English project. Internacional Desserts

At our children’s English school, the teacher has asked them to research an international dessert and find a recipe for it, so they can present it in English with a short oral presentation.

Álvar and Martín, who love making posters, set about researching their chosen desserts—tiramisu and apple pie—the very same day the project was set. 

They looked for information in English, selected photos, and today they have already designed the poster and handwritten all the content.

We have also practised the oral presentation, because all this preparation and work helps them gain fluency and confidence in communicating.

Here the posters:

I love seeing my children’s progress in their second language. It is now that we are beginning to see how all the effort in terms of time and money, put into ensuring they progress without fear and, above all, that they enjoy learning a language, is starting to bear fruit.

Anyone who thinks a language can be learnt solely through three hours of lessons at school and by following a textbook… I think they are very much mistaken…
