Figueira da Foz

Hi friends,
Now it's spring already but here's a picture of the sea in Figueira da Foz during a storm.

Reading Review by BEATRIZ

As a mother and teacher, one of my quests is to instil reading habits in our children and teens and believe me, the younger, the better! I'm not very demanding by expecting them to read in English as I believe that will come with time - at this stage, I just want them to READ and ENJOY!
Right in the beginning, three girls gathered and recommended the first book of a trilogy and it was such a hit that our school library bought the three books and they have been on loan ever since :)
Now, one of those students came forward with another book  "Sundae Girl" by Cathy Cassidy - and this is all I'm disclosing. For more, please watch the video below and leave your precious comments. Beatriz (and all!) will love to hear from you. Thank you!

Surprise!!!

Surprise, Surprise!!!
After our recording sessions, here is a compilation of photos taken by the shining stars behind the voices you've heard in the 6 slideshows we have been publishing for the last couple of days. Whenever there was someone else available, photos were taken to make those moments as memorable for me as for my students.
"I'm not afraid / To take a stand / ... We'll walk this road together, through the storm / Whatever weather, cold or warm / Just letting you know you're not alone" sings Eminem in Not Afraid , one of my favourite songs by this versatile artist. In spite of the rocky beginning with the photo uploading, my students were not afraid to do something new and different and embraced the project and the recordings wholeheartedly. They are to be congratulated for their photos, for their recordings and commitment as they wanted nothing less than perfection - it was me who sometimes denied repeating the recordings.
Therefore...Thank you Shining As, Moms and Dads, Professor Donna and all fellow course participants for your encouragement and support in this beginning ;)
Now please share some nice moments and don't go away before leaving your precious comments.
Thank you all!

 Happy Viewing!

This is the second slideshow that my shining As created for you. To start a sequence of "Soure and its surrounding areas" we bring you Samuel, the place where Diogo lives. With his mom's help, Diogo photographed and researched the area and it's also his voice that you'll hear.
Hope you enjoy it. Ah, yes, please leave him / us some feedback - we all appreciate that.
Thank you.

1. Slideshow: Soure and its Castle

Dear all,

Here is the first slideshow produced by this incredible team of bubbling young girls and boys, my shining As!
They are all about Soure and its surrounding areas and therefore wish to show you all what we have and who we are, being the first one about the Castle of Soure.
All students have to be praised as well as their parents who have been supportive all the way also by driving them around and helping with the photos.
Well, here it is, Soure Castle, by João Carecho.
Let us know what you think by leaving your precious comments. Thank you!
