Nuestra Auxiliar de Conversación Felicity Sylvester ha creado un blog en inglés en el que va a compartir algunas de sus experiencias e impresiones de su estancia en Talavera. El blog es una interesante herramienta pedagógica porque:
- nos permite leer en inglés sobre una persona a la que todos conocemos,
- nos permite vernos a nosotros mismos desde los ojos sinceros de una persona que nos describe con objetividad.
Os aconsejo que tengáis este blog en vuestros marcadores o en vuestro lector de noticias y lo sigáis habitualmente. Será útil para vuestro inglés y todos aprenderemos mucho.

Reading Club 2012

This term we are reading The Lord of the Flies, by William Golding.
Throughout the novel Golding explores two topics in detail -civilization vs savagery, and the loss of children's innocence. As it is in fact an alegory of human nature, each character represents different core traits in people. Ralph represents order and civilization, while Piggy ressembles reason and good sense; on the other hand, Jack shows craving for power and evil and Roger cruelty and sadism at their utmost. Last, Simon represents man's natural goodness.
All the teachers who participate in the Secciones Europeas Programme this year are taking part in this Reading Club, which takes place during our weekly training session for conversation practice, every Wednesday morning.
