Our Project and our Stay in Scotland

We did the Orator Project. We worked for three years on it. The 1st Eso worked on the places in Sant Llorenç and 2nd Eso worked on the sports. We worked on these two topics using many different activities such as web quest, crisscross puzzles, descriptions... We did a video with the photos and we recorded our voices. IES Francesc Ribalta did the project too. We won the project and we will go to Scotland together. Now we are preparing our stay there. We are very excited about it. On June 14th we did a bingo to obtain money and in summer we’re doing a “panera” with the same purpose. It was really great and it will be really great!!!!!!

In Scotland many things happened and I will tell you some:
When we took a coach to go somewhere, we always sang a lot of songs and we had a lot of fun.
In Raquel’s and Alba’s house, they put a “llonganissa” (sausage) in a microwave and it was very hard.
George was the best teacher in the Mackenzie School. He was very fun and very nice. His classes were funnier than others.
The Botanic Gardens were very big and there were a lot of beautiful squirrels.
In Edimburgh wer took a bus everyday to go to school and to go back home and a lot of people got lost!!
When we went to climb Arthur’s Seat, in the summit it was very windy and Jordi almost flew. Then, when we were going back to the Palace Cafe we ran and Dani felt and other people as well.
The people we met were great, fun and very nice people!!!!!

Climbing Arthur's Seat!!!!

Tuesday, 22nd September 2009. Today in the morning we went to school. We ate a sandwitch for lunch. Later we went to Edinburgh Volcano, called Arthur’s seat. It was very windy. It took a lot of time to get at the top. There were 40 minutes to arrive at the top. There were very beautiful views from the top. We saw a stadium, many houses, monuments and the see. We went down to Edinburgh in 20 minutes. We took the bus and we went shopping. We had a very good day!
Avui al mati hem anat a l’escola, hem dinat un entrepa. Despres hem anat al volca d’Edinburgh anomenat Arthur’s seat, on hi feia molt vent. Vam tardar 40 min a arribar a dalt. Hi havia una vista molt bonica. Des de dalt es veia un camp de futbol , moltes cases i monuments i fins i tot el mar. Vam baixar amb 20 min. Vam agafar el bus i vam anar de compres. Va ser un dia molt divertit.

A visit to the National Museum!

In the afternnon we had to climb Arthur's seat, but it was raining and we went to the National Museum of Scotland. In the museum there were modern cars, telephones, pictures and a mobile that you could text messages with your feet. It was very funny and nice. Then we went back home by bus because at night we did not have any activities. We stayed with the families.

En el museu hi havien cotxes moderns, telefons, quadres i un mobil amb el que podies escriure missatges amb els peus. Va ser molt divertit i agradable. Llavors vam tornar a calsa amb autobus perque aquella nit no teniem activitats a l'escola. Ens vam quedar amb les families.

Our weekend trip: Glasgow, Glen Coe and Harry Potter's bridge.

Saturday, 19 September 09. We went to Glasgow and we went shopping. At 11 o’clock we went to the transport museum . We really liked it. Later, we had lunch in the street. When people finished we went to the bus and then we went to the valley Glen Coe and when we finished we went to visit a tower and a bridge. The bridge was in Harry Potter film. The tower was very small and the lake was very near. The trip was very long but, we were singing and the trip was shorter. Then we went to the hostel.

Vam anar a Glasgow i ens en vam anar de compres. A les 11 vam anar al museu del transports. Ens va agradar molt. Més tard, dinem al carrer. Quan la gent va acabar vam anar a l'autobús i després ens en vam anar a la vall de Glen Coe i quan vam acabar vam anar a una torre i a un pont. El pont surt a la pel.licula de Harry Potter. La torre era molt petita i el llac estava molt aprop. El trajecte era molt llarg, però estàvem cantant i el trajecte es va fer mes curt.
