Christmas is the best part of the year because we have presents.

At christmas we go skiing and snowboarding. All the mountains have snow!

The 24th December is our favorite day because we have dinner with all the family and in the morning of the 25th December we take the presents and we go out.

CHRISTMAS

We love christmas, because we are on holidays, and we have a lot of presents.

Our fauvorite days are the 24th, 31st December and the 6th of January.

The 31st: We like this day, because at night we play with the fireworks.

The 24th and 6th January:We like these days because we have a lot of presents.

But we hate the 9th January because the school is about to start again.

In christams some of us are going skiing, others go on holidays. That's beautiful. We like "turron" so we eat a lot, but we don't get fat. Why? We don't know why! and that's the best!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

EXTRA WORK TO GET POSITIVE POINTS FOR THE 2nd TERM!

Hi students!

How are you doing? I guess you are feeling great knowing that a long weekend is waiting for you!

So, as I don´t want you to get bored, here you are some easy task to do in exchange of positive points!

I imagine you all love music, but, I´m sure not all of you like the same kind of music, the same singers, songs and so on.

Why don´t you write a few lines about a song you find amazing, a group or a singer?

Then, I will take your comments into account and I will try to prepare listening activities with those songs you like most, I think this can be fun!

Now, I leave you the song we listened to on Monday in class 2.B and that we are going to listen to today in class 2.A. WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL is a rather new song, by a boy band called ONE DIRECTION. This is a really positive song that can cheer us up in these gloomy days! don´t you think so?

Enjoy it!!!

And remember, if you want positive points write a comment on this post telling me about a song, a group or a singer you like!!! You´ve got till tuesday for that! ;)

Have fun!

My favourite TV programme

I like American TV programmes like "Cita con mamá" in MTV, but my favourite TV programme is El Barco and it´s Spanish. El Barco is a very interesting TV programme. There are love, funny and scare scenes.

It is about people who are on a boat and they are alone in the world.(they think that).

The protagonist are Mario Casas, Blanca Suarez... I love Mario Casas because he does lots of things and he also is very sexy.

I love Blanca Suarez too, she is a very good actress and she always does funny and interesting things.

In my opinion El Barco is the best TV programme and I recommend it to people. They need to watch because it´s amazing.

Your face sounds familiar

My favourite TV programme is your face sounds familiar (Tu cara me suena). Is a mixture of reality show and music programme. The presenter is Manel Fuentes and the jury are Angel Llacer, Monica Naranjo, Carolina Cerezuela, Carlos Latre and usually a guest star. The channel of this programme is antena 3 and the programme starts on Wednesdays at half past ten.

The rules are these:

There are 8 participants:

-Angy Fernandez

-Carolina Ferre

-Francisco González

-Josema Yuste

-Julio Iglesias, Jr.

-Santiago Segura

-Sylvia Pantoja

-Toñi Salazar

They have to imitate singers. There are galas and the winner of each gala, takes 3.000€ for charity.

In my opinion this programme is very funny and very musical. And the best is that it is for all the family!

Halloween

Halloween is a great day for parties. Children dress up as mummies, vampires... Then, they go from house to house playing TRICK or TREAT.

Halloween means Hallows´ Evening. It is the evening before All Hallows´ Day, a Christian holiday, celebrated on the 1st of Novenber. Celtic peoples celebrate the festival of Shamhuinn, which marked the begining of winter and the Celtic New Year.

I like halloween because I love dressing up as witches, vampires...

At the evening we go from house to house, beggining for sweets. Inded, that´s the origin of TRICK or TREAT.
