☘️ Missing accents can cost marks 🇪🇸
Can you find TAMBIÉN? 👀
This challenge follows LOOK → CHECK → REMEMBER → TRANSFER — training students to recognise accented words and use them accurately in their own writing.
The goal isn’t just to find the accent. It’s to recognise it when you need it.

☘️ Our Wellbeing Thursdays 🌿 Episode 4
Hola — I am Oide Rolando Hanlon, a teacher. Every Thursday, I share one quiet minute with our school community. No pressure, no guru talk. Just a moment that is yours.
Without noticing, we carry the whole day in our shoulders and jaw. So this week, we let it go. Lift your shoulders toward your ears. Hold for three slow seconds. Then drop them, and soften your jaw.
Feel the difference. That is the day loosening its grip, one small release at a time.
👉 Follow for one every Thursday.
Take care of the mind that carries you.
Tá sé ionat — it’s in you. 💚
