THE FAMILY
I have learned that you have to make the most of the time you spend with your family, especially to those who live far from home because it is posible that you don't see them in much time, and even more when there is quarantine.
MY ENGLISH
Thanks to classes and homeworks, I've been able to learn a lot of things and improve in others, especially in the project, because I have had to think very much to do them. Besides, I've been able devote more time to that subject.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE DOCTORS
I have learned the giant effort the doctors make to save us and protect us of Covid-19, besides of giving us recomendations and duties.
Bonus: Me and cooking
To get started, I am not a good cook, but I learnt some recipes as, for example, donuts and I am willing to improve.
MY QUARANTINE We have been in quarantine for two months and I think that all people had their moment of reflection. I think this quarantine is giving us a great life lesson to start taking advantage of small things. My quarantine wasn't the worst thing of the world. I did a lot of things. I listened to music, I helped my fathers with housework, I sometimes did sport, I spent time playing and talking with my family, I watched netflix... At first I missed my friend, high school and my grandfathers but then I found entertainment. For example, I spoke to my friends and family by video call.
REFLECTION TIME I have been in my room alone for a long time thinking and finally I was able to know more and learn about myself. I am grateful for the quarantine for these because I think that a fundamental part of our life is learning to know and love ourselves.
ÂżWHAT DID I LEARN? During quarantine I learned to value moments with my friends and family and the small gestures. Two months ago we couldn't hug your friend or your grandfather and now is when I realize that it was just a hug but it was full of importance to me. I also learned how to use technologies like the computer or a printer and now I know how to send an email with documents. The most important thing I learned is that we have to start fighting for what we want to achieve our objective starting now. You don't know when a global pandemic can comes and prevent you from achieving something so we must start fighting.
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING I want to express my gratitude from my heart to my parents for being with me, make me laugh and make these quarantine as easy as possible, I love them; to my teachers for facilitate our education and give us support.; and to the sanitary personal for take care of the sticks, you are heroes.
A NEW EXPERIENCE These two months of quarantine were a new experience from which we must all learn. We can go out now but we have to learn to live with the precaution and use mask to avoid the coronavirus. I know that we have learned something during the quarantine that we will put it into practice the rest of our lives.

DEAR TEACHER,
I am writing to thank you and all the teachers for the hard work you are doing in this coronavirus health crisis. We are learning in a different way, outside our schools with the computers and this is very difficult to use! But I think you are doing it very well, you are helping me a lot in my situation. A Kiss for you, teacher, I hope to see you son,
My Quarantine

