CREATIVE WRITING

Today we all practice Writing. We are going to follow the model provided in AB page 79 to write a story. If we count the words in the model, we can see it has 97 words. That is, more or less, the length your story mut have.

The story needs to be written in about 100 words (not many more, not many less). It must have at least three paragraphs (beginning, middle and end) and the title must be A beautiful dream.

Avoid starting your story right away, without thinking. Remember it is always a good idea to create a plan first. .We start by writing some notes in the page given:

Plan and rubric page

We are going to use English and Science Lessons so that everyone can write a draft, show it to Megan or to me first. 

Then you can rewrite it without mistakes on a new page which you can illustrate and decorate. Here you have a template.

Template final version Beautiful Dream

Later, can create our own book of beautiful dreams to present during the Book week in April.

FICHA FELICIDAD PERSONAL

LA ESCALERA DE MI FELICIDAD

Antes de empezar con una unidad nueva, esta semana vamos a hacer una serie de juegos, por grupos, que tiene relación con los contenidos que hemos visto / vamos a ver en Valores.

 

Preparación Pruebas externas de inglés

Esta semana vamos a dedicarnos a preparar los exámenes de Cambridge PET y KET, con el fin de familiarizarnos con este tipo de pruebas que certifican un nivel B1 y A2, respectivamente, del Marco Común Europeo de Referencia para el aprendizaje de las Lenguas.

Todavía no sabemos cuándo van a ser ni quién  será el organismo encargado de los exámenes. Hasta el curso pasado siempre fue Cambridge. El curso pasado, dos meses antes de la realización de las pruebas, supimos que cambiaban a una nueva compañía llamada Language CERT. 

Disponemos de modelos de pruebas de las dos compañías y las utilizaremos alternativamente.

Esta semana 6º B practicará LISTENING el lunes y READING el miércoles y 6º A practicará LISTENING el martes y READING el jueves. El viernes todos practicaremos WRITING.

PREPARATION A2  and B1

This week we are going to practice Cambridge tests PET and KET, in order to get familiar with the external evaluations for A2 and B1.

We still don't know when they will take place or which company will be carrying them out. Until last year, Cambridge has been the institution responsible for them, but last year, two months before the tests, we knew they were going to bemade by Language CERT.

We are going to practice both Cambridge and Language Cert models alternatively.

Our language assistants will practice SPEAKING tests with you following both models.

This week 6º B will practice LISTENING on Monday and  READING on Wednesday and 6ºB will practice LISTENING on  Tuesday and READING on Thursday. On Friday, both groups will practice WRITING
