No more Kings!

Hi everyone,

It'll be Thanksgiving in a few days so here's a fun video to show you how it all started: a short summary of the history of the Pilgrim's 1620 landing of the Mayflower (Dec 11/21 depending on your calendar) and the American colonies break from English King George 3rd's rule.

See you in class!

Neil Armstrong One Small Step

Hi 1ºB Students!

Today we talked about people who are or were famous because of their long journeys: explorers, conquerors and astronauts! I would have loved to be one of them,

In 1969 Neil Amstrong became the first person to set foot on the Moon -or so they say... Here's his famous quote "A small step for man, a giant leap for mankind"

Macbeth's witches

This is the spell the three witches prepare, round and round the cauldron go...

Casting a spell

Wouldn't you just like to cast a spell on the one you love? Try the spells, some of them might work...it depends if you really believe they will...

"Call Me" Spell
You will need:

A piece of parchment or fine quality writing paper
A black marker
A needle
Using your marker, inscribe the name of the person you want to call, on the paper. Write it in a circle twice, so the ends meet.
As you do this, concentrate on the person's face and your desire that they call you.
While still concentrating, put a needle through the center of the circle created by the name.
Place the charm by the phone.
The call will come within 5 minutes, 5 hours, or 5 days, depending how well the spell was cast!

Easy Love Spell
This spell is easy- just say the following words and concentrate on the one you love:

"Earth and Sea,
Keep harm from me.
Wind and Fire,
Bring my desire."

Finding Spell
Concentrate on thinking about the thing that you lost, then say these words:

"Bound and binding, binding Bound,
See the sight, hear the sound.
What was lost, now is found,
Bound and binding, binding bound."

Kiss Me Spell
This is a spell that is supposed to get your crush to kiss you!
You will need:

A red candle
A white piece of paper
A red-colored lipstick or a glittery pink one
Light the red candle (be careful).
Draw a lip print on the white piece of paper.
Hold the paper over the candle and think of the person you want to kiss you.
Visualize you both kissing and falling in love, while you chant:
"Kiss me when we meet,
Kiss me (lovers full name),
Greet me with your lips and say you missed me,
But most of all kiss me."

Hi everyone!

So I thought a blog would be a great idea, and here we are!

On my first post I want to say something about myself. I am crazy about technology and computers. The web is my number one hobby: Blogs, epals, webquests, voice threads and so on are great tools we can use to improve our teaching and have fun, interesting classes.

From now on I will post a weekly message telling you about school news, fun things you can find on the web and important information about our classes: homework, exams, quizzes, etc.

See you tomorrow. Enjoy your evening!



Who said grammar wasn't fun?
