OPTATIVA BATXILLERAT 2018-2019
Informació sobre l’Optativa
2a Llengua Estrangera – 2n Batxillerat
L’alumnat de francès
de segon de Batxillerat que hagi triat els itineraris amb franja d’optatives,
té la possibilitat d’escollir l’optativa d’Anglès
2a Llengua Estrangera a segon. Aquesta
matèria consta de 4 hores setmanals durant tot el curs escolar i està enfocada
en ampliar, reforçar i millorar la competència oral i escrita de la llengua
anglesa per a encarar una nova etapa acadèmica o laboral. Últimament rebem
informacions anunciant que l’alumnat universitari no podrà adquirir la
titulació del grau que estigui cursant si al final dels estudis universitaris
no pot certificar un domini d’una llengua estrangera de nivell B2 o First
Certificate.
Des del Departament de Llengües Estrangeres oferim la
possibilitat de presentar l’alumnat que ho desitgi als exàmens oficials de
l’EOI (Escola Oficial d’Idiomes) en la convocatòria extraordinària (febrer) o
ordinària (juny) de les proves lliures d’anglès. Cadascú a la convocatòria
corresponent segons el nivell adquirit. Recentment l’EOI també ha introduït la
convocatòria ordinària de nivell C1.
Al llarg del curs es facilitarà la informació necessària per
a l’obtenció del certificat pertinent.
Certificats:
EOI nivell intermedi (B1
/ PET)
EOI nivell avançat (B2
/ FCE)
EOI certificat nivell C1 (C1 / CAE)
El fet de dedicar 4 hores setmanals a l’estudi d’una llengua
estrangera, ens dóna la possibilitat de practicar les quatre destreses
necessàries (producció oral, producció escrita, comprensió auditiva i
comprensió escrita) per a adquirir un bon domini de l’anglès.

Books are great friends and teachers. They provide distraction, relief, laughter and truth when you need it. They allow us to reflect who we are, in the privacy of our own minds.
But wouldn't you like to share your thoughts and feelings after reading a special book? You could learn about its background as well.Then it's time to join our brand new BOOK CLUB @angeletalectora. We'll have chats in English, Catalan, Spanish, French...as you wish.
Once you've grabbed a copy you have about 1 month to read it.
Our first chat will be held on 23April "Saint George's Day" in the school library. There will be a little surprise!
Junior group: Phillip Pullman's El llibre de la pols (Carme Palà)
