Info sobre movilizaciones en EOI

michelle — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 19:55:35 +0000

La EOI de Alcorcón ha secundado la propuesta de la EOI de Rivas y ha colgado el Power Point que os adjunto sabiasque_conlenguajeinclusivo inclusivo en su página web para explicar a sus estudiantes cómo les afectan los recortes en Educación Pública directamente. ¿Qué os parece colgarlo en la Web de Getafe?

Por otro lado, me han enviado el calendario de movilizaciones previstas:

- miércoles 14 septiembre: información en los centros a estudiantes, madres y padres y concentración por la tarde
- lunes 19: Asambleas en los centros
- martes 20, miércoles 21 y jueves 22: huelgas con manifestaciones
- jueves 22: Asamblea General para evaluar la evolución de la huelga
- jueves 29: Asamblea General
- martes 4, miércoles 5 y jueves 6 de octubre: huelga de toda la enseñanza pública no universitaria

El día 19 se van a preparar unas pancartas y se van a entregar tarjetas informativas con distintos lemas. Se prevée que haya profesores informando desde las 9.30 hasta las 21:00h.

Bueno, pues esas son las novedades de Alcorcón…

Advice / Advise

michelle — Sat, 15 Jan 2011 14:51:30 +0000

In this 5-minute video lesson, the difference between these two words is explained. We would like to add that you should never use “advice” with an “-s”! Te voy a dar unos consejos = Te voy a dar un consejo — I’m going to give you some advice. Necesito unos consejos = Necesito un consejo — I need some advice.

Verbs followed by infinitive or gerund?

michelle — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 00:58:04 +0000

For Avanzado 2 students:

If you check out the link below, you will find a brief explanation and an amazing table: (scroll down a bit) mouseover a verb. Look on your right, at the green box, to find an example illustrating whether that verb is followed by an infinitive or a gerund! Before your roll over, do you know? Yes? No? Any guesses? Keep in mind some of those verbs have an Object just before the non-personal form, e.g. ADVISE: She advised US to leave early. ASK: He asked US to call him at 6pm.

Sentence Sense: verbs that take Gerund and Infinitive Completers
