't do it in a fair way, we will have fake results and all this work will be useless. Apart from that, I strongly recommend all of you to copy and try to do LEVEL 1 EXAM!!! as this will be the one we will correct later.

Si hace el nivel 1, 2 y 3, no puede utilizar nada (y, por favor, sea honesto). Si hace el nivel 4, tiene la posibilidad de hacerlo con la ayuda del archivador. Si hace el nivel 5, puede utilizar además el libro de texto o un diccionario (no traductor). En cualquier caso, me lo debe decir.

Very good morning, ladies and gentlemen!!

 

I hope you are all well, safe and sound.

 

Next Monday from 11 a.m. to 13 a.m. I will be meeting my 1º Bachillerato students to see if you have any doubts about the first 7 units. The session is already in the lecture room here in Moodle (English 1º Bachillerato) and this is the link, just in case: https://eu.bbcollab.com/guest/c32436f87fda4ceea41aa7897f70a93b

 

Let me know if you have any problems or any other activities. If we see that the experience is useful, we'll repeat to give you some important explanations about unit 8.

 

Your teacher,

 

Albert





Here are some films about Sherlock Holmes for my students in 1º Bachillerato:
