Remember, Remember the Fifth of November (Guy Fawkes Night Rhyme)

Remember, remember

the Fifth of November,

The Gunpowder Treason and Plot,

I know of no reason

Why the Gunpowder Treason

Should ever be forgot.

Guy Fawkes, Guy Fawkes,t'was his intent

To blow up the King and Parli'ment.

Three-score barrels of powder below

To prove old England's overthrow;

By God's providence he was catch'd (or by God's mercy*)

With a dark lantern and burning match.

Holla boys, Holla boys, let the bells ring.

Holloa boys, holloa boys, God save the King!

And what should we do with him? Burn him!

AUTUMN TIME

Autumn is finally here and we are working on this woonderful season with plenty of different activities: vocabulary, poems, songs, projects and presentations.

Today students in 1ESO A presented their projects to Manny, our teacher from Texas. They did great and we have all learnt a lot about autumn, harvesting time, Halloween, Guy Fawkes, Thanksgiving Day and other traditions this time of the year.

The students in PMAR 1 have also made a nice poster to welcome the new season. They are studying new words and learning autumn poems.

Class rules

Students in 1A ESO wrote some class rules to be respected. They stuck all the rules on the walls of the class to remember the way we have to behave. 

This is me!!

Students in 1A ESO introduced themselves in class today. They presented their own profiles to their classmates. They've learnt a lot of new things about their peers. It was fun and enriching!! 

GUIDED TOUR IN PLASENCIA

Last April 25th some students of 4th ESO enjoyed a guided tour in English in the historic town centre of Plasencia. They discovered new places, facts and monuments. At the same time, they learned new vocabulary related to art and history. The whole visit was in English so the students could practice their oral skills. We thank the Tourism Department of Plasencia for this idea. Now when these students find foreign tourists in our town, they will surely have many things to say and, of course, in English!
