Project & Presentation Year 7s


We have a few lessons left before the end of this last term. As I explained to you in the lesson, we will follow the example of "Exploring UK" to work in our project about "Exploring Spain". In every lesson you will need to bring information from home about Spain using the same issue that we will find about UK .
(for example: 5.1 Your Island home, you will need to look for similar information about Spain (Iberian peninsula) Physical geography, physical maps of Spain, mountains, rivers, data and pictures related with these issues).
This is a great opportunity to show me different skills (research, organisational, interpersonal) and to become a teacher in your presentation. Do not forget to include all issues I have been asking you to cover. (eg. physical geography such as weather, climate, relief, mountain, rivers, valleys, etc...and human geography such as population, economy, politics, regions, etc)

You are going to be working as a team, so it is expected everybody working well, bringing information and following teacher's advice and instructions.

The presentations for all year 7s will be in June (12/06/12) and each team will have 10 minutes to develop it all.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.

Changes in Year 9s test about TOURISM

We have a special event next Wednesday (16 / 05 / 12). You have been organising teams for the "Olympics", a competition to be hold in Villalba. For that reason our test about TOURISM should be changed and moved to the following lesson. So it means we will do the TEST about TOURISM on Thursday (17 / 05 / 12 ). I do not want to hear any complaint about the new day, as it was caused by reasons out of my control. Thank you and good luck!

Spring Fair 2012

Thank you to all the people involved in our year 9B stall. You know who you are, but let me send special thank you to Carol's mother for the hand made bookmarks, "Andreas" for their ribbons against cancer and Mihail's sister doing incredible face paintings. And all the other parents and students that brought so many different stuff and products which were sold quickly. We reached 100 Euros in total (just in our stall !!!). I will keep you posted with the final figure obtained in the whole Spring Fair. "Asociación Española contra el Cáncer" is going to be very proud of you all...as much as I am already! Thank you all!!!
