DIRECTO INSTAGRAM LESSON 2

10:00. Clase en directo para 2º ESO A y C
12:00  Clase en directo para 3º ESO B y C
Corregiré algunos ejercicios de ayer y explicaré algunos puntos. And maybe I'll tell a joke or two!

3rd ESO LESSON 2

Hi, darlings!
Yesterday we worked on pg 65, and did some translation. I will correct the exercises today during the direct at 12.00. I'm still trying to upload the listenings to the classrroom but this is getting a bit difficult.
Today we're focussing on the Social Awareness section., PG 66. It is a topic we all should be interested in , since it deals with our education.

What are your plans? Do you intend to keep on studying at High School until you're 18?
Would you like to study vocational training? Enjoy this section, and see you at 12!

PARA TODA LA CLASE, INCLUÍDO PMAR

PG 66, exercises 1, 2, 3 and 4.

Make a list of the vocabulary you don't know. I'll give you more clues later.

ok, it is essential that you know the difference between Academic and Vocational education (formación académica, el instituto para luego ir a la universidad, y formación profesional).

ALUMNOS DE PMAR, HACED LOS EJERCICIOS ANTERIORES Y MANDAD FOTO A CLASSROOM. A PARTIR DE AQUÍ, NO TENÉIS QUE HACER LOS EJERCICIOS OBLIGATORIAMENTE. El resto del alumnado continua haciendo los ejercicios, pero no tiene que enviar nada salvo el comentario al ejercicio 

pg66, A Read carefully the fact box and try and make calculations. For example, if 88% 16- year-olds stay in education, what percentage of teenagers abandone school? And what do they do then?

pg 66 B. Explain in English the meaning of these words:
apprenticeship:
regret:
qualifications:
capable:
careers advisor.
pg 66 C. Finally, Write 5 original questions whose answer is in the text. Write them in the comments. remember to sing your comments, ( eg. A. B. G. G. 3rd B) and that they won't appear until tomorrow.

Hi, my dear students!
Last week we begun unit 6, which deals with Jobs, entrepreneurship and your personal qualities. In the grammar sections we were working with modals, basically must, mustn't, have to, don't / doesn't have to, should and shouldn't.

Today, you must work on pg 65.

  •  Excercises 1 and 2. Once you have thought about it, answer the questions in excercise 2 as a comment to this entry. For example:

"The quiz recommends me working on the education sector. I agree, because I'm a very patient person but a bit bossy at the same time, and I like helping others, so it would be a good option for me". 
¡¡¡No vale poner mi comentario!!!


  • Exercise 3. use a dictionary if necessary.
  • Exercise 4. 
  • Excercises 5 and 6. Copy them in your notebook. Wait for directions.
  • Translate into English. Do it by hand:
  1. Para tener éxito en los negocios debes tener un espíritu emprendedor.
  2. No hace falta que enviéis comentarios a todas las entradas.
  3. Sigue trabajando en ésto. Deberías estudiar al menos 6 horas al día mientras estás en casa.
  4. Bill Gates no terminó su carrera universitaria.
  5. ¿Tienes que llevar uniforme en tu instituto?
Mañana más. I love you.

Daniel Defoe


We have been reading recently about Robinson Crusoe and its author, Daniel Defoe. This writer had a very interesting life in an epoch when conventions were much stricter than now. One aspect of his complex personality is shown in the works he wrote not only on women, but as women, since he used the first person narrator to impersonate female characters.
Roxana and Moll Flanders, are two good examples . From a 21st century perspective, his standing up against equality of rights among sexes is an evidence of how along history, both men and women have been sensible to the need of such a defense. 8th of March aproaching, it seems a suitable topic to reflect on.

Here there's a link to some articles on his work( in Spanish)

Roxana
Defoe y la Educación de la Mujer


And of course, I recomend you to see the movie  !

Day of Andalucía



Next Friday we will celebrate the day of Andalucía. In 1980 Andalucian people voted to be an Autonomous Comunitiy, but the origin of our concept and feelings is much older and complex. Some men, women, along with our natural spaces, monuments or traditions have contributed to the forge of our identity.
We clearly relate the white and green flag to Andalucía, but there's much more to it. I invite you to make comments answering these questions:

What things, places, activities, culture, people etc. represent Andalucía?
What is for you to be Andalusian?



Finally, I leave here a translation into English of our Hymn, whose text was originally writen by Blas Infante and whose music was inspired by religious song country workers sang every working day.

Have a nice celebration.

ANDALUSIAN HYMS

The white and green flag
comes after centuries of war
to say peace and hope
under the sun of our land.

Andalusian people
rise up, up
Ask for land and freedom
Go for free Andalusia
Spain and the humankind.

We all people from Andalusia
want to be as we used to be
enlightened people who gave to others
a human soul, their soul as people.

(translation by Ana Belén Gómez)
