The codes will take you to short biographies of 5 important people.






The aim of this exercise is  to answer the questions in the different sections of the GOOGLE FORM inserted in this post.

You can work in pairs if you prefer.


Make sure you read the questions well because you only have the time of a lesson so you have to be quick and scan only for the information needed.

Your answers will be marked, so be careful!

When you send the questionnaire, you won´t be able to correct it. You can only answer the questionnaire ONCE.

WINNERS OF EUROPEAN DAY OF LANGUAGES CONTEST

At the Council of Europe´s initiative, the European Day of Languages has been celebrated every year  since 2001 on 26 September.

With the conviction that linguistic diversity is the best tool for achieving greater cultural understanding, the English Department of our school conmmemorates this day with the annual organization of a contest.

This year, participants had to face the difficulty of False Friends in different languages. The contest was run on Edmodo, a format which, according to numbers,  was obviously more attractive to students and teachers.

Yesterday, the ten participants who managed to match all the words with their correct meanings were called to the Principal office to get their prizes and/or their certificates.

WINNER :  JORGE DE LA IGLESIA - 1st Year Bachillerato
