THIS IS OUR HIGH SCHOOL!

In this video the group of students from 4º ESO Bilingual Section wants to show our high school, Cuatro Caminos, to our European partners involved with us in the eTwinning project named EVERYDAY SITUATIONS. This video has been made possible thanks to the invaluable assistance of Marco Sosa Sánchez-Cortés, the Art & Design teacher, who has edited this excellent video and Dolores Ruiz Moreno, the PE teacher, who has directed most part of the choreography brilliantly.

                        

WARM CHRISTMAS GREETINGS TO EACH ONE OF YOU

CHRISTMAS!!! This word brings not only joy to our hearts but time to rest and recover energy to get a better start the second term.

Remember this:

       There is time for everything. The key is knowing how to organise it!

Here you can see a video of some pics in front of the photocall the eTwinning team has made for this special occasion.

OUR NEW ETWINNING PROJECT

This school year my 4ºESO students and I are involved in a new eTwinning project called EVERYDAY SITUATIONS. Apart from our Irish partner, we are also working with other European countries such as Poland, Ukraine, Italy and United Kingdom.

A new blog has been created for this project. If you follow us, you will see all the different activities carried out by each partner. Just click on the link below:

HALLOWEEN 2014

On October 31st the English Department organized an exhibition to celebrate Halloween. This time students were asked to bring whatever they wanted to make or design in order to take part in a contest.

Apart from this, I encouraged my 4º ESO students to participate by organizing a mini contenst  among themselves. Those who wanted to be part of it had to bring their projects on October 27th. There were 16 participants. Thanks to Alexandra, our English assistant, the secretaries, Ana and Fidela, and some other students, the best projects were  chosen. They are shown in the following pictures and video of the activity.

All the participants were given a Halloween bookmark and the best projects got some special presents.

THANKS FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION!!!!

Excellent news for us!!

On October 31st we got this gratifying news: We were awarded with  the European Quality label for our eTwinning project EUROPEAN CONNECTIONS BLOG (http://euroconn.blogspot.com.es). This encourages us to continue working on our current eTwinning project with great enthusiasm: EVERYDAY SITUATIONS.

                                                              

The day before I had attended a seminar on eTwinning projects in Mérida and I felt so proud of my students when suddenly I saw them on a presentation. One of the speakers, Lourdes Gozalo (SNA), mentioned our project as an example to follow.

GREAT WORK STUDENTS!!!

From Spain, we would also like to congratulate our Irish partners:

eTwinning national Quality Label!

WE GOT IT, STUDENTS!!

Congratulations to all of you and thanks you very much for your cooperation. Last school year my students and I registered on eTwinning portal and started a project called EUROPEAN CONNECTIONS BLOG. It was also carried out by the Irish teacher Ciara Rock. The project had a good balance of ICT use (Information and Communications technology) and classroom activities which fit into the school curriculum.

The participation in this project was not considered as an extra work, but a tool used to improve my teaching skills and help my students communicate in a foreign language and work with students from another country.
