Vocabulary “Health / At the doctor’s”
This is a list of words and expressions related to health and the topic “At the doctor’s” that my students of 4º ESO selected to include for the exam. We worked in groups of 5 students with a picture dictionary (Word by Word. Picture Dictionary by Steven J. Molinsky and Bill Bliss. Prentice Hall). Each group had to make sure that the five students learnt all the words and practised the dialogues of the section that they were given. Finally, they had to make a selection of the most difficult words or expressions to teach the rest of the class.
This is the list with all the words and some pictures taken from the already mentioned dictionary, which I highly recommend to all my students:
- Backache = dolor de espalda
- sore throat = dolor de garganta
- cold = resfriado
- sunburn = quemadura del sol
- stiff neck = contractura del cuello
- wart = verruga
- chills = escalofríos
- hiccups = hipo
- shortness of breath = que te falta la respiración
- faint = desmayarse
- wheeze = respirar con dificultad
- sneeze = estornudar
- bloated = estar hinchado
- dizzy = mareado
- burp = eructar
- bleed = sangrar
- twist = torcerse
- sprain = hacerse un esguince
- scratch = arañazo
- scrape = rozadura
- scale = peso, balanza
- drill = taladrar
- needle = aguja
- stitches = puntos de sutura
- sling = cabestrillo
- crutches = muletas
- counseling = consulta
- rest in bed = guardar cama

Global issues posters
My students have been studying vocabulary and expressions related to global issues:
Global_issues Global_issues_game Global_issues_recortables
We have been talking about their causes and consequences and we’ve been discussing about what we can do as individuals. One of these things is to create posters to inform people about these problems. Here are some examples of the posters they’ve made:

How many types of shoes do you know in English?
Have a look at this picture:
Why do you study English?
Well, a good answer to that question could be that English is all around us. If you don’t believe it, why don’t you have a look at the T-shirts the people around you are wearing now?
These are some examples of messages in English I found on my students’ T-shirts on the last days of June. Why don’t you have a look and use a dictionary to know what they mean? You can find more examples on other posts in this blog.

Project “Messages on T-shirts” 4º ESO
Do you read the messages that appear on the T-shirts that you usually wear? During the first term, my students of 4º ESO have brought T-shirts with messages on them into class or they have taken photos of some of their friends’ T-shirts. The objective: to learn English through the messages that we see on our clothes everyday. This is the result:
Hola Vegas, donde las luces brillan más que…
Obedece
Tranquilízate y vete a California
¡Oh……., es lunes!
Cosas que me hacen feliz: Tú, Nosotros …. es todo lo que necesito
La salvaje

No soy mi dinero, ni mi pelo alborotado, ni la foto de mi perfil. No soy mi móvil, ni mi bolso ni mis zapatos. No soy mi camiseta, porque el estilo de vida que pedí no está actualmente en existencias.
Quien tú eres (quien soy yo) ????
Cuatro puntas
Nuestra forma de ser
Reina de las joyas
Gran valle
Sudadera negra con capucha
Reyes
Area de autoservicio. Sírvase usted mismo
Sin lluvia no hay arcoiris
Bésame……..
Mimada
Pulsa el botón de inicio. Un jugador. Dos jugadores
Relájate y pásatelo bien
Por tu seguridad, mantén la distancia
La grandeza de un país y su progreso moral pueden juzgarse por la manera en que se trata a los animales.
Todo los finales son también principios. Simplemente no lo sabemos en ese momento.
