Day of Bowling II

Today was the second day of classes, we read the first chapter of The Huger Games together and it seems that’s going to be an interesting book. Then we also practiced small talk, the teachers gave us some situations with their own dialogs, so it was like a role play.
After classes we went to McDonalds, and we had lunch there. Then we headed out to the bowling. It was crowded and after a confusion we had to move from where we were playing a few times. While we were playing, there was having place a bowling league competition and it was amazing because they had their own equipment and their shots were cool. After that we went to the college to play ping pong and with the Play Station because we still had some time left.

Our first day at Polk State College

Today was the first day that we went to Polk State College in Winter Haven so the classes have begun. First the two teachers have been submitted and they have explained how they were going to run the classes. We have made an essay about  yourself.

After that, a boy at school has made us a tour for the campus and he has shown us the different kind of departments in the college. We have just seen the gym where we could play dodgeball. Then we returned to class to continue the class until 12:30. When we have finished, we have gone to eat at Subway.

Finally we went to see a movie called The Amazing Spiderman and have returned home with our host families to finish the day.

Saber idiomas es abrir fronteras…

Un cordial saludo desde los diferentes “blogs” de nuestros Cursos de Idiomas, cuya finalidad es la de ser puentes de relación y comunicación con todos los padres, madres, familiares y amigos de cada uno de nuestros

estudiantes.

Deseamos, que mediante los mismos, todos nos sintamos suficientemente informados de las diferentes actividades y de la marcha general de cada uno de los grupos. Ello contribuirá a la tranquilidad y confianza de saber que vuestros hijos e hijas aprovechan y cumplen los objetivos que nuestra Organización se ha propuesto realizar: divertirnos aprendiendo y madurar como personas. De esta manera contribuimos a hacer realidad que el “saber idiomas es abrir fronteras”.

UN IDIOMA, UN PAÍS, UNA ILUSIÓN... ¡HASTA SIEMPRE!

Un año más cerramos nuestros cursos de Idiomas, con la confianza que todos nuestros estudiantes hayan alcanzado los objectivos que nos habíamos marcado.

Quiero pues, agradecer desde aquí, en primer lugar, todo el trabajo llevado a cabo por los directores de grupo y los monitores responsables de cada uno de ellos. Asimismo, agradezo a los padres la confianza que habéis tenido con Idiomas Padre Manyanet.

Con el deseo de que todos terminemos de pasar un feliz verano en familia, que San Jose Manyanet bendiga cada uno de vuestros hogares y hasta siempre.
