Here´s the link to the short film we watched in class

Remember you have to write a story. You have two options:
a) Write chapter two for the story
b) Change the story at some point

Don´t forget to revise the characteristics for writing a story we worked on at the beginning of the year!!!! Check your copybook for the notes.

Love to all. Natalia

Practice Present Perfect

Hi guys: click on the following link, watch the movie scene and do activity I described there.

http://www.moviesegmentstoassessgrammargoals.blogspot.com.ar/search/label/present%20perfect

After that, write true answers about you using the actions described in activity I. DO NOT do activity II from the link. Example: "I´ve never eaten Mexican food" . Do it in your copybook. Also, you probably want to interview a member of your family asking, for example, "Having you ever eaten Mexican food?". Feel free to do so and we´ll share next class!!
Kisses to all. Natalia

PROJECT: "GREAT INVENTIONS"


Hi Cande, Mili and Bruno: here it goes the explanation for the project. 


For next Monday, bring information about the inventions we discussed last class, remember? (telephone, computer and internet, wheel, mobile phone, train, fridge, light, medicine, car. I don´t remember the others, jaja!). Choose only THREE of them and bring information: Who invented it? When? Where? What was the contribution to the world? and try to find some funny or unusual information about it!! or an anecdote!
Bring one picture of each invention too!!

We will prepare a "Did you know...?" to put up in the hall so the people that come to the Institute can learn about these inventions with the information you provided.

If you have questions, post it here in the blog as a comment and I will answer before Monday. 

See you around. Enjoy your weekend!
