UNIT 2: THEN AND NOW (2nd ESO)

Do you like history and learning about the past? Then you will be a fan of museums. Before you start working, take some time to explore the fascinating British Museum:

This unit is about contrasting the past with the present. As always, we start studying some new vocabulary: EVERYDAY OBJECTS. Try this matching activity to revise it:

In the reading, we learn about how The Aztecs, one of the most ancient civilizations in the world, changed the world. If you are curious and want to learn more about them, we have the perfect video for you:

Now, you should take some time to revise the PAST of the verb TO BE and THERE WAS/THERE WERE. Here you have some practice:

EXERCISE 1

WORKSHEET

You can also test yourselves with this 

KAHOOT

You need to revise or study the modal verb COULD, to talk about past abilities. Just click on the word to see how it works and do some practice.

When talking about the past, PAST TIME EXPRESSIONS are essential, try this EXERCISE to practise them.

The next step is to learn about LIFE EVENTS. If you can answer this QUIZ, it means you have no problems with this vocabulary 😉!

Time to learn the PAST SIMPLE and practise it:

EXERCISES

Want to practise it in a more fun way? Try this game, it's an escape room activity and in a museum!! Just click on the picture to start the adventure...

Finally, we studied how to talk about past habits and states, with USED TO. Again a game can help you practise it but in a fun way:

USED TO GAME

The writing of the unit is AN EMAIL TO AN E-PAL. You can find some more tips here:

AN EMAIL TO A NEW FRIEND

That was a lot of work, wasn't it? Here you have another game (and related to the past) to keep practising your English and to have fun at the same time 😉:

 

INSTITUTIONAL PROJECT 4th ESO: Visit to Oviedo, the Fine Arts Museum and Tour of "La Regenta"

On 29th October,  students in 4th ESO went on a school trip to Oviedo. There, they learnt many things about the city, the artworks in the Fine Arts Museum,  the story of the magnificent book written by Leopoldo Alas Clarín, "La Regenta" and the places in the city where the novel took place. 

They had some extra work for the English class: individually or in pairs, they had to prepare a video explaining some of the things they had learnt to an imaginary friend in the UK. Thus, they would practise their mediation skills. 

Here you have some of the best videos made by students. We asked them to be creative and they really were!

Take some time to watch them; you will probably learn something new about the city! We did!
