The polar bears





Write
The animal in this photo is a polar bear.

Polar bears live in the artic, Canada, Russia, Greenland and Norway. They live and hunt in the ice and they usually eat seals. Adult polar bears are 750 kilos, and they can swim more than 150 kilometres. Females have two cubs every four or five years.

The polar bears are dying because in the sea there's oil and humans hunt polar bears in some areas. They also die because the Artic is smaller because the climate is changing.

Xmas activites

HI
I listened some elementary podcasts of British Council. I didn't understand everything.

Writing about St. George


Every year there's a big celebration in Catalonia. It's called St. George. The celebration is on the twenty-third of April. Saint George is the patron Saint in Catalonia.

People buy and give books and they also buy and give roses to their loved ones. I buy some books.

I like St. George because I love books and I also like  it because it's a national party.

Write a report


In my class there are 27 students (Including students in the classroom A) from six different  countries. There are people from Catalonia, Honduras, Morocco, Gambia, Romania and Vietnam.

At school we have Catalan, Spanish and English three times a week. We haven't  more languages classes. People in the class speak Catalan, Sarahule,  Spanish, Arabic , Italian and Romanian.

My English is OK. My grammar is quite good. I want to improve my listening and speaking. I think that it is a  good idea to memorize key words and watch TV in English.

All about Banyoles


Banyoles is a town in the north-east of Catalonia. It's the capital of "Pla de l'Estany. It's got a population of about 17000 and there is some tourism  and rowing.

I like Banyoles because it's a nice place. For tourism there is the lake, I love the lake. And there is the old town centre.

Banyoles is about 20 kilometres from Girona and about 120 kilometres from Barcelona. There are some buses from Girona and Barcelona.
