HABITS

Hoy por casualidad hemos tratado el siguiente tema:

I USUALLY... I DON'T USUALLY SOLER HACER ALGO PRESENTE
I'M USED TO.. I'M NOT USED TO ESTAR ACOSTUMBRADA PRESENTE
GET USED TO I DON'T/DIDN'T/WON'T ACOSTUMBRARSE PASADO/PRES/FUTURO
I USED TO I DIDN'T USE TO SOLÍA HACER ALGO PASADO

Se me olvidó comentaros que con los verbos relacionados con "acostumbrarse a algo" después del TO va el verbo+ing, es decir, con GET USED TO y I'M USED TO.

Ejercicios para practicar.
- Primero
- Segundo
- Tercero

De momento ahí tenéis para practicar. No se os olvide hacer la redacción!!

Sant valentine's day


Hello girls! Espero que os haya gustaso la primera clase. Aqui os dejko una serie de ejercicios para practicar lo tratado en clase. Pincha aqui y aqui

El proximo dia coincidira con el dia de san valentin asi que trataremos el tema.


Leed lo siguiente. Hare preguntas sobre el texto en clase.

Every February we celebrate Valentine's Day by giving flowers, candy and cards to those we love. We do this in honor of Saint Valentine. You may be wondering, "Who is St. Valentine"? Time to brush up on your Valentine's history!

Legend has it that Valentine was a priest who served during third century Rome. There was an Emperor at that time by the name of Claudius II. Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those that were married. With this thought in mind he outlawed marriage for young men in hopes of building a stronger military base. Supposedly, Valentine, decided this decree just wasn't fair and chose to marry young couples secretly. When Emperor Claudius II found out about Valentine's actions he had him put to death.

Another legend has it that Valentine was an imprisoned man who fell in love with his jailor's daughter. Before he was put to death he sent the first 'valentine' himself when he wrote her a letter and signed it 'Your Valentine', words still used on cards today.


Perhaps we'll never know the true identity and story behind the man named St. Valentine, but this much is for sure...February has been the month to celebrate love for a long time, dating clear back to the Middle Ages. In fact, Valentines ranks second only to Christmas in number of greeting cards sent.

Another valentine gentleman you may be wondering about is Cupid (Latin cupido, "desire"). In Roman mythology Cupid is the son of Venus, goddess of love. His counterpart in Greek mythology is Eros, god of love. Cupid is often said to be a mischievous boy who goes around wounding both gods and humans with his arrows, causing them to fall in love.

Karaoke en inglés

Hola chicas!

Espero que ya estéis empezando a hacer la tarea para el lunes! Qué ganas tengo ya! :)

A estas alturas ya sabréis que uno de los recursos muy utilizados para aprender inglés de forma lúdica es con las letras de las canciones. Aquí os dejo un karaoke de la canción muy conocida "The winner takes it all" de Abba. Lo ideal sería que imprimiéseis la letra y la tradujéseis. En un segundo paso deberíais poneros a ver este video y cantar con el karaoke. Cuántas más veces lo hagáis, antes lo memorizaréis. La meta tendría que ser que al final os pudiérais poner la canción en el mp3 o en la radio del coche y la pudiéseis cantar en inglés. Os ayudaría a vuestra pronunciación!



Os animo a que practiquéis el inglés con MÚSICA!!!!
