WEIRD INVENTIONS (2º BACH)


You know that in Unit 2 we are going to see lots of brilliant ideas that someone thought could be useful. Some of them are, but others are just way out there!

In this activity I want you to find a weird invention and tell us about it. To do so, you have to record yourselves , upload the video to OneDrive and share it with me. Try to find something out of the box and use the vocabulary seen to describe the invention. Remember to show the invention clearly, using a photo of it or showing it in a tablet / mobile phone... The description must include:

 1. Name of the invention.
 2. Its purpose
 3. Your opinion about it.

DEADLINE: 15th December

And remember that this activity will be part of your SPEAKING mark for the second term (30%).

Here you have a crossword to practise the expressions and adjectives you can use:

AND THE WINNERS ARE...

We know it's been a long wait for those students who have taken part in the Halloween Meme/Gif Competition this year, but we already know who the winners are...

BEST MEMES

There were some many good ideas that we have decided to choose two:


By Judit Garcia Vialás (2nd Bach)


By Rubén Rebordinos (1st Bach)

BEST GIF


By Mateo Cano (3rd ESO)

You can see all the memes and gifs (these last don't move, of course) in a panel installed in the multipurpose room.


Well done everybody and thank you for taking part in all the activities the English Deparment suggests!!
