Thursday 29th January

Hello boys!! How are you? I hope you're ok since tomorrow is nearly Friday, almost weekend!! and you can rest and relax and have a good time. Maybe you are going to prepare or just have your favourite meal; it could be great to enjoy a super breakfast, couldn't it?

Last class we learned  voc related to food and meals as breakfast, lunch, dinner, a cup of tea, a sandwich, a salad, spicy, delicious, taugh.... and some others.We were listening to people talking in a restaurant ordering their meals Your activities were right.

Also we were doing many activities about the use of the verb DO/DOES....... YOU/(S)HE LIKE.....? Be careful!!
You need to practise a lot because still you commit many mistakes. I couldn't believe it... So please, ha a look again to the auxliary DO, ok? Next day we will practice more.

Here you have a song I hope you like





Next day we'll listen in class.

More things and very important: DO NOT FORGET TO DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!! If you don't bring it you'll get no points. You have to work with theworksheet I gave you; translate the short texts and answer the questions.

Going on with our Pet's travels next week we'll know (a bit more) about Spain  thanks to Adrian. Remember to take our Dragon's experience when visiting this country and tell us about it, ok?

Hello class!! How are you? I guess you're ok since it's nearly weekend and you can rest and relax and have a good time. Maybe you are going to practice your favourite sports; that could be fine now that you have to prepare a presentation about one of them... I hope not everybody speaks about football.

Last class we learned more voc related to sports as sailing, cricket, rowing, fencing... and equipment we use to practice them, as helmet, bat, racquet, stick... We were listening to some kids talking about their favourite sports and when they practice and things like that. Your activities were right.

Also we were doing many activities about the use of the verb CAN for abilitity. Remember that we use this verb the same for all the pronouns: we DO NOT add the final -s to the 3rd person singular. And very important: we DO NOT say "TO" before the infinitive: we say I can ride a bike, but we do not say I can to  ride a bike. Be careful!!

After doing lots of things we listened to a very popular song, always related to sports: "We are the Champions" You really enjoyed the song although you didn't complete all the gaps very well... Here you have in case you want to try again:



To finish with this topic about sports I asked you to prepare a kind of presentation about your favourite one covering these points:


  • Choose a sport
  • Look for relevant information
  • Prepare a presentation (including rules, equipment...)
  • Add a picture or photograph
And very important: DO NOT FORGET!!! If you don't bring your homework you'll get no points.

Going on with our Pet's travels next week we'll know about Japan thanks to Adrian. Remember to take our Dragon's experience when visiting this country and tell us about it, ok?

To finish today here you have your points:

  1. Player 1: 15
  2. Player 2: 31
  3. Player 3: 31
  4. Player 4: 31
  5. Player 5: 32
  6. Player 6: 28
  7. Player 7: 32
  8. Player 8: 14
These weeks you're doing a good job in class... if things go on like this we'll have 2 or more winners!!Let's see.

Be good, have fun, see you in class!

Bye!

Thursday 15th January




Hello class!! First of all Happy New Year and welcome to the second term of our course. I hope you have enjoyed these weeks of holidays and you're ready to work.

Last class we started a new topic, one you like a lot:SPORTS. I know you enjoy this topic since most of you practice sports. Even you showed you know  lots of words related to this.Let's see next week if you still like so much... I hope so in spite of the new voc you'll learn.

We practised lots of listening activities and speaking, too. I have to say you did better than the previous weeks, and that's always good.

Here you have the music we listened to when talking about motivation at sports:





Remember to bring your homework next day: you have to translate the text we practiced in class, we read the whole text and understood the new voc, so I think it's really easy. Saul, you have to do this craft based on the travels of our pet; this term we'll work with  different cultures around the world taking the dragon as the character of these adventures. Don't forget to tell us about your country.

And to finish here you have our points:


  1. Player 1: 25
  2. Player 2: 25
  3. Player 3: 25
  4. Player 4: 26
  5. Player 5: 25
  6. Player 6: 24
  7. Player 7: 26
  8. Player 8: 24
That's all!

Be good, have fun, see you in class.

Bye
