This is all Folks!

Tuesday 25^th

So, this is it! End of term!

You made great desserts!

Jorge and César’s chocolate biscuits were delicious! (You have to give me the recipe (the instructions) with the exact quantities of the ingredients!)

Marcos,I didn’t know that you could take advantage of (use) the leftover bread (bread from previous days) and make delicious desserts!

Dani’s cookies were also nice but he wasn’t very sure about how he had made them. But he knew that you need yeast.

We couldn’t taste Amara’s rice pudding because we didn’t have a spoon! But it looked delicious!

So, Sergio, Paula, this is what you missed for not coming to English last Tuesday!

We hope to see you again next week!

We will start the third and last term for this course.

Summer holidays, there we are!!! But, Easter is first!

And the winners of this term are…

1^st Place, César

2^nd Place Marcos!!!

Congratulations to you both!

And finally I would like to go through (to review) everything you have learnt with us this term.

Tuesday 18^th March

Hello! 

So, this is the end of the term!

What did we do in class? We finished talking about jobs, for the moment!

Why do you like your job?

·         He’s a mechanic. He repairs planes. He likes his job because he likes working with machines.

·         She is a sports instructor. She works in a hotel in Miami Beach. She works outside. She likes her job because it’s funny to teach people how to play tennis and volleyball.

·         He is a police officer. He wears a uniform. He likes his job because he helps people and arrests criminals.

What skills and qualities do you have?

What are you going to be?

·         They’re very gentle. They aren’t afraid of animals. They enjoy touching them. They can understand how they feel. They are going to be vets.

We listened to some people telling us what they do at work and why they like their jobs.

·         He uses the internet and attends to meetings. He sometimes goes on business trips. He likes his job because every day is different.

·         She answers questions all the time and she speaks on the phone. She doesn’t like her job because it’s boring.

And you told me what you would like to be.

What would you like to be when you grow up?

·         Would you like to be a nursery teacher because you like children?

·          Would like to be a chemist because you like chemistry?

·          Would like to be a flight attendant because you like planes? Or a vet, because you like animals?

We say “an acrobat” because “acrobat” begins with a vowel sound “a”. We don’t say “a uniform”, because “u” in “uniform” isn’t a vowel sound.

We say “an hour” because “h” isn’t pronounced and “hour” begins with a vowel sound, not letter.

Don’t forget to make something for “School Dinner” on Tuesday, so as to celebrate the end of the term.
