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.

Unstoppable!!

 

 Yes, this is how we saw Álcaraz last week in Barcelona and how some of my students may feel now that we are coming to the end of the school year. "Unstoppable, invincible, powerful, confident...", as the singer Sia says in her song. However, we should always be humble when facing important challenges in life.

Master English with ChatGPT - A Step-by-Step Guide to Language Learning    



   

Here's my musical hint for today: Unstoppable by Sia. Here's a version with the lyrics for you to sing along!! 

 


 

 

 

Some activities for you to do: 

 

 

Some more activities for my students:

  • 1º ESO - What do you need to feel 'unstoppable' when learning English and having a good mark? Using the modal verbs learned in unit 5 write a comment in the affirmative and the negative to tell us how you do it and if you have any doubts, you can also ask some questions for advice.

Example: You must write your comments as soon as possible. You can read the voluntary book for the third term. You should not leave everything to the last minute. Can you record a video sketch to improve your mark? Must you hand in all the writing exercises? Should I study every day?

  • 1º ESO - What is your favourite sport? Explain the rules.

Example: My favourite sport is tennis. I can play tennis in Salobreña sports facilities. I can't play tennis with my left hand. You must train very hard to become a good player. You mustn't bring your pet to the tennis court, but it can stay outside. You should bring enough tennis ball to play and you shouldn't forget to call a friend to play with you.

My doubts: Can you play alone? Yes, if there is a wall. Must your tennis racket be very expensive to play well? No, it is not necessary. You can start with a cheap one. Should I wear a cap? Yes, if it is summer and it is very warm.

  2. The end of the course is coming and we have to try to do the exams well to be able to pass the course, also to not be studying in the summer holidays, to be able to rest, go out with your friends and have fun, to be able to go to the beach, to go for an ice cream.

  3. Carlos alcaraz has been better at playing tennis than tsitsipas, he has won the Godó final.
    At only 19 years old, if he continues like this he will become one of the best players in the world.
    Let's go alcaraz for the Roland Garros!

  7. English seems difficult to me, because I don't understand anything.
    Previously I took notes of 7 and 8 but now I don't know what happened to me.
    I know that with a little suffering and effort you can pass, and on top of that, English is a language that will open many doors for you in the future.

  10. Te end of the school year is near so we need to do our best to get the best marks. A lot of people will feel confident but others can feel anxious because there are a lot of exams and they are near of each other so we have less time for ourselves and this can dicrease your confidence and think that you'll fail al the exams and you won't pass. But in this type of situations you need to keep calmed and take your to organise everything, when you do this you can create priorities and you'll be more calm and you can increase or maintain a good mark.

  15. HAVE A PET
    Having a pet is a great responsibility.
    My parents recently bought me a rabbit, before buying it we had to buy a wooden house, hay, which is what it eats daily, compressed hay, a bottle with a tube for it to drink...
    It is white, its ears are gray and it has blue eyes.
    For me it is the best rabbit in the world.
