Visit to María Jesús de Cuadro's class
Today I had the opportunity of meeting a very nice group of students (1º 9 - liceo # 2, Artigas) and their young and hard-working teacher. They made me feel so welcome that we are meeting again on Monday afternoon.
I would like to thank both María Jesús and her students for this incredible experience. It felt great.
Working with the xo laptops at liceo #4 (Teacher: Patricia Dos Santos- Group:2ª5)
(NOTE: Students have previously gone through a process that allowed them to gain confidence and a certain degree of autonomy on writing about people's ruotines. They were engaged in the activity and very happy to be able to connect to the internet in order to find information on people they admire.)
Thanks, Patricia, for sharing this activity with us!

CELEBRATING EARTH DAY
Nice song, GREAT images, celebrating our planet's exquisite beauty.
Beautiful poem written and read by Michael Jackson in a very expressive way.
"Planet Earth are you just
Floating by, a cloud of dust
A minor globe, about to bust
A piece of metal bound to rust
A speck of matter in a mindless void
A lonely space ship, a large asteroid
Cold as a rock without a hue
Held together with a bit of glue
Something tells me this isn't true
You are my sweetheart gentle and blue
Do you care, have you a part
In the deepest emotions of my own heart
Tender with breezes caressing and whole
Alive with music, haunting my soul.
Planet Earth, gentle and blue
With all my heart, I love you..."
Excerpt from Michael Jackson's "Planet Earth, my home, my place..."

Speaking activity at liceo #1
Last week I was invited to witness teacher Andrea Fernandez and her 1BD 5's speaking activity at liceo #1 (Artigas) .
It was a very enriching experience; the students were engaged in the activity and all of them managed to introduce themselves and give their classmates all sorts of interesting data about their families and lives . Each and every student participated; some of them showing great creativity and a natural gift for speeches.
Andrea did a great job; she monitored and gave students some hints without "intruding" on what they were doing, so as to avoid breaking the "natural flow".
Thanks, Andrea! It was a memorable experience.
LEARNING FROM THE EXPERTS
These are the Salvador twins. They are real EXPERTS on working with the xo laptops. They have been teaching me some xo tricks; a great experience I strongly recommend.
STUDY-GROUP
