2º ESO: English Central


My 2º ESO students are going to work on a speaking & listening-based project through which I put them to a monthly test. They must reach the goals that I set every month by watching and speaking some videos. Thanks to this online tool they can improve enormously their oral skills in English. They can enrol their respective class by clicking on one of the following links:

Halloween: idioms of fear

Halloween lights

Hello folks. This time I am going to dare you guess the three idioms (expressions whose meanings can't be inferred from the meanings of the words that make them up) that this misterious man explains talking about Halloween. You should hand me a brief composition with a scary story using the three idioms and the past simple and past continuous tenses in it before Thursday 7th November. Don't forget to decorate the sheet of paper and write your name on it!  Click on the following link to watch the video.
