C reamy or
Hot, it makes my mouth scream
On and on
Chocolate, chocolate
Oh, yum
Luscious chocolate, I can't believe I
Ate it all. It
Tickles my throat
Each time I eat it, mmm oh I love chocolate.

How can I do my Portfolio?
Well, you have three basic options:
Digital support: a CD Rom
Digital online support: a blog
We encourage you to use the blog. Why? We live in the digital era and knowledge is constructed in and with the help of the Net. We have to face the challenge of learning and learning to learn digitally, not just having fun (MSN, playstations, netmeetings, youtube etc...) with digital means... Ready ?
1- Open a new blog at blogger
2- Call it "Yourname's Portfolio". Eg: Marti Riera's Portfolio.
3- The first post should be a little welcome to the visitors of your portfolio with an image/sound or video that you like and identify with and you should explain why.
4- Your personal blog and your language passport should be on the side of your portfolio with a link (elementos de página)
5- Each new post should include one task: e-mail, horror story, first oral presentation... you can organize it by terms or in order: first composition, first oral presentation, first speaking....
In the Moodle of your class you will find all the tutorials to do this.
6- At the end of each term write a "REFLECTION" post.
7- Make your portfolio your own style!! :-)
- Paper-support: a traditional school dossier
Digital support: a CD Rom

Contents of my Portfolio
What should my Portfolio include?
1- My language passport
2- All the tasks that I have done every term:
1- My language passport
2- All the tasks that I have done every term:
- Writings: First mail to the teacher, narrative text (Halloween story), description (of a friend), dialogues and argumentative text, summaries of news you have read (Catalonia today, BBC...) and other written documents you have produced.
- A link to your personal blog
- Speakings: descriptions ( of a place), short talks on different topics , dialogues, the class presentations videos and other oral documents you have produced.
- A REFLECTION: At the end of every term, you should look back on all the tasks you have produced and write about which activity best represents your level of English and what you have learnt and why.
Why a Portfolio?
Why so much fuss about Portfolios now? well...
here are a number of reasons.
1- Common European Framework for Languages
2- My mentor: Olga Esteve
3- Previous experiences: Scrapbooks, School Dossiers...
What's the best evidence of learning? Looking backwards and forwards and showing at all times where you are in your learning path.
New Technologies now allow us to display our Portfolios online and open. Let's have a look! ;-)

Welcome to your portfolio space
This blog seeks to display your portfolios, what you have learnt in the English Class in IES Castelló d'Empúries.
Within our Innovation project 2006-2009 we aim to improve our English and reach B1 level of the Common European Framework. Thanks for your interest and engagement!
We sincerely hope this project encourages you to learn English with the support of new technologies and to eventually become an autonomous, critical and cooperative learner.
A warm welcome! :-)
