Cheating.....

I know, I know, you don´t cheat, you have never cheated and you never will, but I´m sure you have seen someone... in your former school... or you have heard from someone in another school, of course..., anyway, I want you to have a look at this video and give me your opinion.



1. Which ones would you say are the top three?
2. Which ones are the most popular?
3. Which ones would you say are useless?
4. Do you miss any other? Can you tell me? I won´t tell anyone ;)


All right, if you have been really sincere,I´ll also be with you and I´ll show the one which really works, remember that I have also been a student... (please, please, be careful with this piece of information!!!)

St. Valentine (II)

Love letter!

Yes, please, if you are in love, write your sweetheart a love letter; if you are not in love, just imagine you are and write him/her a love letter, or simply write the love letter you would like to receive. I know you are very sensitive under this appearance, if you don´t want the others to see you name, don´t write it, but tell me in class who wrote the letter.... Oooops, about 100 words, please!

St Valentine

I know, Iknow, most of you are reluctant about it, but it is a good occassion I can´t ignore again (last year I didn´t write about it), I would like you to write a "cyber-valentine card".

There is one legend that says that Saint Valentine, a patron Roman saint became a martyr for not giving up Christianity. He was laid to rest on the 14th of February in 269 A.D and since then, that day has become a day for lovers to celebrate. Some are of the opinion that along with refusing to forego Christianity, St. Valentine also denied to marry Christians in the church. It is also believed that on the day he died, he wrote out a note for his friend, the daughter of the jailor. The card read ‘From your Valentine’ and this led to the Valentines Day tradition of sending out cards signed off as from your Valentine to your loved ones. Others also say that he sent notes of affection to his followers, signing them "from your valentine". So the cards not only are adressed to your sweetheart, but also to your parents, best friend or even to your pet, and they are usually exchanged to classmates.

.....And this is what I want. I want you to write a cyber-valentine card, use the blogso as your platform and tell your valentine to come and visit to read, we can talk if you want to do it in an anonymous way ;)

Ginger bread houses

Christmas is coming. This is not surprising news, we all know. It is a time of the year full of many things, and one of these things is tradition. We all have traditions, in our family, in Seville, in Andalucía, in Spain, all over the world. One of the traditions in the Anglo speaking world is "ginger bread houses" I would like you to make a web search and write about this tradition. Describe it, tell the origins, write your comments but please, do not copy, try to write with your own words :)
