Countdown for the End of the Course and ...Assessment Test!

Wednesday 10^th June

Hi girls!

How are you?

I guess (think, imagine) you didn’t go to the swimming pool yesterday! The weather has changed so much that it looks like (seems) autumn instead of summer! I hope the storms will go away (disappear) before next Wednesday because… What about our outdoor games if it rains!!!! What are we going to do?

Last Wednesday, we had an assessment test. It seems to me (I think) that you didn’t revise nor did you look at the blog!

Laura and Noelia missed the test!

Generally speaking, listening and reading are more or less OK.

As for grammar, you should revise the conditionals. Remember:

·        Zero conditional. (Real situation/ facts)

We use if + present simple                            present simple

If you begin the sentence with “if”, you have to use a comma.

·        First conditional.

·         Possible and very probable situation

We use if + present simple               will / won’t + infinitive

If it doesn’t rain on Saturday, we’ll go for a walk.

·         Instructions

We use if + present simple                                imperative

             If you can’t attend to the meeting, email us in advance.

·        Second conditional.

·        Unreal situation

If + past simple ------------------ would / wouldn’t + infinitive

                                                  (present conditional)

If I were you, I wouldn’t wear these shoes with that suit.

(You can use ‘were’ with all person of verb ‘to be’ in 2^nd conditional clauses)

·        Possible but very improbable situation

If + past simple ------------------ would / wouldn’t + infinitive

                                                   (present conditional)

If I won £5,000,000 on the lottery, I wouldn’t tell anyone, except my family.

…and that is exactly what you did!

Some of you should also revise quantifiers: much, many, little, few, too, enough etc.

As for reading, you should start reading the instructions of the exercises. If it says, “Cross out the incorrect option”, it doesn’t mean “circle the correct one.” That shows me that you don’t understand what you read!

In the reading part, you don’t have to copy the 
exact words from the text but answer the questions using your own words! In the writing, don’t translate word after word from Spanish into English! Most of the times it doesn’t make sense! (It doesn’t mean anything!)

That’s about the assessment test!

Don’t forget that you have the last part of our project next Wednesday, if the weather is OK. Bring the things you need for the games because the kids are really excited about competing in the park! They will take place before the break! Don’t forget it!
