CLASSWORK Tuesday 8th January

1) WRITING: we wrote a short paragraph about the best and worst moments of the Xmas holidays. They are posted on the blog ("Improving our speaking skills by leaps and bounds"). We talked about the importance of using plenty of adjectives to improve the quality of our writing and, at the same time, trying to minimize the use of words such as "good", "very", "a lot", "nice".A Collocations dictionary is essential here.

2) VOCABULARY: multiple choice.(Photocopy)

3) FLASHCARDS: HEALTH. I presented them on the feltboard. I did some mimic and the class had to guess which word I meant. I´ll give everybody the photocopy next Tuesday.
