WEEK 5 (2): ACTIVIDADES PARA REPASAR FUNCIONES Y ESTRUCTURAS

Como lo prometí, aquí les envío actividades de repaso de las funciones y estructuras que hemos visto hasta ahora en el curso. Haciendo estas actividades tras haber repasado las explicaciones (blog y clase) les prepararán correctamente para el examen del lunes 8.

1. Ejercicios para practicar el Imperativo:
a) Primer test.
b) Segundo test.
c) Tercer test.

2. Ejercicios de oraciones con adverbios:
a) Adverbios de tiempo: Pasado Simple vs. Pasado Perfecto (Explicación + test al final de la página).
b) Adverbios de tiempo en oraciones de futuro (Explicación y test).

IMPORTANTE: Para evaluarles su trabajo, traigan a clase los tests imprimidos. Muchas gracias.

Week 5: Reading Activities

Dear students!

Como lo más seguro es que tengan una actividad de comprensión de lectura en su examen del lunes, aquí les dejo unos ejercicios para que lo practiquen. Se trata de unos textos cortos en inglés, de nivel intermedio, acompañados de unas preguntas de opción múltiple con comprobación de si han acertado o no (para ello, pinchen donde pone "Grade me!", al final de la última pregunta).  Impriman los reportes de cada lectura, y tráiganlos para evaluarles yo su trabajo.

Como siempre, para buscar el vocabulario desconocido o difícil, recurran al diccionario online. IMPORTANTE: El día del examen no podrán usar diccionarios, por lo tanto estúdiense todo el vocabulario obligatorio, incluidos adverbios y verbos frasales. 

a) Biofuels and the Environment.
b) Airbus Crisis Over.
c) Ada Lovelace.

Las actividades que quedaron por hacer de la WEEK 3

Dear students!

In this entry you will find 3 activities from the book Style 3. It is important that you write them down in your notebook. Next Monday I will start the class asking you about activity 7.

Please, note that this work is DIFFERENT from the one that you have to prepare for WEEK 4.

Have a nice week and keep up the good work!

 

Explicación de la actividad 5: Para hacer la actividad necesitas haber hecho primero la actividad 4. Completa las oraciones en 5 usando la historia en 4 (ordenada por ti). Una vez que hayas acabado las oraciones, escucha el AUDIO titulado A BAD ACCIDENT, que podrán encontrar arriba, al principio del blog.
