What did you do? (Write down significant facts to back up your reasons)

I finished the stage in college and at this moment I am in practices in a school, in Ikaztegieta. Even so, I have not forgotten my English project, the Aurreskua, and I am also doing different things to learn new things about dancing and about practicing dance too.

On the one hand, I have tried to find new information about the dance like historical information on the Internet. After looking at different web sites, I found one link which I think that could be very interesting:

On the other hand, I asked for help to a friend ( Ane ) to practice the steps of this kind of dance with her. For that, she came to my house one afternoon and we stayed practicing the dance together during a long time.


How did you do it? (provide specific evidence (audio, visual…)

About the page of the internet, there is not any mystery. One day I started looking different pages and after a time, I found one and I started reading because I saw that could be interesting for my process.

On the other hand, like I said before, I asked a friend to help me and one afternoon she came to my house to practice the dance.


What did you learn? Would you make any suggestions for future practice?

After looking the link on the Internet, I learnt the different names which is known the dance, some historical dates and the steps that I have to remember when I will practice the dance.

About the day I stayed with my friend Ane, she gave me tricks to remember the order of the steps and that was very useful for me.


 Where did your knowledge come from? Which sources did you choose/use?

When our group decided that we were going to learn about the Aurreskua, I have to say that I knew which was the dance because I have seen in different events but I did not know how to dance it. Because of that, we asked to a friend to dance the Aurresku and we recorded it. Apart for that, I saw different videos on the Internet and I asked help to my friend Ane. With all that, I try to practice and to improve little by little.

What type of strategies and resources have you used when coming across obstacles?

Like I said before, I found help on the Internet and I asked for help to a friend to practice the dance with her and to told me about some tricks.


What type of involvement have you had so far in the project?

I think that I am trying to do all what it is in my hands to practice and learn the dance. Since I finished the stage at the university, I have taken some time to practice, alone or with the help of someone, so I agree with my process and with the work that I am doing.


Which skills do you think you have acquired?

I do not know if I have taken any skill until now. I think that to acquire some skills I have to be in a formal group as I was five years ago. When I went there, we practice during a long time and I was with lot of professional people so it was easier to learn more things and also to saw the things I did it wrong. Now the process is being different, I know that I am learning a dance that I did not know before and I am working hard to learn it, but I miss the opportunity to be as I was five years ago and learn and work as I did it before.


What type of strategies and resources are you using so as to improve your language skills?

During the week I go to an academy because I am working on the First Certificate Exam and there, I am improving my English level. Apart from that, I like reading books so I try to take notes about all the new vocabulary and I try to improve my English as much as possible.


How do you feel about the project so far? Talk about your feelings and emotions.


I am very happy with the work I am doing. I am trying to work a lot to learn about the dance, to improve my English and also my group project. I am very excited with the goal we have chosen and I want to achieve, so I am trying very hard to achieve it.



GOOGLE CLASROOM II                                                                                 85/100




On the one hand, I have continued finding new videos on the Internet, I have practiced more times with my friend Ane and also alone. In the other work ( the first Google classroom work ) I said that my friend Ane gave me tricks to remember the order of the steps, so this time, when I have been practicing alone, I tried to remember all that tricks to put them in practice.

On the other hand, last Thursday we had a meeting in Eskoriatza with our teachers ( Naiara and Alexander ) to speak about our final work. There, I stayed with Jone and Goiatz and I took time to ask how were they practicing the dance. Thereby, we helped each other giving new ideas and new strategies to improve during the process.


How did you do it? (provide specific evidence (audio, visual…)

When our group decided that we were going to learn about the Aurreskua we asked to a friend to dance the Aurresku and we recorded it. Thereby, we would have the opportunity to rehearse the dance at home and that has been what we have done. I have seen that video to rehearse and with the help of my friend Ane, I have tried to improve.



I have learned new things about the dance, for example, which are the steps of the dance because 15 days ago I did not know very good. At the present, I know all of the steps and little by little I am learning which is the order of them.






I have to emphasize that in this part of the work I do not have too much new information to add regarding the last time. When our group decided that we were going to learn about the Aurreskua, I have to say that I knew which was the dance because I have seen in different events but I did not know how to dance it. Because of that, we asked to a friend to dance the Aurresku and we recorded it. Apart from that, little by little I have been seeing different videos on the Internet, I have asked for help to my friend Ane again and I have saw the first video we recorded to a friend to rehearse at home too. With all that, I am trying to practice and to improve.





Like I said in the last work, I think that I am trying to do all what it is in my hand to practice and learn the dance. Since I finished the stage in the university, I have taken some time to practice, alone or with the help of someone. I want to add that I am very motivated with the challenge I have and with the work I am doing during the process.




