3 THINGS & AN ISLAND

What would you take with you to a desert island?

Imagine you could ONLY take 3 things.

You would probably pick 3 objects with a very especial meaning for you.


That is exactly what Edenia and Julia decided to do when they were caught in a traaffic jam. They got a bit "philosophical", truly thoughtful.

But, what did they choose and why?

They explain everything in this video.



Even a sleepover can be a good opportunity to talk about this.

Abril, Noelia and Tess decided on very different objects. Watch them and imagine the ones you would choose.



A HORROR STORY

A forest...

Darkness...

Cold...

Rain...

Strange sounds...

An abandoned old mansion...


What started as a lovely walk in the woods, turned out to be their worst nightmare.

Edgar and Adrià wanted to spend a relaxing day in the contryside.

However, things did not happen exactly as they had expected.

Watch and feel the fear...


THE BEST PLAN

Surely it is hard to beat.

Joel and Adrià's weekend came full of surprises...

Do you want to learn more?

Then, watch this:

                                                   THE BEST PLAN

MY FAMILY AND MY HOUSE

Some of our 1st Year students would like you to meet their families and the place where they live.


In these videos they introduce their parents and siblings and they walk us around their houses, real or imaginary.


Let's meet Elsa.

                                                 ELSA'S HOUSE



This is Marc.



Finally Abril tells us her story.

NO-TEEN!!!

Three years ago we embarked on a new adventure...

Our first students' magazine in English at INSNO.

We called it "NO-TEEN!!!"

NO for our school's name - Narcís Oller

TEEN because all our reporters and contributors are teenagers, and...

NO-TEEN!!! because it sounds a bit like naughty.

And, yes, we all love being a little naughty.


So far we have published six issues. Not even the lockdown could stop us.


At present we are working on the 7th publication, which we hope will be out some time around May.

Students of our 2nd and 3rd years ESO and 1st year Batxillerat are creating the contents.

If you want to learn more about the past issues, you will find the link below this picture.


We hope you enjoy them!!

FL WORKSHOP AT INSNO



Let us introduce to you a new experience we have just started. 

A workshop devoted to the creation of useful resources for the foreign language class, in English, French and German. 
Some of the teachers in our department plus teachers at other schools have been working together since October'18.
This is a joint effort by this group of teachers aimed at creating, improving, up-dating and sharing tasks to promote communication at all levels in and out the language class taking advantage of the possibilities ICT offers us all.






As you can imagine this is an activity in progress as we plan to keep on working for some years on it.
The project involves the use of many different new tools and an active role of our students.
You can follow the development of the tasks, their assessment and the final products and results of the experience at:



We plan to create activities to promote the reading and listening comprehensions and the oral and written productions in connection to the readers we are working on at each level, the oral tasks we regularly produce during the school year and many other little projects connected to cultural issues, our school magazine in English and celebrations and festivities.

This first year of the experience we are producing materials for 1st, 2nd and 3rd years ESO. We intend to cover the 6 years of ESO and Batxillerat in future editions of the workshop.


It will also involve so many different topics that many of the tasks include CLIL contents.

Listen to the story from the "horse's mouth".

FLOWER OF SCOTLAND...


An animated explanation of some fundamental questions prior to the referendum on Scottish independence on 18th September, 2014. 

Where is Scotland, what is Scotland and what does it mean to be Scottish? 
And what is the history of Scotland's relationship with England? 

But the real question is, will Scotland be better off as an independent country?




Now decide if the statements in the worksheet are True or False 



A little explanation about economics

  

And now the words of an expert analyst




And a question of fashion and desing...
