Life

Each one has his or her own beliefs regarding the meaning of life. I think, I am sure, every one is here for a definite purpose.
Each person is special and valuable; that refers to me, you, your family,friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on this planet and there is no such thing as coincidence. Whether you call it fate for destiny, I don't believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.While we reflect on this, let´s share something very close to our soul

THE SIX GHOSTS STORIES



Our oral tradition of telling ghost stories, with which most students are familiar, builds a useful bridge to the oral tradition of the ancient epic narrators. In this lesson, which includes support for English language learners, students connect to epic storytellers by sharing their own oral tales of ghosts and goblins and monsters.

FRANKESTEIN

Frankenstein is considered to be the greatest Gothic Romantic Novel. It is also generally thought of as the first science fiction novel. I have always been impressed and amazed by the fact that Mary wrote this novel when she was eighteen years old.
What experiences and powers of imagination led to such an innovative and disturbing work?
What can you say about the writer and about her work?
What do you think about the Monster as a living being?
Write your opinion about this reader.Tell some ideas and impressions you had when you interacted with the book?What were your difficulties if you had any? What do you find interesting in this reader?

Getting to know each other

One of the most interesting and rewarding things we teachers find when we meet new groups is the idea of knowing new people.All of them with different points of view about life, about the world and even more,different perceptions about what they want to be and construct in the group they belong to.
That´s why as a whole group we decided to open this space to express our own ideas and to share all the knolwdge we acquire in this new language.
Now, we are going to take some time to tell you about each one of us.Let´s share what we are and what we know.

Frankestein

WHAT ABOUT THE MONSTER?

Frankestein has been one of the most interesting books as it was written by a woman who described a sciencific experiment done with human beings.
