2013 IES VECINDARIO ACADEMY AWARDS
Hi and welcome back!
Here we are again. Christmas holidays are over and we are back full of energy and willing to become movie stars!! Yes, the Oscars ceremony is getting nearer and my students of 1ºbachillerato are preparing different film scenes as a speaking exercise for this second term. It's a really motivating way of encouring them to speak and act while having fun! And who knows? Maybe the next Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie may come out from this wonderful experience! Have a look at the following document and follow the instructions:
