Gloria Fuertes

ESTA SEMANA CELEBRAMOS EL DÍA DEL LIBRO Y ESTE AÑO, EN EL CENTENARIO DE SU NACIMIENTO, DEDICAMOS ESTA CELEBRACIÓN A GLORIA FUERTES, LA POETA DE LOS NIÑOS

Aquí tenéis información sobre su vida y algunos de sus poemas

 AUTOBIOGRAFÍA por Gloria Fuertes

Gloria Fuertes nació en Madrid
A los dos días de edad,
Pues fue muy laborioso el parto de mi madre
Que si se descuida muere por vivirme.
A los tres años ya sabía leer
Y a los seis ya sabía mis labores.
Yo era buena y delgada,
Alta y algo enferma.
A los nueve años me pilló un carro
Y a los catorce me pilló la guerra;
A los quince se murió mi madre, se fue cuando más falta me hacía.
Aprendí a regatear en las tiendas
Y a ir a los pueblos por zanahorias.
Por entonces empecé con los amores,
-no digo nombres-,
gracias a eso, pude sobrellevar
mi juventud de barrio.
Quise ir a la guerra, para pararla,
Pero me detuvieron a mitad del camino.
Luego me salió una oficina,
Donde trabajo como si fuera tonta,
-pero Dios y el botones saben que no lo soy-.
Escribo por las noches
Y voy al campo mucho.
Todos los míos han muerto hace años
Y estoy más sola que yo misma.
He publicado versos en todos los calendarios,
Escribo en un periódico de niños,
Y quiero comprarme a plazos una flor natural
Como las que le dan a Pemán algunas veces.

ENGLISH SOUNDS

Remember that pronouncing English is not simply "reading" what you see in writing as if it was written in Spanish. Some English sounds do not occur in our language. You have to pay attention to these different sounds although the letters to represent them are the same as in Spanish! 

Here you have two different charts with the 12 English vowels and 8 diphthongs:

Let's read some information about the seasons! 

from: http://weather-facts.com/seasons-facts.php

 Facts about the seasons

The four seasons (winter, spring, summer, autumn) have a huge impact on how we lead our daily lives. This ranges from the food we eat, the drinks we drink, the clothes we wear and the activities we take part in. We even listen to different music, for example, christmas carols in winter.

Winter - December, January, February

Spring - March, April, May

Summer - June, July, August

Autumn - September, October, November

Winter
During the winter months the current year ends and a new year starts. The days are shorter and often very cold. Sometimes the precipitation will fall as sleet and snow, and quite often we wake up in the morning to frost and ice on the floor. Winter is usually cold and wet, however it does differ in other parts of the world.

Spring
It's simple to know when spring is arriving. The sun rises in the earlier hours of the morning and sets later on in the afternoon. The days get slightly warmer. Spring flowers start to appear, birds start building their nests and the farmers deliver new-born lambs. Weather in spring is very varied. Some days it may be cold enough to snow, and some days it is warm enough to play out in the garden. Spring months can also be awfully windy. Weather varies though in spring, worldwide. 

Summer
Summer is something we usually all look forward to. The days become both warmer and longer, the sun shines, and the school holidays provide us plenty of time to go out and enjoy ourselves. Although sunny weather is very fun and we can spend more time outside, the sun's rays can harm our bodies. There are some things you need to do to protect yourselves. You shouldn't ever look straight at the sun because it will damage your eyes. Additionally, you have to protect your skin from the suns rays so that you don't get sunburned. Summer weather can vary, but if we are lucky, June, July and August will bring some warm sunny days. 

Autumn
Autumn is a season filled with change. Days become shorter and, although it is often warm and sunny during the daytime, it can be cold at night. In Autumn, leaves fall off the trees and hedges. Additionally, Autumn can bring strong winds and a lot of rain.
