Have a good weekend!!!                    See you next week!

Hi! Tell me about your hobbies!

Listening on Hobbies

Hello, I’m your new teacher.

 My name’s Mª Ángeles. Nice to meet you!

Let’s  start working!

So, our interviewers conducted a survey to find out the best hobby.

Do you remember the questions:

What’s your hobby? What do you like about it? Who do you play with / do your hobby with? Where do you play it / do it? What do you like about it? Can you remember a special moment (e.g. wining a medal / a trophy / beating another team / finding something unusual...)

Do you think you could interview your father, your mother or another member of the family about their hobbies?

You can use the questions above.

And for homework: find a photo or a picture related to holidays. It could be a photo of one of the holidays you had or a photo from a magazine. Because  we’re going to talk about hols. in our next class. (hols means holidays)

We played “Stop” to revise vocabulary. We also wrote high numbers.

And ...this is the result of our game

Games we Play

Hi everybody!

In our class today, we talked about Halloween.
You did lots of funny things!

We worked a little and we play, play, play…

First, you have to describe your hobbies without saying the name. And we have to guess what hobby it is.

You have to spell your names. Yes, well done!

Let´s play! Hide the rubber and give us clues so that we can find it. Is it above, below, under, behind, in front of…the chair? The table? In your pocket?

We learnt new words: coat hanger, pocket, to stick.

OH! I think you were waiting for this:
