Classes have been cancelled due to the State of Alarm introduced because of the Coronavirus outbreak. The grammar exams of all my groups have been changed to new dates you can check HERE. Detailed info about all the changes on the school's webpage.
This is what you should work on during the lockdown for these exams:
I've set up groups on Google Classroom to keep in touch with you. You need a code to entre your group. I've sent the codes by whatsapp & email to students of 4ºESO and 1ºBAC to pass on to others. My 2ºESO students or anybody who hasn't received it or has any doubts/questions can contact me at the email at the end of this message.
Keep calm down during the lockdown. There's a lot of time to do lots of things.
As clases foron canceladas debido ao Estado de Alarma imposto pola crise do Coronavirus. Os exames de gramática de todos os meus grupos foron cambiados a unhas novas datas que podedes comprobar AQUÍ. Información detallada sobre todos os cambios na páxina web do instituto.
Isto é no que podedes traballar durante o confinamento para estes exames:
Montei grupos en Google Classroom para manter contacto con vos. Necesitades un código para entrar no voso grupo. Enviei os códigos por whatsapp e email a algún alumnado de 4º e 1ºBAC para que o pasasen aos demáis. O meu alumnado de 2ºESO e calquera que non o recibise ou ten dúbidas/preguntas, pode contactar conmigo no email ao final desta mensaxe.
Mantede a calma durante o confinamento. Hai un montón de tempo para facer moitas cousas.
