A NEW CHALLENGE!!!





Are you ready for a new challenge? Yes? No? Anyway, I'm posting a new activity for you. This time you are going to pretend you are journalits. Your aim is to obtain information about those teachers you see everyday at the school. There are many of them eager to tell you a lot of things about their lives; others will be more difficult to be questioned. It is up to you!!! You decide the teachers you want to interview.
The rules of this activity are as follows:
1. You have to use English and just English (I'll ask teachers if you questioned them in English before giving you any star)
2. You can work on your own, in pairs or in groups (In case you work in groups or in pairs the number of stars will be divided among the members of the group)
3. The information obtained can be posted here in the blog or you can hand it to me.
4. The more information you get, the better. (Juicy information will be highly rewarded)
5. This is the basic information you have to obtain. (You have build the questions from these topics)
- General information: age, date of birth, place of birth, marital status, place of residence...
- Time he/ she has been teaching
- Previous jobs
- What he/she likes and doesn't like about teaching.
- Free time activities
- Favourite book
- Favourite song
- Favourite film
- Favourite place
- How he/she relaxes
- Countries he/she has visited
- Hopes, desires for the future
- Something he/she hates
- Something he/she really loves
ETC...

And that's all. Now, it is your turn. Try to surprise me. Maybe you are great reporters and in some years time I see you on TV. Who knows?

Alberto and Pedro!!! You are great journalists, at least you are the first ones. However, you must pay attention to your mistakes. Anyway, I'll give you some stars, but I have to think about the exact number of them. Now, it is too late and I cannot think...
Maybe, tomorrow...

Elena and I (noelia)have been working like journalists!!! And we have made two interviews.
First, we were talking to Noelia, the English's teacher. Then we were talking to Ana Belén, the History's teacher.

Noelia is 34 years old and her birthday is on 18th January. She lives in Sonseca, a village near Los Yébenes.
She always knew she wanted to be a teacher and she has been teaching for 10 years. She only has worked like teacher. She said that the best thing to be a teacher is that you can see how the pupils grow up and how they eventually learn English. However, she thinks that the worst thing to be a teacher is that sometimes it's tired because you are talking for hours and hours and hours...
Her favourite book is THE CLAN OF THE CAVE BEAR.
She has got many favourites films but the best of them is THE BRIDGES OF MADISON.
Her perfect world would be a world without illness and poverty.
Her favourite season is spring because it's warm but not very hot; it rains but often sunny.
