Paleolithic and Neolithic Cave Paintings

These days we have been learning a lot of things about Prehistory and Ancient History. 

We like Prehistory very much, so we decided to create Cave Paintings during our Art Lessons.

These are the results:

Hello!

We are Milagros and Elena. We are in the Romero Peña school. We will tell you how to make a Neolithic painting:

Materials: A card, some sand, brown paint, a paintbrush, a sponge, glue and crayons.

1-With the sponge and the brown paint paint the card.

2-Extend the glue with the paintbrush and glue the sand.

3-Leave to dry the sand and paint some figures like the people in the Neolitic.

And...Here is it your Neolithic paint!

Our first contribution to the blog.

Hi everyone!
Here are some messages from my pupils in the first year of ESO. As you can see, they have been working on "Daily Routines" and they want to share their projects with you. Will you also share yours?
Bye!!

We are Carmen, Berta and María José and we are thirteen years old.

This is a picture of our work. We found it fun and interesting. We have laughed a lot doing it.

It’s very easy to learn the daily routines.

Bye!!.

Our names are Samuel, Juan, Juan Miguel, Raul Moreno and Tomas.  We are studying at Modesto Navarro high school. We are in the bilingual section. Now we are studying daily routines and verbs in the present simple. We found changing from primary to secondary school very weird but now we are adapting very well. A lot of us like English and other subjects too. Maria Jose teaches us English very well and sometimes translates things into Spanish. Anna Rose is also a very good English teacher.  Goodbye from Samuel, Tomas, Juan Miguel, Juan and Raul Moreno.

Hello! We are Rebeca,Javi,Julia,Fran and Gema.

We are 12 years old and we live in La Solana.

We study in 1º E.S.O. in Modesto Navarro's high school.  We are learning a lot of things such as present simple and new subjects such as social science and technology. Teachers here are funny and great but sometimes very strict.

In our class we have an English native, which helps us to learn English, she is very friendly and called Anna Rose.

A little bit about us:

-Rebeca plays the piano and the guitar in her free time. She usually goes out.

-Javi plays basketball and watches TV in his spare time.

-Julia plays the flute and she likes listening to music.

-Fran plays football and he often goes out .

-Gema plays the saxophone and the piano and she also enjoys going out.

We are students at the high school Modesto Navarro. We are in the European section. We like the bilingual section because we are learning a lot of English. Now, in English class, we are studying daily routines such as when we go to sleep, take a shower, have lunch etc... We are doing a project in groups. In our group there are five people:  Juan Luis,Raúl,Martín,Gregorio and I, Alejandro.

We are making cards and drawing pictures of the routines.

        Hi!, we are Cristina, Mari Carmen , Miriam and Alexandra. We are twelve years old. We are students at the Modesto Navarro high school. We are in the first year of the High School.

   Hello!

We are Alicia, Keren & Clara. We are 12 years old. We are from La Solana. We study at the I.E.S Modesto Navarro.

Doing the project was funny and we show how our mornings are.

Hi my name is Domingo José and I recommend you that you should join to the European Section of I.E.S. Modesto Navarro, because is an experience that you should try. In fact, I was the two firsts years in not bilingual and was in other classes and it seemed Vietnam and the students were getting very bad marks. Only I and other two got good marks. So in the third year, I decided enter in bilingual because saw that the students (the majority) were good students of good marks. So if you can chose bilingual section, chose it please. Is a great form of learn and can be someone in the life.

Pd: my form of talk is a few colloquial because is in bilingual section two years so I have few experience than my friends.

Hi! My name is Irene and I´m 15 years old.
I´m studying in my forth year in bilingual section.
I study maths and history in english but in the last years I study more subjects in english such as music, art, technology, ...
When you come to high school the first course is normal that you decrease your marks because it is a change.
My advice is : you must study more than in the school and if at the beginning you don´t understand nothing, don´t get discouraged and go on.

Hello, My name is Jesús and I´m studying in the European Section of Modesto Navarro's High school.
I´m going to talk about my experience in this section:
I´m in the European Section because I like English. This subject is very useful
if you want to go away in the future for studies or for whatever you like.
At the beginning, English was difficult for me. I didn't understand what teacher said,
so I had to go to another academy. Affortunatelly, these problems dissapeared, and now
I am very proud for being an European Section's students.
I recommend you and i'm sure that you'll like it