First Weeks In the first weeks I started to listening more music (only in English because I don’t like the Spanish music) Including Ed Sheeran, I liked his music before the quarantine but in this quarantine he become my favourite singer! Others singers and groups that I am listening are: Imagine Dragons, Queen, Billie Eilish, One Direction…
He’s Ed Sheeran
After Holidays I started to see “Karmaland” is a Spanish serie where many youtubers play Minecraft and they make jokes between they and I laugh a lot with them. My two favourites are Rubius (his real name is Rubén) and Luzu (his real name is Borja) I liked Rubius before quarantine, in fact were an is my favourite youtuber, is too funny! But Luzu is very friendly and less known in the community, before to play Minecraft he played Pokémon, and I saw his old videos of Pokémon. Nowadays I playing
it in my Nintendo 3DS and my favorite is Pikachu! (but I liked Pokémon before to met Luzu and my favourite was Pikachu too) My favourite game of Pokemon is Detective Pikcahu and it has a movie, its great! He’s Luzu
He’s Rubius
He’s Pikachu (in the left in the game and in the right in the movie, the both in Detective Pikachu)
Three weeks ago Me and my friend Inés started to play Animal Crossing. We liked this game before quarantine but we started to played it more seriously, but we laugh a lot in the games. About Animal Crossing (recently left a new game: New Horizons, but we play a older game: New Leaf), is a game about be the mayor of your own village, you can break it up as you want, habited by animal villagers and merchants. My favourites are three: a villager squirrel, Marshal (Munchi in Spanish) a merchant dog, Digby (Candrés in Spanish) and a merchant otter, Lottie (Nuria in Spanish). Digby and Lottie work in a estate agent’s (inmobiliaria because I’m not sure about the translation) The favourites of Inés is a sheep, Timbra (Hebra in Spanish) and a dog, Isabelle (Canela in Spanish). She’ll be your secretary if you play, in the town hall, Isabelle is the twin sister of Digby too He’s Marshal She’s Timbra
In the left is Isabelle and in the right Digby
Here are a fanart of Lottie
QUARANTINE The quarantine was been a new experience for all. At first, I was scared because I thought I was going to get bored, but it wasn’t that bad. Sometimes I was stressed because I wanted to leave home but then I got used. I had a good time with my family at home. Sometimes, I was wrong because I wanted to see my friends or my grandparents. So, I think I learned some good things from this.
I learned to use the computer better, we had to send homework and teach online, I informed about some topics that I wanted to look information for a long time but never did, we learned to live in a different way, I listened a lot of music and I discovered new songs, I played the piano, I cooked some desserts although they not been very delicious and I saw a lot of series and films.
These last quarters have been difficult but whit effort we have send all the homeworks and get good marks. I liked making video calls because with that I saw my companions. I helped to my parents in the houseworks too.
So, I would no repeat it, but it was a experience that helped us to learn things and the most important, fight the virus.

I have learned many things about myself and I hope not to forget them when everything happens. I have learned to distinguish what is essential from what is not. I have realized what I love my damilia and I missed my friends and my cousins. I was scared because my grandfather is 101 years old and he is in the residence and he listened to all the grandparents who died. We had video conferences with him and he is very good. I congratulate all the health workers and citizens who are collaborating against the coronavirus.

My Quarantine
These last months we have lived an excepcional situation. I think that during a lot of time doing nothing we have learn a lot of many themes. Of course, all of us are appreciate the things that we had before of this, any simple thing that there was daily for us.
Now we can't do them, like going out with our friends, celebrity a birthday, practise a team sport and many things more.
QUARANTINE In this quarantine I have learned several things. The first of all is that I have realized that the people who are in government (they are neither critical nor in favor) have to be prepared for things of this type. The second is that I have realized that there are people who are stupid to such an extent knowing that this disease kills, skipping confinement putting us all at risk. The third thing is that I have realized that there is a lot of solidarity in many places like that neighborhood that gave food to people who were running out of money since they did not have a job, these people deserve many things but, nevertheless, there will not be Come out more than 3 times on television. Finally, we have realized that saying that was said before… "EL PUEBLO UNIDO JAMAS SERÁ VENCIDO”

A STRANGE END OF TERM Miguel García Rodríguez
The covid in my life This course has been the strangest one in my life, and I think for everyone too. A dangerous virus has come into our lives unexpectedly and without a previous advice, and it has changed our routine completely during the last three months. I´m afraid that nobody could believe what was going on at first, cause it was like living in a terror movie in which we all were involved. The scientists have been those who have imposed the rules that we had to comply, otherwise you could be fined to pay a rather high fee. On the other hand, studying at home without the teacher´s explanation , except just in some cases, hasn´t been a real lesson. Now I just hope this comes to and end as soon as possible, and coming back to our previous life. I feel like travelling, going out with my friends without a mask
MY QUARANTINE For me this quarantine has been very boring, but from my point of view it has helped us to spend more time with our families and to know how to value them more. It has been difficult not to see our friends and this course has been very difficult because we finished it from home and we had many tasks ... But it has helped me to spend more time with our families and love them more. Also this quarantine has helped me to leave the phone and do other things, like drawing, playing sports, cooking ... I have learned more English because I have entered in a course to learn more English, because next year I want to do 4 of ESO in USA. I know that I really like English and languages. This quarantine has also helped us to reduce pollution and to take better care of the environment. Not being able to use cars the pollution has dropped.

