On Second Thoughts...

Wednesday 10^th December,

Hello everybody!

Have you finished your exams yet? I hope so because I’d like to see you before this year is over and next week, Wednesday 17^th is our last day of class for this year!

I also hope you to look on the blog, although I’m not sure if you ever do!

The title of this blog entry is ‘On second thoughts’; why? Because I had planned a class and I had to think again and do it in a different way.

  At first, only Natalia was present, she prepared a song. By the way, we decided to leave it for next class, as (because) nobody was coming.

Later, Laura arrived and the three of us started talking about music. They told me what kind of music they like; what their favourite singers or groups are; which concerts they’ve been to and which ones they would like to go. We also found out (learnt) about Laura’s connection with ‘El Canto del Loco’.

  As Laura hadn’t attended the previous class, we helped her to find the words in the weather word search and to fill in the gaps in the lyrics from ‘It’s raining men’.

  Then, Jorge came along! Good! There are four of us now!

We did a communication exercise that consisted in asking questions about different means of transport to find out (discover) how long it takes to go from London to different British cities by plane, coach or car.

How long does it take to get from London to Dublin by plane? It takes …
Do you know how long it takes to...

   ...to dry your wet iPhone?

...get to Mars

                         



                      

..to look like Miss World?.

  Find some more 'How long does it take...?'  
    answers and post them on the blog!

And to end the class, as I had promised to Natalia, we listened to ‘Firework’ by Kate Perry.

As I told you before, next Wednesday is our last class before Christmas and we are supposed to present our project. This quiz that you have, presumably, prepared. Don’t forget to bring your questions written on different cards (pieces of paper).

And we’ll also have our ‘Games Awards’

For the last game of this year I’ve decided to give a 7 to the three students who attended to class; same as the previous week.
