Welcome to the course 2014/15

Hi everybody!  As I said here, this is my first year in a bilingual school (IES Valdebernardo) and the fact of having to teach Technologies in English is a an exciting challenge for me. Last year I had the opportunity  to teach the technical vocabulary of Technologies in English (in IES Antonio Machado) and, I think, it did not go so bad. However, I consider myself a newly comer in teaching my subject in English.
This blog is for my students of 1st course of ESO (1st A and 1st B) and it has two purposes: to communicate with them out of class and help them with the content subject and the English vocabulary necessary for the class. So, welcome everybody and  I apologize, in advance, for the many mistakes I am going to make. See you.
