Christina of Norway. History.

Hello everyone,
Do you know the story of Christina of Norway?
She was the daughter of Hakon IV and his wife Margrete Skuledotter.  She was born in Bergen in 1234 and she married Philip, brother of Alfonso X of Castile, called "El sabio". She lived in Castile until her death four years later.
Christina and more than 100 people left Norway in the summer of 1257, after crossing the North Sea, she crossed the English Channel to Normandy. Then she continued her journey across France on horseback to Catalonia. There she met King Jame I, whose daughter was married Alfonso X of Castile.

Look at this map and think about the route she took.





























Listen to this song called "El lamento de kristina".



Do you know why she was sad and died after four years? Who did she marry? Why?

Past simple: Regular and irregular verbs. Examples. Role models.

Hello everyone,
Who are your role models? Let me introduce some role models because I have a lot.

Their names are Ainara, Paula, Andrea and Oscar year 6 and 5 students, who get up very early and love learning new things in the school. Every day they come at 8.40 and help his teacher (me) at the ICT room.
















They do a lot of things: they plug in the power cord, clean the screens, update the operative system, scan the laptops to avoid malware, tidy the room and when they have spare time they create documents like this to help other students to consolidate theur knowledge about regular and irregular verbs used in the classroom. They also record videos for their British friends to learn Spanish, do cards when a boy or a girls is ill, hang our pieces of work on the school notice board, classify the cards, tick the contacts to create groups. Did you know that they are always kind, polite and helpful? They are brilliant role models for other students.

They have also included some sentences to help them understand this tense.
Above and beyond the call of duty. Thanks a lot for such a valuable work. I feel proud of you.

Remember to praise people when they dedicate their time.

Watch this video about the past and do the activities if you can.

Oscar loves Beatles, I dedicate this song called "Let it be" to celebrate the International Day for the Eliminatio of Violence against Women.
