 Since the last post we have done a lot of things. We began unit 3 "Out and about" and started focusing on volabulary related with sightseeing. Then, we worked on a text which talks about the life of Saroo, a man who lost his family when he was just a child. That story was heartwarming... At the next lesson, we did some activities about vocabulary of travel arrangements and what verbs we need to use in some cases. Furthermore, we talked about the modal verbs to refresh our memories. Finally, we studied how to do a good narrative. Also, I handed in my story wich was about a trouble that my family and I came across on the past holidays.

The last effort

We are in the final stretch of our last academic year before university, so it is crucial to give and do our best. I have started unit 6, which is focussed on job´s topic. In the first lesson we practised with some useful vocabulary about work. Everyone agreed that it was going to be extremely helpful for our future. Later, we looked into a text that talked about how people live thanks to scrapping-metal companies. It is unbelievable the profit that could be made by just recycling junk. Finally, we started working on the relative clauses, which are not diffcult for me.

Verbe tenses, reading and writing

 In the last two previous weeks we have been working on some verbe tenses: present simple, present continuous, past simple, past continuous, present perfect simple, past perfect simple and past perfect continuous. For me, the most difficult one was the past perfect continuous, but currently with the work we did, I understand it. Also, we worked on the interrogative forms. I always miss in some phrases, so I have to focus on them. In the last class we were doing a reading that I finished on time getting a good result, so it isn´t a problem for me. Finally, in that same class we read a for and against writing and the teacher explained some tips like the writing process and a few issues to focus on.
