The groups of 3th ESO are watching "The secret garden". It's a film adapted from a novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett published in 1911. It is now one of Burnett's most popular novels, and is considered to be a classic of English children's literature. The plot is very simple but gripping and moving.

Sonja Bricker, an American teacher in Colmenar

Yesterday, the students from 2º and 3º level were given the opportunity to attend a conference by Sonja Bricker, an American teacher of Spanish in Seattle, Washington. She is travelling around Andalusia by bike and shared her experience with us. We learnt about teenagers' life in the USA, and later on, she interviewed some of your classmates to use those interviews as material for her students to learn some things about your life in Spain. We think it was very enriching experience for you to have the chance to listen to a native English speaker. Write your comments. We want to know what you think about it.
 If you want to have a look at her website, this is the link to her blog: http://spainwithsonja.blogspot.com

For those who want to practice the modal verbs...Try and learn the lyrics by heart. This unit will be easier for them, absolutely!!

The clash- Should I stay or should I go



Darling you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

Always tease tease tease
You're happy when I'm on my knees
One day is fine, next day is black
So if you want me off your back
Well come on and let me know
Should I stay or should I go?

Should I stay or should I go now?
Should I stay or should I go now?
If I go there will be trouble
An' if I stay it will be double
So come on and let me know!

This indecision's bugging me
Esta indecision me molesta
If you don't want me, set me free
Si no me quieres, librame
Exactly whom I'm supposed to be
Dime que tengo que ser
Don't you know which clothes even fit me?
¿sabes que ropas me quedan?
Come on and let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should I cool it or should I blow?
¿me debo ir o quedarme?

Split!
Yo me enfrio o lo sufro

Should I stay or should I go now?
yo me enfrio o lo sufro
Should I stay or should I go now?
yo me enfrio o lo sufro
If I go there will be trouble
Si me voy - va a haber peligro
And if I stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Pero me tienes que decir
Should I cool it or should I go?
yo me enfrio o lo sufro

Should I stay or should I go now?
yo me enfrio o lo sufro
If I go there will be trouble
Si me voy - va a haber peligro
And if I stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Pero me tienes que decir
Should I stay or should I go?
