I´m sailing on Greay Lake, in the South of Argentina, going from "el Chalten" to Viedna Glaciar. Look at these colours! Look at the icebergs!!! That´s amazing!


This photo is in Chile, in Paine Park. It´s a big park in the South of Chile. We just climbed the Pained Towers, we are exhausted, because it takes 8 hours. Now we are visiting its lakes, they are fantastic too!!

I'm trekking the Incas´s Road. It´s my second day here. We are going to "Machu Pichu". It´s quiet, silent and really peaceful!  It´s a great experience!



We are going to Bolivia now, by bus of course!. We are moving on the  road near  the Titicaca Lake. It´s a beatiful day, and the lake is huge, and has blue and shinning water!. We are all excited.  We are singing and dancing in the bus!!

Of Capulets and Montagues...


Hi, there!

I heard you went to see Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" recently! I really hope you liked it. Can you believe the play is over 400 years old?? Anyway, here are some tasks for you to do:

1) Briefly explain how these following 3 elements are important in the plot, please.






2) Describe one of your favourite scenes from the play.


3) Have you seen/read any other Shakespeare play? If you have, which one and what was it about? If not, would you like to? Why?
