2010-08-27T16:06:00.006+02:00

SPANISH-DANISH LINK

2009-04-13T21:29:00.003+02:00

As part of the Comenius project I'm involved in, the Danish and the Spanish partners have decided to get to practice both English and Spanish first through "ning" and next year, if possible, through an exchange between students from both countries. Sounds great!!! You can have a look at our social network and you can even offer some contributions.

INTELLIGENT HUMOUR

2008-04-05T16:13:00.009+02:00

Gary Larson is one of my favourite cartoonists. His sense of humour is very peculiar and mordantly hilarious. This is one of his famous comic strips from "The Far Side". If you want to get a hint on his sense of humour you can click on the link under the picture, or even better... buy any of his brilliant books.

One of the most frequently asked questions by my pupils is why some English words are so similar to French. Well, as I haven´t got much time during my lessons to explain the influence of the Norman Conquest in Britain, I´ve decided to do it through this blog.
I´ve found a great site in which you can find out plenty of things about the Norman Conquest and its influence in a very easy and enjoyable way.