The work is not being very easy. I am having more difficulties than I thought to learn all the steps. Even so, step by step and with the help of different people or videos, I am going forward and I am very motivated to continued rehearsing and improving.



What type of strategies and resources are you using so as to improve your language skills?



Like I said previously, during the week I go to an academy because I am working on the First Certificate Exam and there I am improving my English level. Apart from that, I like reading books so I try to take notes about all the new vocabulary I find and I try to speak in English as much as possible to learn new things.


How do you feel about the project so far? Talk about your feelings and emotions.



Little by little I see that I am improving a lot. At first I did not know which were the steps of the dance and how was the order of them. However, after rehearsing a lot and with the help of different people I am learning all that and I feel very happy. I am trying to work a lot to learn the dance, to improve my English and also to improve my group project. Like I said before, I am very excited with the goal we have chosen and I want to achieve it, so I am trying very hard to get it.



GOOGLE CLASROOM III


What did you do? (Write down significant facts to back up your reasons)

Since the last time I did this work I have continued learning and practicing the steps to improve. For that, I have done different things.

On the one hand, I have continued practicing the dance watching the video we recorded to Mikele and I tried remembering all the tricks that my friend Ane gave to me.

On the other hand, last Thursday, 11, we had a meeting in Eskoriatza with our teachers ( Naiara and Alexander ) to speak about our final work. There, I stayed with Jone and Goiatz and I took time to ask how were they practicing the dance. Since we were there, we rehearsed the dance and helped each other giving new ideas. In this case, Goiatz told us about one video she was using to practice the Aurreskua and I liked too much. Therefore, during this time I have used the video to practice:


How did you do it? (provide specific evidence (audio, visual…)


When our group decided that we were going to learn about the Aurreskua we asked to a friend to dance the Aurresku and we recorded it. Thereby, we would have the opportunity to rehearse the dance at home. We have given advices each other to practice and I have to say that I have seen the video that Goiatz taught us the last day we met in Eskoriatza and I have used to practice too.

What did you learn? Would you make any suggestions for future practice?

I have learned new things about the dance. On the one hand, which are the steps of the dance, because more or less one month ago I did not know very good and little by little I am learning the order of all of them. On the other hand, I know some trick to improve the dance and I have internalized the rhythm of the dance too, so, now with all that learning the steps is being much easier.



Where did your knowledge come from? Which sources did you choose/use?

I have to emphasize that in this part of the work I do not have too much new information to add regarding the last time. When our group decided that we were going to learn about the Aurreskua, I have to say that I knew which the dance was because I have seen in different events but I did not know how to dance it. Because of that, we asked to a friend to dance the Aurresku and we recorded it. Apart for that, little by little I have been seeing different videos on the Internet, I have asked for help to my friend Ane. Jone, Goiatz and me recorded the dance the last time we met in Eskoriatza to practice the dance, we have also helped each other giving new ideas and new strategies to improve and I saw one video that Goiatz recommended. With all that, I am trying to practice and to improve.


What type of strategies and resources have you used when coming across obstacles?


Like I said in the last work, I found help on the internet in different videos, I asked for help to a friend, I practiced the dance with the members of the group and I do it alone too.

What type of involvement have you had so far in the project?

Like I said in the last work, I think that I am trying to do all what it is in my hands to practice and learn the dance. Since I finished the stage in the university, I have taken some time to practice, alone or with the help of someone. I have seen different videos I have found on Youtube and other video that Goiatz recommended the day we met in Eskoriatza.


Which skills do you think you have acquired?


The work is not being very easy, even so, until I have learn the rhythm of the dance, some tricks to improve and which are the steps I have say that the process is being easier. Sometimes I forget the order of the steps or I anticipate the beat of the music. Even so, step by step, practicing a lot and with the help of different people or videos, I am going forward and I am very motivated to continued rehearsing and improving.


What type of strategies and resources are you using so as to improve your language skills?

Like I said previously, the strategies I am using to improve my English during the process do not change too much until now. During the week I go to an academy because I am working on the First Certificate Exam and there I am improving my English level. Apart from that, I have to say that I like reading books so I try to take notes about all the new vocabulary I find and try to learn it to improve my vocabulary. Apart from all that, I have to add that I have started giving English particular classes to some children and I am realizing that little by little I speak more fluently, I am getting more security and I am improving my vocabulary too.


How do you feel about the project so far? Talk about your feelings and emotions.

Little by little I see that I am improving a lot. At first I did not know which the steps of the dance were and how was the order of the them. However, after rehearsing a lot and with the help of different people and videos I am learning all and I feel very happy. I am trying to work a lot to learn the dance, to improve my English and also my group project. Like I said before, I am very excited with the goal we have chosen. I want to achieve it, so I am trying very hard to get it.
