From this link you can download the handout with your homework for this week.
We'll correct the grammar about quantifiers on Thursday (page 2) and the reading activity on Friday (page 1)
There is further practice on quantifiers on this powerpoint presentation. We did the las slide in class, but not the others.

Intermedio 1-Homework for next week

Too much information about quantifiers this morning? Sorry.
You can download the presentation. You can also do unit 30 in your grammar book although it has more to do with countable and uncountable nouns than with quantifiers.
And you can improve your pronunciation thanks to the BBC. On this worksheet you have a link to the BBC. Watch the videos and and answer the questions. The answers are at the bottom.
And if you want to listen and repeat the activities, you can download "Audacity" and record your performance.

UNIT 3 IS OVER!
Remember to bring your grammar book next week.
Acordaos de traer la gramática la próxima semana
You have to do the reading text at the end of the unit. You can also do unit 3 in your workbook.
Tenéis que hacer la lectura del final de la unidad. También tenéis el workbook. Id haciendo la unidad 3.
And for next week (or later) write a paragraph about your family, their names, age, nationality, their relation with you... It doesn't have to be very long. Remember you can email it to me or hand it in in class.
Y para la próxima semana (o más tarde) escribid un párrafo sobre vuestra familia, nombre, edad, nacionalidad, su relación con vosotros (por ejemplo "Pepe es el hermano de mi madre, está casado, es de Málaga y tiene 30 años. Su mujer galesa....). No tiene que ser muy larga. Recordad que podéis mandarme un correo o entregármela en clase.


Y esta es la canción que puse en clase. Espero que os guste.
And this is the song I played in class. I hope you like it.



Básico 1-3. Homework

Do these exercises for Wednesday:
Global Beginner, page 21, exercise 1 (hacer preguntas con las palabras que os dan) and exercise 3 (elegid la opción correcta en el texto).

Esta es la solución al ejercicio de transformación de frases con "am, is, are" en afirmativa, negativa e interrogativa.

This is the worksheet to practise the genitive. You can do it at home again and send me the answers if you want me to correct them.

Esta es la actividad para practicar el genitivo. Podéis hacerla en casa otra vez y enviarme las respuestas si queréis que os la corrija.


And this is to practise the family vocabulary with "The Simpsons". The key is on the second page. Their family tree is this.

Y con esto podéis practicar el vocabulario de la familia con los Simpson. Las soluciones están en la segunda página. Este es su árbol genealógico.

Intermedio 1- Homework for 17th November

Do you like writing? This time it's an informal e-mail, using the useful phrases that appear on this worksheet.
The reason for writing has to be related to food somehow: either you plan to have a celebration with friends, or you've enjoyed a meal with friends/family and tell the receiver of the email about it, or you've gone to a fantastic restaurant and want to recommend it...
Remember, the "excuse" is food/restaurants.
You can hand it in in class or send an email.
