IT'S WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON THAT BLOG

Guess what? English Without End has been awarded with ‘Vale a pena ficar de olho nesse blog’ award by Ángel Gonzalez, a teacher of English and Science and author of a fascinating blog called Colonial Nuggets. I think you will find this blog really interesting for your kids and also for those of you interested in science. I just remember a couple of weeks ago when one of you was so kind as to share with us the book 'The Complete History of the Universe' by Brian May (former Queen guitarist). A conversation about science followed and other titles were mentioned such as 'A Brief History of Nearly Everything' by Bill Bryson. Make sure you keep an eye on this blog. You won't regret it.

This award is part of an initiative that seeks to highlight the blogs of other teachers and students. The chosen blog has to copy the picture (the one on the left), with a link to the blog from which it has received the award. Then you have to write ten more links to the blogs which are well worth a visit. For me, they are:

Apart from this, you can visit Planeta AICOLE which has a long list of wonderful blogs for you to learn languages. Besides, you can add your own blog to the list if you want (a CRIF Las Acacias project).

I think that it is just amazing not only the number but also the quality of blogs created by all kind of teachers and enjoyed by their students. This initiative is an excellent way to have a direct link to impressive blogs that, otherwise, we would never come across.

    I would highlight that the most important thing is not only your BLOG but yourself as an english teacher.
    I´ll never forget that in my worst moments, you´ve always encouraged me to continue my English studies, You cheered me up!

    Thanks a lot, Yaiza. This really means a lot. You know, my students are mostly adults so I'm very glad to read that younger people are also interested in these topics. This says a lot about you. Besides, you are very lucky your English teacher is a 'blogfesor', don't you think?
