Hola
Hoy explicamos algo nuevo que no hemos explicado en clase.
Haremos práctica hoy y mañana y a partir del miércoles os pondré lectura, escuchar y repaso de puntos que hayamos visto. Así no se acumulan demasiadas cosas nuevas.

Ya sabéis que el verbo TO BE significa : ser/estar y también sabéis usarlo en PRESENTE

I AM    
YOU ARE
HE IS
SHE IS
IT IS
WE ARE
YOU ARE
THEY ARE

Hoy vamos a usarlo en PASADO

I WAS                                     I WAS NOT /WASN'T
YOU WERE                           YOU WERE NOT./ WEREN'T
HE WAS                                 HE WAS NOT/ WASN'T
SHE WAS                              SHE WAS NOT/ WASN'T
IT WAS                                  IT WAS NOT /WASN'T

1º BACHILLERATO A/D

WEEKLY READING:

I hope you remember last Monday we started our WEEKLY READING ROUTINE. Half of you read a text called: A STRANGE ENCOUNTER and half of you read a text called: SYMBIOSIS A MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING

It is easy to imagine that this week you are asked to read the text that you didn't read. If your read A STRANGE ENCOUNTER (and did activities and studied new vocabulary) , you are to do the same with the text SYMBIOSIS A MUTURAL UNDERSTANDING and the other way around.

REMINDER OF ACTIVITIES:

pg 27 A STRANGE ENCOUNTER and activity 5 on pg 26 (study vocabulary in the square CRITICAL ANALYSIS 3/4)

pg 37 SYMBIOSIS: A MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING and activity 4 on pg 36 and CRITICAL ANALYSIS 5/7)

VOCABULARY WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE TEST WHEN WE CAN DO IT (hopefully soon)

THIS IS THE TASK FOR TODAY. I WILL POST THE ANSWERS TOMORROW. 

For those of you interested in IMPROVING THEIR READING SKILLS:
