THE ADVANCED BILINGUALISM PROCESS THAT IS DEVELOPING IN THE GIMNASIO DEL NORTE CONTINUES INCREASSINGLY INVOLVING THE STUDENTS WITH THE AIM TO LEARN ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE.
DURING THE ACTIVITY CALLED “ENGLISH DAY”, THE STUDENTS HAD FUN KNOWING ABOUT THE CULTURE OF DIFFERENTS COUNTRIES WHICH HAVE ENGLISH AS A FIRST LANGUAGE, ALSO THEY HAD FUN WITH THE REPRESENTATION OF COMMERCIALS THAT INCLUDE THIS LANGUAGE IN EVERY DAY SITUATIONS.
OF COURSE THE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS ENJOYED A SIMILAR ACTIVITY, THIS INCLUDED DRAMAS BY THE STUDENTS WHO SHOWED THE GREAT ENGLISH LEVEL THAT THE GIMNASIO DEL NORTE STUDENTS HAVE.
DURING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FIRST ENGLISH DAY IN OUR SCHOOL, THE STUDENTS HAD THE POSSBILITY TO VISIT FIVE STANDS TO KNOW MORE ABOUT OTHER COUNTRIES.
AUSTRALIA, SOUTH AFRICA, NEW ZELAND, UNITED KINGDOM, U.S.A AND JAMAICA WERE THE COUNTRIES CHOSEN BY THE ENGLISH TEACHERS, WITH THE PURPOSE TO SHOW NEW CULTURES, ESPECIALLY WHERE ENGLISH IS SPOKEN.
THE STUDENTS SHOWED INTEREST DURING THE TOUR AROUND THE COUNTRIES KNOWING MORE ABOUT THEM AND AT THE SAME TIME LEARNING ENGLISH.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ENGLISH DEPARTMENT OF GIMNASIO DEL NORTE FOR MAKING THIS KIND OF ACTIVITIES POSSIBLE WHICH INCREASE OUR ENGLISH LEVEL.
