2º BACHILLERATO A

GOOD MORNING

I HAVEN'T HAD MANY WRITINGS UNIT 10. ONLY 2, TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH.
I HOPE YOU ARE NOT TOO BUSY TO DO IT.

I KNOW IT IS COMPLICATED TO VISIT THE VIRTUAL CLASSROOM, BECAUSE IT SEEMS IT DOESN'T WORK THESE DAYS DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT WILL PROBABLY BE USING IT AS A TEACHING TOOL. BUT KEEP TRYING.

ANYWAY I WILL TRY TO UPLOAD 'EVAU' PRACTICE TEXTS HERE OR SEND IT TO ONE OF YOU VIA EMAIL AND YOU DISTRIBUTE IT AMONG YOUR CLASSMATES.
