NEW TOPIC: SPORTS

Hi guys!!! We start a new and motivating topic: SPORTS. I would like to know lots of things about you and your interests in terms of sports....
In order to introduce this topic, last Wednesday we watched a video about SILLY SPORTS IN THE UK, didn´t we?? Now it is your turn to comment and post your opinions on this video. I would like to know things such as, the sport you liked most, the one you liked least and the one you´d like to try.
New oral project will come in this new topic to know if you are good or bad at sports. Be ready for a challenging week.

READY FOR THE AMERICANS!!!

Brochures

All of your brochures turned out fantastic!  Here are two examples of the work some of your classmates did.



Homework for Monday

Hi everyone-
I want to make sure that everyone is clear on the homework for Monday.  You need to have two things.

1. The name of the monument, place or attraction in Britain that you have selected.
2. At least one sheet of information about your place.  This can be information you've found online or in books.  It needs to be in ENGLISH!

Remember: You DO NOT need to have started making your brochure yet.  Right now all you need to have is some of the basic information---start learning about your monument.

Post if you have any questions or concerns.  Otherwise, we will see you Monday.
