A useful tool

I want to show you a place where you can get any text translated word by word. Its name is LINGRO and it is very easy: when you enter LINGO you write the address of the webpage you want to translate, choose the language and wait for a few seconds, afterwards you can click on any word you don't know and it will be inmediately translated, you can even listen to its sound. Fantastic! I've found it thanks to a colleague's blog. Thank you Carmen!

Present Perfect

You can download the presentation I have used to explain this tense.You only have to click on the "b" you can see at the left bottom of the presentation, it sends you to the page where you can download it. It is easy!
You can also practise the tenses we have seen by clicking on the right side bar under "To practise what we have worked" and looking for the tense you want to practise. Don't forget to study the rules for the test on Tuesday.

Hello my new students!

Welcome to my blog. As you can see it tries to give you a little help with your English learning. I will explain how it works in class because I think it can be useful for you to find more resources to practise your english in a funny way.

Bye, dear Elcano students

My time as a teacher there is over. Thank you very much for helping me to enjoy my job, it has been wonderful to work with you all for these twenty years. You have been the best part of my job, sometimes it has been a challenge to get you motivated but when I got it, you really made me happy.
My new school is IES Mediterráneo and I will be there at your disposal, as usual. It’s exciting to have a new project ahead: after so many years working in the same school.
Remember this is also your blog and I hope you will keep taking part in it whenever you want. It’s always a pleasure to read your comments, they feed the blog and help me to improve it.

Thank you again, my dear students!

Rosanna's recipe

This a recipe Rosanna gave me last week, Victoria sponge cake, I've made it following her instructions and the result was fantastic, I recommend it to you all to celebrate the end of the classes.
Ingredients:
112g of unsalted butter or margarine (I prefer butter)
112g of flour with a teaspoon of baking powder
112g of sugar
2 eggs.
Preheat the oven to 180º. Grease two cake tins (15cm) with butter.
Stir the butter and sugar together. Stir the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the flour with the baking powder. Divide the cake mix into the tins and bake in the oven for around 20 minutes. Allow the cakes to cool slightly, then take them out of the tins to cool completely.
For the filling stir together 50g of butter and 100g of icing sugar. Spread some jam onto one of the cakes and the buttercream on the other, then sanswich them together.
Easy, isn't it?

Relax and amuse yourself!

Oregon quiz

Now try this quiz and check how much you have learnt about this wonderful state, and then let me know, as usual.

Oregon, a marvellous state

Have you ever heard about Oregon? It is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The area was inhabited by many indigenous tribes before the arrival of traders, explorers and settlers. Spanish explorers sight the Oregon Coast in 1543 and it became the 33rd USA state on February 14, 1859. Oregon is located on the Pacific coast between Washington to the north, California to the south, Nevada on the southeast and Idaho to the east.The valley of the Willamette River in western Oregon is the most densely populated. Oregon enjoys a diverse landscape including a scenic Pacific coastline, the volcanoes of a glaciated Cascade Mountain Range, dense evergreen forests, the country's deepest lake, Crater Lake, and high desert across much of the eastern portion of the state.
