Altough we can’t see you anymore, we know you haven’t gone. All of us know that this isn’t the end. You are still alive in all our hearts. We can´t say that you aren't here, because it isn't true, the truth is that you are inside us.
Every morning when we wake up, we open our hearts to see you, and begin a new day with you in our minds, here, with us. Words can’t express how we feel. We are really sad, but we have to try going on, because we know that if you were here, you would like us to be as happy as you were. One day I heard that a person dies only when everybody has forgotten him, so I’m completely sure that ¨Ja¨ will live forever.
Right, it's time to evaluate how much you have learnt throughout the term. We are sure you already know a lot of vocabulary and grammar, but what about General Knowledge? How much do you know of Natural Science? Universal History? Geography? Try these short quizzes and prove it!! There are different levels, so do your best!General Knowledge 1 , General Knowledge 2 and General Knowledge 3 . Tell us your score and once you have finished, continue practising your English with any other wordgames.
Do you know this song? We remind you that this term is about to finish (está a punto de terminar) and we want to give you a chance in order to improve your marks. You have to listen to this song, then fill in the gaps and lastly, do the activities which you can see if you click here.
You can give us the activities both by hand or sending it to this e-mail.

As yesterday was Valentine’s Day, we thought we should look at the language of love, in particular, the verbs and prepositions of love! Of course, you all know that when you are lucky enough to meet that special someone, you fall in love (enamorarse); if you are really lucky, you may fall in love at first sight (enamorarse a primera vista)! If you spend all of your time with your loved one, your friends may say that you are crazy about him or her (tú estas loco/a por él /ella). Take care here, because if you say that someone is driving you crazy (alguien te va a volver loco, en sentido negativo), it means they make you really annoyed and angry! This is not a good phrase to use about your sweetheart (cariño, amor)! Did you know that before you fall in love, you might fancy someone? (podría gustarte alguien)This means that you like them a lot, and would like to know them a lot better! If you manage to get to know (llegar a conocer/conocer)the person you admire, you can go out on a date (quedar), and hopefully, you will get on well (llevarse bien). But, you may just have a crush on him or her (perder la cabeza por él/ella), which means that your feelings may change in time… You can also fall out of love (dejar de amar, desenamorarse), and in this case, you may break up (romper), or split up with (separarse de) your beloved (amado/a) (who then becomes your ex). But this is not a very good topic for Valentine’s Day! So if you have had an argument and fallen out (discutir), today of all days (justo hoy), you should try to make up with (reconciliarse con) the person who is close to your heart. As the custom on Valentine’s Day is to send cards or flowers, you have the perfect excuse to forgive and forget (perdonar y olvidar) whatever happened in the past, and make a fresh start! (empezar de nuevo)
Love is a wonderful topic we don't want to leave...snif,snif.... Would you like to translate the words or expressions in bold into Spanish? Thanks, my friends!!!
Hello, boys and girls!! Tomorrow will be a very special day: Saint Valentine’s Day…If you are in love, we're sure you’ll receive a lot of presents…We want you to learn new aspects about this celebration and this is why we’ve sought the following activities for you:
Last week there was a European blackout* for 5 minutes which , as it has been reported, didn't get enough success. This post tries to give a new chance to this initiative by calling all you up for a new BLACKOUT. This one will be tomorrow evening, 14 th February, from 22:55 to 23:00 h. At this time, almost everybody will be at home and we can turn every light OFF. Since it is Saint Valentine's Day, we can give Earth a sign ouf our great LOVE towards it. blackout* = apagón
Many people think that downloading videos from Youtube isn't possible. Well, it is completely false.Downloading your favourite videos from Youtube is as easy as clicking this link :You have to install NOTHING in your computer, so don't worry!!
Instructions: 1. You have to enter in the page of the video you want to download. (the Youtube page) 2.Copy the direction which appears in the "address bar" = (barra de direcciones) 3.Now, click in the page: http://vixy.net/flv_converter 4. Put the direction you had copied in the box in yellow, where you can write. 5. Now you only have to click in "Start". Then, it will ask you where do you want the video to be saved.
I think this can be really useful, for example when we have to show videos in some subjects in the school, and we can't use the internet to show them.I hope this will help you.
If you have any doubt write a comment asking it, will you?
Nothing is more important to a person than their name. It is a label we are given at birth and therefore can affect our personality as we grow up and become individuals. Do you get information about your teacher's personality?
This generator will take your real name and tell you what each letter of it means about your personality.
Do your own or do one for a friend or boyfriend/girlfriend!
When you have discovered what your name means, tell us if you agree with or you don't...We think it is a great way to learn more English adjectives!!
If you love The Simpsons and think you are similar to one of their characters...don't hesitate to click here and complete the test. Please, tell us the result!! Thanks.
As I see you aren't using the voicemail (maybe you are very shy, except for Sergio 1st D Bachillerato -thanks-) it has ocurred to me that you could record your favourite English song (obviously, the song must be sung by yourselves).
The rest of people has to guess the title, Ok? Who dares? Sue...We're waiting for you...I know you're a wonderful singer. Come on, everybody!!!
I don't know if you have noticed... yesterday afternoon I was changing the look of our blog. I was surfing on the web and I discovered plenty of resources to make it more attractive. Now, I need your opinion...The blog is perhaps so decorated(loud colours, animated gifs,...) that users may get tired and give up participating.
Could you answer any of these questions in order to improve it? Thanks for your time in advance.
Do you like the new voicemail? I haven't used it yet because I haven't got a microphone. I'd really like one of you to try it, otherwise we will never know if it is a good accessory or, on the contrary, it only takes room on the main screen. ( if you leave a message, just do it in English, please). I think it may be fun...
The calendar: the previous one was very sad (do you remember its grey colour?). When I discovered the new one, I decided to insert it in our blog...but now I don't know if the constant movement of the pictures can make people feel visually tired.
Our adopted pet (Txon): As I was having a look at blogosphere, I saw everybody had adopted a pet however, theirs always appears on the main screen. If you remember, ours is on a post in December...nobody can see it, and it's so nice...
The magic board: at the bottom of the screen, I have inserted a wizard who writes the message you want...I loved this idea!
The digital clock: In my opinion the new one is cool, but I am not sure...
Please, leave your opinion truly...You are the only person who can make this blog be special.
What about your English vocabulary? Do you want to improve it by playing? Here's a really fun game to play! It will test your vocabulary and make you think fast. There are 3 different Boggler games for you to choose from. Read the directions and look at the examples. Then choose the game you want to play. To play Boggler, you have 3 minutes to find as many words as possible in a square. All the letters have to be connected. You can go up, down, left, right, or diagonally. Just type your words in the box.
It's your turn! Challenge your friends to a game. Who's the best Boggler player in your class?
If you want to participate in this blog, write three new words you have learnt and their Spanish meaning (post a sentence as an example and you will get the best mark!!). This will be a fun way to learn vocabulary all together!! Enjoy yourself!!
Do you know how to play Quidditch? Do you know what a "Nimbus 2000" is? If you do, you must be a Harry Potter fan! People around the world are talking about the adventures of Harry Potter, the boy wizard! This a great Harry Potter website! You'll find lots of trivia games and word games to play. Click here: http://towerofenglish.com/harrypottergames.html
When you finish, don't forget to post a commentary expressing your opinion. Thanks a lot!!
