Homework intermedio 1, 13th January

Finish the vocabulary and pronunciation revision at the end of unit 2. Do the reading too.
On Thursday next week there'll be a writing activity and a reading that I'll pick up and take home to mark. (Recogeré una composición  y reading para nota)
Instead of doing unit 3 next, we'll do unit 6. We started it and did the reading activity, but I didn't have time to explain the grammar, so don't do the fotocopies I gave you.
We listened to the song "I kissed a girl". You can download the activity and the answer by clicking here. I hope you like it.

Homework Básico 1, 13th January

You can read the grammar rules for adverbs of frequency in "Essential Grammar in Use". It's unit 95. (leed la gramática)
Do exercise 1, exercise 2, except sentences 4, 8, 9, 15. Don't do the exercise with the words "both, all" (I think it is exercise 4). (No hagáis el ejercicio con las palabras "both, all...")
When you do the last exercise, in sentence number 2, the expression "alguna vez", in questions is "ever". (En las frases de traducción, en preguntas "alguna vez" se traduce como "ever")
Be careful with word order in sentence 4. (Cuidado con el orden en la frase 4).
Don't do sentences 5, 6, 7, 8.
