GRANTS (Beques)

GRANTS (Beques) by MEC 
(Programa Inmersió lingüística) (June 2013)

At the end of the last course I informed you about the English Summer Camp grants you could ask for. It was only for students in 5th, 6th year (primary education) and 1st of ESO. 

Two students (Palmira Salvador (5th ) and Marta Mora (1st ESO) were lucky to have the grant and their destination was Priego, near CUENCA. 


They highly recommend the experience, they had a wonderful time, they did a lot of activities, classes in English, sports, cultural trips etc. 

I hope this course, more people can join this grant and  enjoy these oportunities. 



                                                                             
And now Marta Mora explains her own experience.
She says:  "  I had a very good time! It was very different to the other English camps. This one was amazing! We were all the time speaking English and if there weren't counsellors, sometimes in Spanish :p
We did the Y-FACTOR that is the same as X-FACTOR but Y because it's YMCA's factor.
We didn't win the Y-FACTOR but in my opinion, it wasn't the most important thing to win. 

I think that the most important is the ECO-PROJECT. It consists of creating a party that will change de world. 

We had to make promises to improve the environmental problems. And we won! Our party was UPE (United Party for the Environment). We are very proud about our party and about us because we had been working very hard and at the end, we see that we can!
Another thing that I really like of the camps is the Daily Competition. It was a competition that we did every day with our groups. 

There were: MARMOTS (my group; 10 and 1), WOLVES (9 and 2), BEARS (8 and 3), FOXES (7 and 4), LYNXES (6 and 5) and EAGLES (counsellors). 
Every day we had a value; respect, efficiency, education, coordination, teamwork... 
I really like the way that they focus de camp; we were there to improve our English and to become better people.
To finish, I had a very good time, Ii won't change it for anything. :)

THANKS MARTA FOR YOUR COLLABORATION!!!!!

The egg treasure hunt

FIND THE TREASURE!

This is a nice activity for our students of 1^st of primary. They enjoyed it a lot! Only if all the groups got a key it was possible to open the treasure! So they worked together in a cooperative way learning English.

In groups of four students they had to find four Easter eggs in the school. Inside each Easter egg there was a message. The 1st egg was hidden in the classroom and the rest of the group helped them by shouting: ‘cold’ or ‘hot’ depending if they were near or far from the egg. When they read the message in the 1^st egg they received instruction to find the next egg. If the group came back to the class with the five eggs they got 4 different keys. At the end we opened the treasure boxes using the different keys. All the students were very motivated and reading the messages had a real purpose.

Here is an example of the instructions that the students had to follow:

First find egg number 1 in the class. Your classmates are going to help you using the words: hot and cold.

1-     GO TO THE LIBRARY AND LOOK UNDER THE COMPUTER TABLE.

2-     PERFECT! NOW GO TO THE HALL AND ASK MARGARITA:  “CAN YOU GIVE ME ONE EASTER EGG, PLEASE?”

3-     FANTASTIC!

NOW GO TO THE NEW GYM AND LOOK UNDER THE BENCH.  

4-     YOU WIN!

YOUR ENGLISH IS REALLY GOOD. GO TO YOUR CLASS AND ASK FOR THE KEY.
