Elimination of Violence against Women

2011-11-24T23:02:00.002+01:00

In December 1999, the 54th session of the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 54/134 declaring November 25th the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.

The origins of November 25th go back to 1960, when the Mirabal sisters from the Dominican Republic were violently assassinated for their political activism.

The sisters, known as the Unforgettable Butterflies, became a symbol of the crisis of violence against women in Latin America.

November 25th was the date chose to commemorate their lives and promote global recognition of gender violence, and has been observed worldwide since the 1980s.

Noche de Reyes

2009-01-05T12:22:00.007+01:00

Today is the first Noche de Reyes of our son Daniel.

We want to dedicate him this poem by Gloria Fuertes.

EL CAMELLO COJITO

(AUTO DE LOS REYES MAGOS)

El camello se pinchó

Con un cardo en el camino

Y el mecánico Melchor

Le dio vino.

Baltasar fue a repostar

Más allá del quinto pino....

E intranquilo el gran Melchor

Consultaba su "Longinos".

-¡No llegamos,no llegamos

y el Santo Parto ha venido!-

son las doce y tres minutos

y tres reyes se han perdido-.

El camello cojeando

Más medio muerto que vivo

Va espeluchando su felpa

Entre los troncos de olivos.

Acercándose a Gaspar,

Melchor le dijo al oído:

-Vaya birria de camello

que en Oriente te han vendido.

A la entrada de Belén

Al camello le dio hipo.

¡Ay, qué tristeza tan grande

con su belfo y en su hipo!

Se iba cayendo la mirra

A lo largo del camino,

Baltasar lleva los cofres,

Melchor empujaba al bicho.

Y a las tantas ya del alba

-ya cantaban pajarillos-

los tres reyes se quedaron

boquiabiertos e indecisos,

oyendo hablar como a un Hombre

a un Niño recién nacido.

-No quiero oro ni incienso

ni esos tesoros tan fríos,

quiero al camello, le quiero.

Le quiero, repitió el Niño.

A pie vuelven los tres reyes

Cabizbajos y afligidos.

Mientras el camello echado

Le hace cosquillas al Niño.

Look what I have discovered in Monica's blog!

"VozMe" is an online tool that offers applications and services to convert text into speech. Write any word, sentence or text you want to listen in English and "VozMe" will generate a MP3 either to listen or to record!

Think of the possibilities with your students to listen to the pronunciation of the words they don't know.

Listen to male and female pronunciation!

Incy Wincy Spider

"Incy Wincy Spider" is my son's favourite son. I used to sing it when I was pregnant and now, I know he recognises it because he smiles when I sing it and stares at me opening his big eyes as much as he can. Isn't it incredible?

A rainy Sunday!

Two new link categories!

2008-05-23T10:34:00.005+02:00

I want to add two new link categories:

Blogs.
Pictures, Clipart and so on.

Links! Links!

2008-05-22T16:13:00.001+02:00

Uff! Hard work to do! The links will be organized under diferent categories:

General Links for Teachers
Links for English Teachers
Links for Students
Dictionaries

Links

2008-05-21T10:08:00.001+02:00

The next step will be to include a list of useful links either for teachers or students. I'm going to select among the ones I usually visit. I hope they will be useful for you too.

I've decided that today - 20th May 2008 - is a very good day to start my blog. This is just a try as I am a "begginer" in this net-world, but as a Chinese Proverb says "you don't kwow what you are able to do until you do it"
