Hello! Kia ora! Hola!

I am Emily and I am from New Zealand. I am 21 years old and have recently graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and Spanish.

I am very lucky because the Ministry of Education in Spain has given me a placement in Navàs at Sant Josep school to help the children learn English.

This blog is for all the children and their families, the Ministry of Education, for the people at home and anyone else who is interested!

Our aim over the next six months is to help improve the students with their oral and conversational English.

But I will start from the beginning...

Little Red Riding Hood Wednesday Class

Here is the video of one of the lunchtime classes I do on Wednesdays. We had a lot of fun with Little Red Riding Hood, enjoy!

VOKI´s

In 6é I have made VOKI´s with the students. This was a lot of fun, you can see everyones VOKIs under their names at this link http://www.wallwisher.com/wall/6evokis.

You can all make your own account and make VOKI´s at home and practice your English! How cool!

The month of May 2011

Well it is nearly time to say goodbye to Navàs. It will be a sad day. But we have had a lot fun and I have made many new friends.

Did you know that in New Zealand the month of May is New Zealand music month, this means we celebrate and promote music made in and by New Zealanders, you can find more information at the link below:
 

In classes we have continued practising Flyers and Movers exams so Fina & I hope that the children will be ready to sit their speaking exams soon! 

Let´s have lots of fun and I know we are looking forward to summer-time and holidays!

2 May - 5 May 2011

This was another fun week, Spring fever is in the air as there was the Spring fair in the weekend.
This week I started making VOKI´s with the Year 6, when it is finished we will hang them up for everyone to see. I showed the classes a short ad from NZ and afterwards had them describe what they could remember, take a look here

Also, it was my birthday on 5 May and the school gave me a big surprise! They waited out in the school playground and surprised me singing Happy Birthday, there were lollies and cake and cards and a lot of love, I was very happy, THANK YOU to everyone!

Only 3 weeks left to go, it is hard to believe!

Until next week... BYE!
