Dear classmates,
I write here about the class of wendsday from B.1 conversation.
Firstly we were talking about the vocabulary for rent a house or a flat, the differents names of the areas of Madrid, convenient, picturesque or lively area for example.
Also, Sergio and me practice a funny dialogue that it was made for Sergio and Marisa. The conversation was about the wish of Cristiano Ronaldo to rent a big house, it was very entertaining;)
For the other hand, we saw a Simpsons episode where Milhouse falls in love and the friendship between Bart and Milhouse was broken. We were talking about the story of the episode and answered the comprehension questions.
For the next monday class, we should write the answers of the discussion questions from the same Simpsons archive. I paste here;

1.Did you have sex education classes in primary school or high school? If so, what was the attitude of the class? Of the teacher? Do you think this kind of class has a valid place in the primary or high school curriculum? Why or why not? What age should it begin?

2.What do you think of Bart’s behavior? Have you ever done something for revenge and then felt guilty? Have you ever felt jealous because a good firend had a girlfriend or boyfriend and suddenly had less time for you? If so, how did you deal with this problem?

3.In English, we call first love between teenagers (or even younger children) “puppy love”. Do you think that puppy love can ever be serious? What’s the most typical age?

4. Do you think that “hypnosis” courses ever work for changing behavior? Tell about your own experience or that of someone you know.

For Con B2

Sorry about the cold last class.  People who didn't see the video about Henry Kravis, please do so on your own.  I want to listen to the roleplays and related conversation questions.

After I think the topic of advertising fits well, between the topic of greed and that of Xmas! Here is one of 2 things we'll be listening to!