What have i learned this quarentine
?
Andrea FernĂĄndez Molano 2ESOC On Saturday March 14, 2020 Pedro Sanchez declared the estate of alarm in which he said that no citizen could leave their homes, except that to go to work or buy in order to feed themselves, because there was a very contagious virus called Covid-19 (better known as coronavirus)
During this estate of alarm, schools, medical centers, shopping centers, were closed, so the classes had to be given through a video call and the teachers have been seanding homeworks through the applications rayuela, google classroom, escholarium‌
In this state of alarm, appart from the tasks that the teachers have sent us, I have learned that
there are a lot of people who care about the health of all of us and people who have been working 24 hours a day to enforce the
.
laws and keep everyone safe
My quarantine
My
Quarantine
It has been a new experience that anyone has been able to learn ; I think we were not prepared for what happened , and that we are going to have to get used to the virus. It has also had an impact on nature, but in a cool way. The ozone layer is in better condition!
Points of view
PERSONAL In this quarantine I have learned several things that maybe one day will help me: -I have learned a bit of sign language. -I have learned more English listening to songs and watching series. -I have given my support to the black race and the LGBT community because we are all equal and do not have to judge us for it. -I have discovered that there are still good people in the world, like Harry Styles or Cole Sprouse, they got the peaceful protesters out of jail. -I have made new friends
HUMAN - From a human point of view it has been a new and difficult experience to face. United we can make this end, but it's not what's happening. Anyway, it was something new. I have learned that we are not prepared for what may come, and that we have to focus on things like that and not on soccer or political parties. And that we can continue making our lives even if we are like this

FAMILY
In this quarentine there have been good and things. I have spent a lot of time with the family especially with my sister. We are left with those moments of laughter, of films, of crazy things…It has helped us to know ourselver better.
The
best friend
It’s the one chat has been in my bad and good moments. If I was sad we would make a video call and we solved the problems an it made me laugh.She is irreplaceable. She has become ‘‘my second sister’’
Dear parents: I am writing to thank you for all the love and affection that you are giving me in these moments of crisis. Thank you so much for being with me and playing with me, helping me and entertaining me when I was bored, and thank you for not letting me alone on this and make it as easy as possible. I also want to express my gratitude to the health workers (including my mother) for taking care of the sick people as if they belonged to your family. For risking your health to save others , accompany and give them love so they know they aren't alone. We could escape to the pandemic thanks to you and it is also thanks to that we can nowadays go out for a walk or do sport with precaution, it is amazing to think. You are the heroes of this movie that is slowly ending, for fighting every day to end the coronavirus. We are very lucky to have people like you. My family is helping a lot during the pandemic, my father is working at the hospital, my mother is taking care of the sick and my grandmother is making masks and lab coats for the health workers. They are also taking care of my sister and me, I love them so much and I know that they are doing their best effort to help, they are incredible. When the quarantine ends, we are going to have a great time and take advantage of small things and every moment of our lives, I am sure. THANKS VERY MUCH AGAIN! Paula Suรกrez Gordo
quarantine March The quarantine started the 16 march. The first days of quarantine I couldn’t go outside, to buy, to walk the dog or for any other activity, so I was at home all the days. At home, the only things I did was, play Playstation 4, do the homework that the teachers sent me, do exercise and talk to my friends on the phone.
April April was the same as March. People of my age couldn’t go outside and adults could only go to the supermarket or take the dog out. My routine was the same as in March In the street there wasn’t any people.
May May was the best month. I started to go out, but only with my parents or my brother. The other things were the same as the other months. The 25th May was my birthday. This day I had a great time. Sice I was fourteen, I could go outside alone, with my friends or to do exercise.
June This month, classes end, I don't have to do more homework, and I can go out with my friends and do sports, but I have to be careful because the virus continues.
