What's the weather like today? (1º E y 1º F Básicos)

What's the weather like today?
Today is sunny, today is suuny, today is a sunny day!
Today is windy, today is windy, today is a windy day!
Today is rainy, today is rainy, today is a rainy day!
Today is snowy, today is snowy, today is a snowy day!

Con esta sencilla canción los alumnos del 1º E y 1º F del Liceo Domingo Santa María aprendieron los climas que un día puede tener en inglés.
Destaco mucho la participación de todos, las ganas de cantar y el buen oído musical que tienen para haberse aprendido tan rápidamente la canción.
Congratulations boys and girls!

Breakfast and Lunch 2º Básicos

Con gran entusiasmo comenzamos el ciclo de mini disertaciones hablando sobre lo que mas les gusta comer en el desayuno y en el almuerzo.

For breakfast I like...
For lunch I like...

El Objetivo de la actividad es que los alumnos, de acuerdo a sus propios gustos, eligieran las comidas y alimentos que mas les gusta comer para el desayuno (Breakfast) y el almuerzo (Lunch).
El material visual de apoyo debía ser confeccionado en conjunto con los padres, ya que le doy mucha importancia a la integración de los padres en las actividades escolares de los niños.

Luego de que los niños y niñas daban su speech practicado en casa, yo les hacia preguntas para afirmar vocabulario. Preguntas tales como: "When do you eat milk?" el objetivo aquí era que localizaran el alimento preguntado por mi y luego me dijeran a cuál de las dos comidas pertenecían. En varios casos me encontre que los alumnos se esforzaron mas en aprenderse los nombres de los alimentos mas que la comida a la cual pertenecían, así que en esos casos la pregunta la reformulaba con alternativas: "When do you eat milk? For breakfast or for Lunch?" Las alternativas gatillaban inmediatamente la respuesta correcta.

Esta actividad, en donde quise involucrar las 4 habilidades básicas: Writing, Speaking, Listening and Reading, cumplió todas mis espectativas. Los alumnos estaban motivados al igual que los padres. Se sentían importantes y se esforzaron para hacer lo mejor.
El único inconveniente, que estaba previsto, fue la longitud de la actividad. Al tener sólo dos horas semanales, la actividad se tornó extensa. de hecho ocupé tres clases(tres semanas, por ende) mas una semana para los ausentes o los atrasados.

Para que la actividad quedara como un bonito recuerdo para los niños y sus padres, a cada uno les saque una foto junto a su afiche. Los álbumes de fotos digital las pueden encontrar al costado derecho de este blog, separados por cursos 2ºD, 2ºE y 2ºF

(4to Medio) TEXT 3 "JOHN TRAVOLTA: THE ACTOR"

The pros and cons in John Travolta's movie career

John Travolta was born in 1954 in Eaglewood, New Jersey, US. He was the youngest of six children. He wanted to become an actor. In 1975, he played in a TV program called Welcome Back Kotter about a high school teacher and his students. The program was very popular and Travolta became famous. Then he started making movies and starred in several successful films. They included Saturday Night Fever and Grease. Audiences liked his acting and dancing.

The worst time
In 1977, things suddenly went wrong. His mother and his girlfriend died. Travolta said it was the worst time of his life. He made several unsuccessful films, and thought about giving up as an actor. He is a pilot and has three planes, so he considered becoming a full-time pilot.

Kelly Preston enters
But then, when he was working on a movie called The Experts in 1987, he met Kelly Preston. The film didn't do well, but John and Kelly fell in love. They got married and they now have a son. They named him Jett because Travolta loves jet planes. Before Jett was born, John and Kelly used to work or go out on weekends, but they prefer to stay home now. The only problem is deciding which home. They have four homes - in California, Florida, Maine, and Hawaii.

In the mid-nineties, John Travolta's luck as an actor changed for the better. He made some very popular films, including Pulp Fiction, Get Shorty, and Mad City. For the second time in his career, he became successful.

A Look at the Intriguing History of Snowboarding
By Keith Kingston

To say who actually invented the sport of snowboarding would be impossible because people have always loved to slide down a snow-covered hill. Soaring through the snow on some kind of seat or board is nothing new. The ways to enjoy the snow are numerous, and people have devised ways to turn garbage can lids and cardboard into ‘snow boards’ to enjoy an afternoon frolic outdoors. The various ways to glide through snow have become more sophisticated and have evolved into using polished boards or skis in much the same manner as a surfboarder would ride a wave.

There have been many attempts at developing a modern snowboard. In 1965, the ‘Snurfer’ (a word play on ‘snow’ and ‘surfer’) was developed as a child’s toy. Two skis were bound together and a rope was placed at the front end to afford control and stability. Over 500,000 ‘Snurfers’ were sold in 1966 but they were never seen as more than a child's plaything even though organized competitions began to take place. The year 1969 brought a slightly more sophisticated snowboard based on the principles of skiing combined with surfboard styling.

The ‘Flying Yellow Banana’ was developed in 1977. This was nothing more than a plastic shell covered with a top surface like that of a skateboard, but at the time it was considered a major advance in the little known sport of snowboarding. The first national snowboard race was held in the area outside Woodstock and was known as ‘The Suicide Six.’ The race consisted of a steep downhill run called The Face in which the main goal was probably mere survival.

