A DEBATE....

Hi guys!!!

Last day, we were dealing with several expressions to establish a debate and you did it quite well..I want you to continue using this new vocabulary and these new linguistic expressions, here, at the blog...so I am going to display a new topic and I will be waiting for your opinions throughout the week.

The new topic is:

SHOUL YOU WATCH FILMS IN ORIGINAL VERSION WITH SUBTITLES OR SHOULD THEY BE DUBBED??

Now it is your turn guys!!!

A REVIEW OF A TV PROGRAMME

Hi all!!!

I want you to write a review of your favourite TV programme. Reviews often include positive and negative comments or ideas. We even use connectors of contrast to connect contrasting ideas...so, organise your ideas into paragraphs according to the plan below:

Before you write:

Choose a TV programme, describe what the programme is about, give your opinion of the programme and use connectors of contrast.

Write your review:

Paragraph 1: Introduce the programme. Include its name and type. State your opinion.

Paragraph 2: Give more details: the main characters, actors, what the programme is about and what you like and don´t like about it.

Paragraph 3: Say why you think readers will enjoy/ not enjoy the programme.

Deadline is 22nd January.

Enjoy the activity guys!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a very happy New Year with your family and friends. I´m sure you will all have a great break, so in your first participation of the year in our classroom blog, you should tell us about two things:

1.Your favourite part of the break or a funny story that happens to you.

AND...

2. Your New Year´s resolutions.

New projects are coming during this term...be ready, charge your battery, and start enjoying English right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOMETHING HAPPENED!!!!

Hi guys!!!

Our Christmas holidays are getting closer and closer...however, I have planned a tiny project for you to improve your writing.

The steps to follow are:

1. Think about a disaster or event you have experienced.
2. Make a comment on the blog explaining to your classmates what this event is about.
3. Organise your ideas into paragraphs and write a composition:

• Introducing the people, the place and the time.
• Write what happened in the story. Describe the characters´feelings
• Write how the story ends.

Some hints for your story would be:

• Who the story is about
• When and where the story happened
• Events in the story.
• The characters´feelings about the events.
• How the story ends.

That´s all for now guys, good luck and good job!!!!
