Parents Meeting Year 7

Thank you to all parents of year 7 yesterday! I just hope you enjoyed and understood the teaching and evaluation methods of the subject much better.  As I said to you, this webpage is not just for students but everybody interested in learning a little bit more about Geography and History in a more relaxed and open environment. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. They are all welcome. Thank you for all the positive feedback!!!



Project & Presentation Year 9s

A project is coming... you must pay attention to the instructions and work hard as this grade is going to be needed for this term. You will do some work as part of a team and you will do some work individually too. Everything must be done properly and handed in on time. Be careful with the deadlines. Any project that is not done correctly will be repeated and the whole group could be penalised. More information in our next lesson. :-)

Dear pupils,

Please can you excuse my absense from class, as you noticed last week I could not talk much as I did have some pain in my throat. Even so I was there as usual and I did not miss a lesson. As a consecuence of that I have been forcing my throat too much, I did have an overdose of lessons and substitutions plus low temperatures making everything worse. For that reason my throat and body gave me a signal on friday and needed to go to doctor. He said I need to rest at least for a few days or I could make things worst. So I need to rest my voice, not to talk at all (very difficult for some of you... I know!!!) .We will see how I am on monday or tuesday. In the mean time I am sending my work for the day or days I am not there and you suppose to be working as usual. I will be checking everything when I am back. Thank you all, for your support, understanding and sweet messages.

Documental for Year 9 and 11

This is very interesting documental to explain the economic crisis we are going through and the connections with the different groups of people and organisations behind it all. The unit about globalisation and TNCs that we explained in the last term will help you to understand this video. This documental is going to show you that we are all guilty of the actual situation but with different levels of responsability. The poor people because they wanted to reach other levels very quickly and in an unreal way....and the very rich because they wanted to be richer and richer no matter what....and they are not ready to help to fix the problem now. Have a look , click HERE and feel free to leave your comments.

Marking marking marking... 7A, 7B, 7C, 8A, 8B, 8C

Hi year 7s and 8s! I am using the weekend to mark your test. I will try my best but I will need more days during the week to finish off marking all. Thank you for your support and understanding! ;-)

Year 9... More about CHINA

During this term we are investigating physical and human geography of China. One of the issue we focused on was their economy. Here you have a newspaper article to increase your knowledge and update the information with recent problems this economy is going through. Have a quick look and could be useful as extra information for the test next week. Have a nice weekend! Click HERE or in the picture.

Video for all my students... A person not to be proud of :(

We all know that geography is more than knowing cities, rivers, mountains, etc by heart....but we must have a basic knowledge of geographical information. Most of our units from year 7 to year 11 are covering important information that makes us wiser and stronger in life to understand what is going on around us, not letting people to trick us and to create our own opinions based on that learning. The following video is quite embarassing and it is a good example to show you the importance of learning properly when you are in the school... because every little thing helps. You never know when it will be needed!!! This video is giving us a lesson . And no, I did teach in UK but I never tought this guy. ;-)

Year 8s... weather & climate

The last term we studied different issues about weather and climate. I want to remind you the importance of all the different topics that we cover in geography, because they help you to understand what is going on in our life. Here you have an interesting explanation about the "cold winter days" we are going through now. Have a look, read and refresh your mind. Click HERE or in the picture.

More for Year 7 about the Magna Carta

Hi Year 7s! As we are talking in HISTORY about King John and the Magna Carta, here you have some information about it so you can improve your knowledge about this issue. Click HERE or in the picture to find out more. Have a nice weekend!
