Hi again pals!
How is it going? This week compared to last week it's been a relaxing week as for grammar points ;-)
Last week Sybil introduced "used to" and this week we studied it in depth and compared it to repeated actions at present with "usually".
The topic to talk about it was friendship and we had fun listening to two stories about people meeting old friends with Friends Reunited web site and reading a text about editing your friends. We also learnt some words and expresions about friendship and some get expressions too. Moreover, we practised listening and producing sounds /s/ and /z/ in the spelling -se.
Sybil taught different ways to agree and disagree with people and did a listening exercise about friendship to make conversations. She also helped you to revise second and third conditionals.
Finally, we talked about the importance of the International Working Women's Day. As homework, you have to create a Power Point presentation (2 or 3 slides maximum) about an English-speaking woman who has made progress in history and whose efforts have changed women's lives. Then, upload it using www.slideshare.com and send me the embed code of your presentation so that I can upload it on our Coeducation Blog!!!

A2 - Weekly summary
Hi everybody!
The weekly summary is going to be a bit complicated this time! Groups go at a different pace but that's not a problem ;-)
Group A revised unit 5A and finished unit 5B too. Both units are very important because we studied verb patterns: verbs with infinitive with "to" and verbs with -ing form. Group C finished unit 5A and started unit 5B. Therefore, we have to finish studying verbs with -ing form.
Sybil showed you expression about how to ask for information and how to get to some places. That's very useful when you travel abroad!
Finally, we also watched a video about the International Women's Day and, as homework, you have to create an A4 poster about an important English-speaking woman in history and bring it to class next day. Here you are the video we watched:
Finally, I want to remind you that next Friday 2nd March there's class at 16h. I hope you come, we'll revise grammar points, do a listening exercise and practise the speaking skill.

B1 - Weekly summary
Hi pals!
This week's been focused on conditional sentences, mainly the introduction, explanation and practice of the Third Conditional type through a bad / good luck topic. We also paid attention to the pronunciation of "would have" and "wouldn't have" at a normal speaking speed.
You also revised and practised the three types of conditionals with Sybil and she also introduced the grammar structure "used to" which we are going to study next week. Then, we had a look at the writing section - this time it's about describing events and festivals. Remember you have to bring your composition on Tuesday if you want to have it corrected before the examination period.
I also uploaded an extra worksheet about conditional sentences together with its answer key.
Have a nice weekend! C u!

Hi everybody!
We've been very busy this week talking about houses and the different types of houses we can live in. So, we learnt some useful vocabulary to describe houses, indoor and outdoor features, furniture and appliances. Here you are the power point presentation I showed in class.
We also read a text about Victorian and Elisabethan houses and introduced the grammar structure "used to" to talk about habitual things we did in the past but we don't do it now anymore. You also revised superlatives with Sybil.
Then, we did a listening exercise to revise the topics and grammar points studied so far and we focused on the writing section of the book: describing the place you live in. Therefore, you have to write a composition about the place you live in and the description of your house too as homework.
Finally, we started a new unit and talk about how to survive at a party when you don't know anyone. This unit is very important because we are going to study verb patterns, that is, verbs followed by the infinitive with "to" and verbs followed by -ing form.
I've uploaded the key for the extra comparatives and superlatives worksheet, it's in Docs.
Have a nice weekend and do not forget to give in your compositions next day!

The Weekly Review Newspaper
For a non-native speaker it could be complicated to practise a foreign language out of the classroom but daily and frequent contact with English is essential to learn and familiarize yourself with English. This is an online newspaper called The Weekly Review, which brings English to students in a more dynamic and fun way. The Weekly Review is divided into different zones.
Culture Vulture: A part on general knowledge which aims to expand our horizons on topics such as History, Art, Geography and Music.
Grammar Under the Hammer: A perfect section to practise and to clarify any doubts one may have concerning grammar.
Think Language: This last section is created to be a little bit critical with the language. Particularly when being in front of a language that has got many verbal forms for different language contexts.
Other sections, Smile for a While for example, bring some humour to English and its culture. Every week some jokes will be posted in order to make the users smile.
Last but not least, there is a section dedicated to words and foreign expressions, especially focused on Latin because many of the words in English have a Latin origin.
It's now your turn to visit The Weekly Review to improve and practice your English! Have fun!
