Greetings from Chicago!!!!

Hi everyone!!!

I arrived safely in Chicago a few days ago. It was a long trip, about 9 hours on the airplane, but not horrible. Now I'm here in Chicago getting to see all my family and friends for the first time in many months. It's quite hot here the past few days, about 35 degrees. How is everything in Salamanca? What have you guys been doing? I miss everyone and the school a lot! I've told everyone about our class and how much I enjoyed the year there. I'm going to Seattle today for my uncle's wedding. Seattle is in the state of Washington, on the west coast, about a 4 hour plane trip. I'll post some pictures when I'm there. I'll keep posting on the blog and I hope to hear from you all too! My email address is: cara.hageman@gmail.com, so you can email me and tell me all about what you're doing and practice your English too!

Hope to hear from you. Miss everyone!

OUR LAST PROJECT: MY CHILDHOOD

Hi everybody!!!

The end of our academic course is getting closer and nowadays we are dealing with past tenses in the classroom, that is the reason why we are going to put in practise all we have learnt, making a presentation about our childhood.

To make it properly, take into account these rules:

1. Select pictures of you, when you were a child, up to now.
2. You can use as many slides as you want but remember you only have 3 minutes for your whole presentation.
3. In each slide you should write a sentence using the past tense describing the picture of your childhood.
4. When you present your powerpoint to the rest of the class you should explain what you did in the pictures you have chosen and they can ask you as many questions as they want.

Here you are a sample presentation about my childhood. Enjoy it and do your best!!!