Snowboarding continued to increase in popularity over the next several years. In 1985 the first magazine dedicated specifically to snowboarding hit the news stands with huge success and furthered the popularity of this exciting sport. Hoards of fans began to organize regional events and pretty soon snowboarding events were held in all parts of the world. In the year 1994 snowboarding was finally declared an Olympic event, much to the delight of fans. The not-so-new sport of snowboarding was finally recognized and meant a huge victory for serious snowboarders across the globe.

A collection of snowboarding tricks and stunts was released on video in 1996. Filmed in Alaska, the breathtaking beauty and captivating snowboarding techniques featured in the video exposed snowboarding to a new generation, and by 1998 snowboarding constituted almost 50% of all winter activity. Today, nearly all ski resorts accept snowboarders. There are still a few holding on to the past but this is unlikely to continue as the number of snowboarders continually increases.

From the first crudely built snowboards to the advanced and specialized models available today, snowboarders have carried a ‘bad boy’ image. This rebel reputation is still common today in spite of the fact that snowboarding appeals to men, women, and children of all nationalities and social groups. At most major ski resorts you can find snowboarding gear, information, and lessons. Olympic and world wide snowboarding events are among the most popular of winter sports and the competition to be the best is fierce.

Retailers nation wide and around the world carry many types of snowboards, and the choice in specially made snowboarding gear is immense. Snowboarders have participated in the X Games and even charity events such as Boarding for Breast Cancer. From its early meager beginnings snowboarding has progressed into a fully recognized sport, and large numbers of people are turning to snowboarding for adventure, fun, and professional recognition.

4tos Medios: "PASSIVE VOICE"(Grammar summary)

Use of Passive
Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not known, however, who or what is performing the action.

Example: My bike was stolen.

In the example above, the focus is on the fact that my bike was stolen. I do not know, however, who did it.
Sometimes a statement in passive is more polite than active voice, as the following example shows:

Example: A mistake was made.

In this case, I focus on the fact that a mistake was made, but I do not blame anyone (e.g. You have made a mistake.).

Form of Passive
Subject + finite form of to be + Past Participle (3rd column of irregular verbs)

Example: A letter was written.

When rewriting active sentences in passive voice, note the following:

• the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence
• the finite form of the verb is changed (to be + past participle)
• the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence (or is dropped)

Passive Sentences with Two Objects

Rewriting an active sentence with two objects in passive voice means that one of the two objects becomes the subject, the other one remains an object. Which object to transform into a subject depends on what you want to put the focus on.

As you can see in the examples, adding by Rita does not sound very elegant. That’s why it is usually dropped.

Personal and Impersonal Passive

Personal Passive simply means that the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence. So every verb that needs an object (transitive verb) can form a personal passive.

Example: They build houses. – Houses are built.

Verbs without an object (intransitive verb) normally cannot form a personal passive sentence (as there is no object that can become the subject of the passive sentence). If you want to use an intransitive verb in passive voice, you need an impersonal construction – therefore this passive is called Impersonal Passive.

Example: he says – it is said

Impersonal Passive is not as common in English as in some other languages (e.g. German, Latin). In English, Impersonal Passive is only possible with verbs of perception (e. g. say, think, know).

Example: They say that women live longer than men. – It is said that women live longer than men.

Although Impersonal Passive is possible here, Personal Passive is more common.

Example: They say that women live longer than men. – Women are said to live longer than men.

The subject of the subordinate clause (women) goes to the beginning of the sentence; the verb of perception is put into passive voice. The rest of the sentence is added using an infinitive construction with 'to' (certain auxiliary verbs and that are dropped).

Sometimes the term Personal Passive is used in English lessons if the indirect object of an active sentence is to become the subject of the passive sentence.

(4to Medio) TEXT 1: "Two Sisters and the Cat"

Two sisters and the cat

Mrs Wilson and Mrs Smith are sisters. Mrs Wilson lives in a house in Duncan and Mrs Smith lives in a condominium in Victoria. One day Mrs Wilson visited her sister. When her sister answered the door Mrs Wilson saw tears in her eyes. "What's the matter?" she asked. Mrs Smith said "My cat Sammy died last night and I have no place to bury him".

She began to cry again. Mrs Wilson was very sad because she knew her sister loved the cat very much. Suddenly Mrs. Wilson said "I can bury your cat in my garden in Duncan and you can come and visit him sometimes. Mrs. Smith stopped crying and the two sisters had tea together and a nice visit.


It was now five o'clock and Mrs Wilson said it was time for her to go home. She put on her hat, coat and gloves and Mrs Smith put the dead Sammy into a shopping bag. Mrs Wilson took the shopping bag and walked to the bus stop. She waited a long time for the bus so she bought a newspaper. When the bus arrived she got on the bus, sat down and put the shopping bag on the floor beside her feet. She then began to read the newspaper. When the bus arrived at her bus stop she got off the bus and walked for about two minutes. Suddenly she remembered she left the shopping bag on the bus.
