Well, that's it, guys... Today was the last day of our course for this year (though who knows what the future may bring?)
Today we went through Tuesday's test - with relatively few "we'll-have-to-agree-to-disagree moments" - and Marga gave us an interesting presentation on how to encourage healthy habits in children (SEE VIDEO IN NEXT POST BELOW).

It just remains for me to encourage you to do as much as you can over the summer to keep up your English (read and listen in English, speak if you can, and why not write contributions to this blog?) - and to say THANK YOU once again for being a lovely group that it was a real pleasure to teach! See you all, I hope, for the meal next Friday.

Thurs 9/5

Due to the strike we had people missing, so we just did general revisión/skills work (interrupting, guessing occupations, including - bizarrely - prisoner and werewolf...). I also gave out another photocopy of a register-based exercise for homework.

Tuesday 7/5

Today we heard an interesting presentation by Chus on the European Qualifications Framework. We also did some work on register, transferring informal to formal English

Interesting link

The teacher Jesús Ángel González (Universidad de Cantabria) has compiled several european documents in this link.

Tues 30/4 & Thurs 2/5

We heard María's interesting presentation on a series of school activities. We also looked at expressions for cause and effect, watched a DVD extract on the "Noughties" and wrestled with cleft sentences.
