2º BACH MOVIE TRAILERS ( Group B)

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen  film critics ;-)! Here you have the 5 movie trailers of the films you selected last Friday. Watch them carefully, decide what film you would like to see in order to write the film review afterwards. Then click on the WRITING section for instructions about the written work you have to hand in. There you'll find a document giving you tips for writing. Use the Writing guide from your textbook too

Ready? Have fun watching the films in OV, choose subtitles if you need them. I recommend you to take notes of the points in the film that you consider strong or weak ( soundtrack, plot, acting, photography, visual/special effects...). Please, try to watch the film during the weekend and be ready to write an outline on Monday.

Welcome Back

Hi everyone!
Welcome to the English Department Blog. My name is Aránzazu Sánchez Navarro and I will be your English teacher this school year and the manager of this blog. Either you are new at our school or an “experienced”EALO student , let me introduce you to this new resource that I am sure will help you take active part in the English class.

What kind of blog is it?

Here you will find a place to contribute with your ideas ( in English), give your opinion, know about others viewpoints…it’s a site where different videos, songs and articles  regarding the english speaking world will be posted, and about which we expect your comments.
It is also a resource bank , look for the columns under the blog title and feel free to browse over the different categories ( dictionaries, listening practice, exam certifications...)

I hope you find it an interesting corner to ask questions about the topic posted, or language questions that I will be happy to answer.

What if I still do not trust my English skills?

Everyone has an opinion and  brilliant ideas about different topics. It does not matter if you commit mistakes while writing, just share and communicate. If you never try , you`ll never know!

So, no homework or projects implied?

Well… there will be some tasks you will be asked to do using the blog, usually fun ones, like listening to a song or watch a video. Some of them will be considered "class participation" or "homework" Remember, it is also a resource bank, 

So , is that it?
Suggestions are always welcome . We are opening a suggestion box soon in order to collect your ideas on new topics, news,  or songs you would like to listen to and share , anything you think that can be worth reading, watching or listening to. As long as it implies using the english language :-)
