Speaking of imperialism


4t ESO


Students read two texts in Catalan about colonialism. One of them shows the point of view of Europeans, how they see the Indians, and the other one shows the opinion of indigenous.

The earthquake in L'Aquila


Our language assistant, Elena, read us a story about the earthquake in L'Aquila, Italy, in 2009. Then, the students have made questions to each other related to this event, like what magnitude it had on the Richter scale, how many victims there were or how many people were left homeless. Here you can see some example of this practice.
