Gonna Miss You!

Dear All,

I will miss you so much! I have enjoyed every Friday with you... I´m very proud of you. You have learnt a lot... and I know it was difficult and hard... but you are excellent students and you always made me smile...

Esta semana no va a haber tarea... pero si... una consigna... se animan a dejar un comentario? Una anécdota, una o dos palabras, o lo que se llevan de este curso... (o las 3!).

Hay una encuesta para que respondan... más de una opción es posible... y un video para divertirse...a ver si les sale la coreo! jajaja ;)

También hay una nueva opción abajo con la cuál pueden clasificar las entradas.... Hagan un click.. y listo...

I love U... I wish you all the best,

Yanina :)

Collocations!!

Hello there!

We worked with collocations. They are defined as two or three words that often go together.

We're going to work with DO & MAKE (los dos verbos siginifican "Hacer").

DO= se usa para expresar acciones de rutina o trabajos del hogar generalmente. También para ideas generales.

Make= se usa para expresar construcción, edificación o creación.

Link 1: Theory in English.

http://esl.about.com/cs/beginner/a/a_makedo.htm

Link 2: Practice. (It's a bit difficult. Do not worry if you cannot make it well).
