Good Bye 2014! Hi 2015!!!

Hi guys!!!

How are you spending your holidays? Are you having fun? Are you bored? Are you studying for your recuperation exams?
Well, as holidays are long, I guess you will have time for everything!

Are you getting ready for a New Year’s Eve party?   Are you going out on New Year’s Eve (31st December)? Will you have the ‘Lucky grapes’ at home? In ‘Puerta del Sol’, any other place? You can write something on the blog telling us how you are spending these days…
Did you decorate your houses? I did.

 This is what I’ve done so far (for the moment).I went to my parents’ house in the village to spend Christmas Eve (24th December) and Christmas Day (25th December). I went by train on 23rd December. I setThe crib’ or ‘Manger’ (this is the Nativity Scene; typical Spanish decorations at Christmas).




Here is a picture.
Do you like it? Do you set ‘The Crib’ in your houses? Post a picture and show it to me! And tell me what you are doing these holidays!

 On New Year’s Eve (31st December) I’m going to the village again. I’m going to have dinner with my parents and my partner. After dinner, we’ll have the grapes at home and then, we’ll go out for a drink with some friends.
What about you? What are your plans for the last night of the year?




      
On these videos you can see some Christmas traditions in different English speaking countries.
I would like to remember what we did in our last class of the year.
Our end of term project was a Radio News Programme. I didn’t get the audio for the ‘Current Affairs section’, could you please email it to blogslenjoy2014@gmail.com?

So, we opened the information with ‘Current Affairs’. Paco and Jorge were the reporters for this section. Well done. Current news as of that date 18th December 2014, were ‘The establishment of new relations between Cuba and the USA’, ‘How The Simpsons changed TV’ and the ranking of the top 30 millionaires in the world’.

David and Alejandro were in charge of the Sports section. They told us about basketball, formula one, Moto GP and …surprise, surprise, FOOTBALL!
Good for you, boys!

The girls, Andrea and Pilar, told us about Music. They told us about the Top Ten Hits of the week before Christmas and also ‘Five things we didn’t know about Ariana Grande’
Good job, girls. I liked your way of presenting the section. Unfortunately, our boys weren’t as quiet while you were recording as you had been when it was their turn!
New Year Resolutions? Respecting our classmates.

And, of course, ‘The ice of the cake’ (the top of everything, the final touch)’The Weather Forecast’ which was dealt with by…? Óscar, our weather boy!

Truth is that we have to improve pronunciation and intonation; but you made a great effort and you did fantastic research!  

We ended our last class of the year 2014 with our Games Awards winner…
ÓSCAR, congratulations!!!

We ran out of time (time finished) and we weren’t able to see the end of the film ‘Bend it like Beckham’. I’ll tell you the end: the girls were chosen to play in an American football team. The boy (the coach) was offered to train the men’s football team but he rejected (didn’t accept) the job and continued coaching the female’s team. The Indian parents of the girl, started to accept their daughter’s relationship with the Irish coach …and everybody lived happily forever after!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
