Excuse me, How much is..?


 Students of Gestión Administrativa-Socorro, did a speaking activity about asking how much is ____? In groups of two they have to play with numbers using plus, minus, times and divided by. The purpose is to keep practicing numbers, check pronunciation, how to make questions and how to respond to that. I was impressed because they built big numbers like 234.890.113 . They were really good at that and we just had much fun using some flash cards!

Don´t be a muppet!


Salud Ocupacional INPEC practice their knowledge with Muppets to explain the importance of the attitude when someone is looking for a job using only what they have learnt and indeed they did a very good job.

Describing my dreamy house!




During this activity students were making use of diverse English structures and prepositions to describe their dreamy houses. In the first place and in groups of four people, students had to build up a house using different recyclable materials, then, after a listening comprehension exercise; they had to make a video in which they not only showed their houses, but also described them. Students used forms in English such as “there is and there are” as well as propositions to pinpoint objects inside a house.
