My plans for the weekend



Hi people!! Have you decided what are you going to do next weekend?

Are you going to go to some exciting place or are you going to stay at home? Are you going to play a football or basketball match? Are you going to go out with your friends or family?

This weekend I'm going to meet some old friends from University. I'm going to meet them in Barcelona and we are going to have dinner together.

On Saturday I'm going to go to the mountain with my family (my sister, my brother-in-law, my nephew Marc and my niece Anna). After that, I'm going to meet my cousin and after having dinner, we are going to go to the cinema.

On Sunday I'm going to rest all the day because on Monday I'm going to work again and I need energy!

What about you? Come on! Tell us what are you going to do next weekend!

Exam - 7th March

Hi everybody! How are you?

Remember that tomorrow you've got an Exam (Unit 5).

You should review all the vocabulary that we've studied in the unit (pollution, materials, verbs related to the environment...). For the grammar activities you should study and review the activities that we did in class related to the use of will or won't and to the use of the First Conditional.

There will also be a reading activity and the writing activity. In the writing activity, you will have to write a composition about life in the future (I will give you some words to use).

So, study a lot and... GOOD LUCK!

A funny game


Hi people!
How are you today? Have you had a nice weekend? I hope so...
Today I suggest you a very funny and interesting game.
In the USA there is a very popular TV programme called "Are you smarter than a Fifth Grader?". It's a Quizz Show in which some adult contestants play answering questions against boys and girls who are in the Fifth Grade in school (like Fifth of Primary in Catalonia). And what are the questions about? The questions are about different topics studied by the Fifth Grade students (Geography, Language, Maths...). The most funny thing about it is the "punishment" for the adult contestants that lose. If the adult contestants lose the game, they admit and tell the audience (in front of the camera)the following statement: "I'm not Smarter than a Fifth Grader".
Are you ready for a good time? Do you want to check if you are smarter than a Fifth Grader? So, let's try it: click www.fox.com/areyousmarter and click a link to play online. You're going to have a good time!
And remember to write your opinion in the blog! So, we can share the experience!
Have a nice day!
