El pasado jueves 9 de abril, los alumnos de inglés  tuvieron la oportunidad de conocer a Catherine Frankum, una neozelandesa de visita en Plasencia. Gracias a ella , pudimos escuchar un acento diferente. No sólo practicamos inglés; también aprendimos sobre su cultura e incluso bailamos la famosa “Haka”. Una vez más los alumnos reconocieron que aprender inglés es divertido.Learning English is fun! Don´t you agree?

Your teachers also need to practice English, so they often take courses to improve their oral skills. Thanks to “Inmerlex”, a couple of us spent a weekend in Garrovillas de Alconetar together with other teachers from Extremadura and five native-English speakers. Here is the proof.

Our students at the bilingual section do their best at decorating  a spooky Halloween corner at school to frighten everyone.

“WITCH-ING YOU A  BOO-TIFUL HALLOWEEN!!!”

CELEBRATING LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY, PLURILINGUISM AND LIFELONG LANGUAGE LEARNING

“Artistas solidarios placentinos” will be performing their musical “Goodbye, Beatles, Goodbye” at Teatro Alkázar on Friday, 19 September. Live music, singing and acting all about the Liverpool quartet.

Scots are about to take the biggest decision of their lives in 300 hundred years, a vote on Independence from the U.K.
The referendum question will be “Should Scotland be an independent country?”. Voters can only answer yes or no.
All residents in Scotland aged 16 or over can vote, that means over 4 million people.
Recent statistics show that yes might win.
While British PM David Cameron keeps fighting to avoid secession, Alex Salmond, the Scot leading the battle for independence, thinks the Brits are panicked.
Let me remind you that Scotland together with England, Wales and Northern Ireland form the United Kingdom of Great Britain. If yes wins, that will change forever.
Whatever happens, the future of Scotland is in Scotland´s hands.

  The aim of this blog is to offer you a different tool to keep in touch with English while enjoying one of your favourite activities, the Internet. All the teachers at the bilingual section and others who would like to collaborate will be posting here resources and information related to the topics studied at school. Of course, most of it, if not all, will be in English!!! But don´t panick! We won´t be evaluating you on that. It´s just for fun!

We hope you´ll find it useful and entertaining. If it also helps you to improve your English, we´ll be delighted.

Feel free to surf whenever you like and if you have a good idea to add, please share it with us.

Thanks.

El pasado 17 de junio, nuestros alumnos de 1º ESO de la sección Bilingüe visitaron la Finca que Placeat tiene en la localidad de San Gil.

Las temáticas en las que se centró esta jornada fueron Sensibilidad e Interpretación de la Discapacidad Intelectual, Medio Ambiente, Deportes y Juegos y por último todo ello con el idioma inglés de fondo.

Tenéis más información en la noticia recogida en la web de Placeat. Además, hemos incluído algunas fotos en nuestra Galería fotográfica.
