Hello!

Today I'll record some of the interviews. Raul is not coming so we'll do what we can.

Last week we did the exam and we practiced the interviews, we didn't do anything new.

As we were learning words about nature here is some HOMEWORK for you (for Irene):http://www.englishexercises.org/makeagame/viewgame.asp?id=9289 You can do all the exercises.

Hello!

Last Friday we reviewed vocabulary: nature and hobbies.

We also practiced the interviews we are going to record in video. Irene is going to be a nurse who lives in London. Alejandro and Raul are both football players and they both play for the same team, the Real Madrid. Alvaro was did not come to class, but he is also going to be a football player.

Some of the students have to ask the questions, be the interviewers, and these are the questions they must ask:

What's your name?
How old are you?
What do you do?
Where do you work? or What team do you play for?
Where are you from?
Where do you live?
Who do you live with?
How many children have you got?
What are their names?
What do you like doing in your free time?


Please, Irene and Raul, practice the questions. Not all the questions are for everybody.

HOMEWORK

Answer the questions:

1. How many chairs are there in your living room?

2. Is there a desk in your bedroom?

3. Are there any pictures in your kitchen?

4. Is there a lamp next to your bed?

5. Is there a sharpener in your pencil case?

Examples:  Is there a book case in your living room? Yes, there is.
Are  there any toys on your bed? No, there aren't, the toys are in the toybox.

Hello!

Last week we continued practicing sentences like " I like playing the flute" or " I don't like fishing"
Students filled a chart with the names of 5 children and pictures of various activities. They had to decide what activities the children liked and which ones they didn't. Then they had to talk to a partner and ask questions such as:

Does Mary like eating vegetables?
And their partner had to answer:

Yes, she does
or
No, she doesn't

That way students could fill in the second chart, which had to look the same as their partner's.

Later students tried to imagine a character and answer a number of questions about them:

What's your name?
How old are you?
Where do you live?
What's your job?
Who do you live with?
What do you like doing in your free time?

And some other questions unique to each character. 

It was "mixing day", so after the break, students got together with a group of older children which were teaching them things about the summer holidays through some fun activities, like drawing a picture and searching for words.
