St George, the dragon and a very interesting resource!

This is a very interesting webpage from the Art Institute of Chicago containing some interesting resources for teachers and parents. 

I've fallen in love with their 'story time' section. In fact, I'm using the one dealing with St. George and the Dragon.

The only problem is it is a reading comprehension activity (no sound involved). But the graphics are cute and my students loved it. 

Didn't you, guys?

A Charles Dickens Webquest!

As you know, this year we're studying some of the most important authors and works from English literature.

Last term, we started with Dickens and now I'd like to continue what we started with this Webquest.

Three important rules:

1. The due date is on February, 15th 2015! So, please, note it down in your agenda/calendar/notebook so you won't be like this poor pup when I ask you about the webquest you didn't submit.

2. You have to do it in pairs (choose wisely, I won't accept any group changes/arguments). 

3. ENJOY!
