B2.2 last classes: excellent summary

 I hope you are all enjoying your holidays. Laura Fernández from the Friday class has made an EXCELLENT summary Here it is:

Hi. I’m Laura and here you have my summary of last Saturday.

1.      At first, we spoke about the Oral Project. Kate gave us some advice about the Project.  We read the Project Organiser which is here in the blog.

2.      When all the class arrived at classroom, we moved on with lesson 10, Health and illness. We were going to start with the vocabulary related to operations in page 71 but we reminded Kate we had already done it last day.  Therefore, we studied in the same page the vague language (kind of/sort of, or so, somehow, some kind of). Then, we put it into effect in exercise A.

3.      Before the break, Kate asked us if we had read the text “East metss West. After that she wrote on the wall some questions related to western medicine, the “placebo effect”, etc., to talk about it in groups for 10-15 minutes. Then we shared our opinions loudly for the whole class.

4.      Break

5.      We did the Speaking in page 72 in pairs. Before this, we asked Kate about some unknown words, like:

Grumpy: gruñón

Moan: gemir

Demeanour: comportamiento

Mood swings: cambios de humor

Dwell on: extenderse/insistir en

Shrug off: desdeñar

Fit: sano, en buen estado físico

Bend:inclinarse

Crouch down: agacharse

6.      We checked the Vocabulary concerned to body actions in page 73.

7.      For homework: we have to print the document of modal auxiliaries (present and past forms) and study it. Also, we have to print the Project Organizer and deliver it next day.

See you in two weeks!

Nothing more to say after this very complete summary  except that, as I mentioned I am posting an exercise to complete about the present and perfect of th modal auxiliaries in affirmative or negative. The theme of the exercise is a little outdated, bu of course, the use of the modals doesn't change!   Click here:

 
 OH AND ......
After the break, we really only have 1 more obligatory lesson, lesson 11!

HAVE A GREAT EASTER WEEK!
