These days of quarantine some of us have time to analyze things more deeply. We miss lots of things we usually do outdoors, but we are also enjoying many things we don't usually do indoors because of our stressful lives. In lesson 6A we are studying Object Pronouns. Complete the activities 1, 2 and 3 (page 84) and Grammar Bank 6A and then check this slide show and decide if you love or hate the activities, people and food you see in the photos. After that, make a comment to this blog and tell us what you love and hate about this quarantine. Remember you can read other comments and reply them.
In lesson 6A we also practise our reading and listening skills through the story The Glass Bottle. Complete units 4 and 5 to check your comprenhension. Then, you can also do activiy 6 for pronunciation. I'll send you the answers to these activities by e-mail so you can correct yourself. For further practice of reading and listening, you can use this website. I also recommend you to read and listen to these fairy tales through this You Tube video. If you have children, you can do this homework with them.
Finally, to practise your speaking, we are going to use a new tool, Flipgrid. I will send you a code by email; you have to use this code to record a video saying what you love and hate (or dislike) about this quarantine we are living.
That's all for now. Next week it's Easter so I will only publish a post to learn more about how English people celebrate this festivity.
Have a nice week, my dearest students. Please, keep safe and sound.
I made a video to demonstrate how to write a comment because some of you are having problems. As you saw, it is quite easy if you have a google account. I don't know if it is more difficult if you don't have Gmail.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, don't forget to make a comment on this post telling me what you love and hate about this quarantine. For example: I love the sunny days in Agaete; I love the rainy days in Agaete; I love the view from my house; I love my boyfriend's company; I love the music in my house ... What do I hate? I hate the extra silence in Agaete; I hate not seeing my mother and nephews (I miss them very much); I hate the news at the moment; I hate not being with my students in class. What about you?
Hello, goodnight.
ReplyDeleteI have already made my video but I am going to write other things that I like and don't like.
For example, I like music but I don't like the silence of my streets, not listen to car whistles, people talk, etc ...
I like having time for myself, but I don't like not be able to see the people I love.
I don't like my character and my mood swings, I've never felt this way.
I like to be with my dogs and play with them, but I don't like not be able to take them for a walk.
These are some examples of what I like and what I don't like.
Hope to see you soon, cheer up.
I don't like routines.
ReplyDeleteI like these days of necessary changes.
Work from home.
Exercise at home and talk to friends, I haven't seen for a long time.
!We can with this virus!.
Regards
Marisa Martín.
