ALL HALLOWS'EVE

hello guys, this year I am not bringing any Halloween info to class (I think you've had enough spooks and ghosts and Jack o' Lanterns in your past years at the EOI ;-). My Advanced 1 students are going to enter a Halloween short- story contest (their stories will be taped to the walls of the classroom next week, if you Intermediate 2 guys are interested in reading them) and that's all. But for those of you who miss doing or learning something about Shamain (for this is the Celtic name by which it is known), why not try this online quiz .....:-)

USEFUL LINKS INTERMEDIATE 2

hi boys and girls, have a look at the links I posted last April (go to blog archives and open April) . If you follow them you will be able to practise listening comprehension, cloze tests etc...(remember that in order to get ready for the certificate at the end of this course coming to class twice a week is not enough ;-).

hi girls, boys, cheeky monkeys! How was your summer? I have been busy with exams ever since 1st September (as you know) and today I decided it was high time I posted something on the blog. Here are some pics I took in Edinburgh in August, while doing a course for teachers. You can see the Grassmarket area (the coloured houses), The Castle, Buildings along the Royal Mile (the pic taken against the light) ,The Old City (from a bridge that joins it to the new city)..and your teacher getting her certificate at the university ;-).Well, I will be off again for a few days , this time further North :-). I will post pics from that place too as soon as I am back ...see some of you next week and the rest in October.....take care!
