About Me

My photo
Portugal
I am from Coimbra, Portugal, and am currently teaching in a school in Soure, about 30 km away from Coimbra. I have been a teacher of English for over 20 years and have already taught different levels and age groups. After all this time I can say I love working with adult groups because there are no coursebooks and I can create my own resources. I am an avid reader, a blogger and very curious about free tools and their implementation in the classroom.

IRON MAN II

I guess all 25 movie goers had a nice time and even those who hadn't seen Iron Man could easily follow the plot, right? It's another film full of action, sci-fi and cutting-edge technology that all tend to enjoy - a marvel comic set in a superheroic universe but Tony Stark - our Iron man - has a flaw...he is dying due to his chest-mounted battery pack, his life source, which is poisoning his blood. That's why he carries a little blood monitor that tells him his blood toxicity which is relentlessly increasing. In the end, of course, he finds a solution for his life-threatening problem, inspiration for some more jokes and, as far as we are concerned, the wish to be there for the third movie of the planned trilogy - not only for the film but also for the activities :=), for entertainment, for a night out especially for those who work all day long and still find the courage to attend school at night: they are the real HEROES!!!
Now enjoy half a dozen pictures of the group :)

IRON MAN 2

Were you thinking I was getting lazy or fed up?
No way!
Were you thinking I wasn't planning anything for the next days?
No way!
You are totally wrong!!!!! My next challenge is to take some adult learners to the movies - this time for "Iron Man 2".
Though not really my fave type, I'm looking forward to seeing this film not only because I saw "Iron Man" with my kids but also because the reviews are great.
Let's wait till Tuesday, 25th May, the scheduled day to go to the movies. Right now, the trailer to whet your appetite : =))))

School visit to... Louriçal

A week later, on the 6th May, off we went to Louriçal where we visited the convent, several other churches and a local bakery. We finally had a gorgeous lunch at a nice place called "Fonte da Pedra" - worth spending a day there, grilling meat and having a picnic ;)
Enjoy the pictures of a pleasant day with ANSC 2!!!

School visit to... REDINHA

Though tired and with loads of work waiting to be done, I couldn't postpone posting these pictures from last week also because there is another school visit this Thursday...
Have a look at some of the pictures taken last Thursday (29th April) when some of the trainees from ANSC 2 guided the rest of the class as well as some teachers around Redinha.
Enjoy!
