Very often my students are not aware of the importance of pronouncing English words correctly. The sounds of a language change the meaning of a word. For example, if you want to make the difference between the present simple and the past simple of a regular verb, you need to pronounce the -ed ending correctly.
Today at school we celebrated the European Day of Languages.
Students from 1st ESO enjoyed it very much. They filled a map, labelling the countries with their language. We have learnt that Europe has 24 official European languages.

“Critical Thinking Skills” (habilidades de pensamiento crítico). Este ha sido el título del curso de formación Erasmus Plus en el que han participado dos profesoras del IES La Foia de Ibi, Alejandrina Carbonell Barrachina e Irene Pastor Casas, donde han trabajado de una forma práctica herramientas útiles en el desarrollo y la gestión del pensamiento crítico. Se ha realizado entre los días 4 y 12 de mayo de 2019 en Pamporovo (Bulgaria) y han asistido personas de ocho países (Bulgaria, Croacia, Macedonia del Norte, Estonia, Letonia, Polonia, San Martín, República Checa y España) y estaba enmarcado dentro de un proyecto Erasmus+ KA1, Youth Programme. Ha sido una experiencia muy enriquecedora, pues se ha fomentado el conocimiento y la cohesión con otros países y culturas, así como el establecimiento de nuevos lazos de cooperación.
As a teacher, I must say it has been an enriching experience. As a result, my basic and fundamental skills on critical thinking have been boosted. Also, my communicative oral skills have improved and I can use and apply all this knowledge in my personal development and in my teaching job. On the other hand, I met different people and learnt interesting cultural and historical facts about Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Spain, Saint Martin, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, North Macedonia and Croatia.
In addition, I realised once more how important it is to teach our students critical thinking skills.
I have used some of the activities learnt in the course in my English lesson with Bachillerato students.
