Let's try with poetry

Hi, people!

We are entering the last step of our course. It is time to go further into the English language. Let's try with some poetry. Here is a link to one of the most famous songs of the seventies: "Hotel California".

Listen to the song. Enjoy it.

Then listen and read de lyrics in this other link.

We are going to discuss the meaning of this poem.

Bye. Alberto

PS. Download de lyrics here and complete the gaps. Discuss

Oral practice.What you know

Hi, there!

We've been reviewing some skills we have learned since we started in first grade. Check this file and try to complete it. Then create your own version.

Let's see what we remember.

Bye. Alberto.

Instruction, obligation and duty

Hi, there!

Everyday we have to do a lot of things. Maybe we have to get up early in the morning, and we have to go to work or go to school.

We have to help at home and someone leave instructions for us: "get some food, do the dishes; clean your room", and so on. All of them are duties we have to accomplish.

There are also things we do not have to do. We can decide.

Comment on what you or your friend has to do. Also, there is a link to practice this grammar issue. Go and try the exercise.

See you. Alberto

What's next for Luis Suarez?

We went to the theatre

Dear students:

On Friday, May 9th, we went to "Sala Verdi", and enjoyed Florencio Sanchez' play "Los Muertos", by the "La Comedia Nacional".

This is a great opportunity to apply our English into the real world. By adding comments below, we can tell our readers about the play, the characters and the plot. Besides, here is a link to a review published in "Caras & Caretas", in case you didn't go.

Welcome to the blog. Place your comment.

We have just completed our Preliminary Test

Hi!

This Friday we have tried a very special test. Everyone was able to check with other classmates, and many students explained, teach or learn to and from others.

This has been a cooperative learning activity. Some are shocked!

Have a nice weekend
