Good morning everybody! Remember to keep this site open and minimized to optimize time.

I would like you to comment on the result of the different activities on my blog. Remember you can use a friend’s authorization to post on my blog, but remember to write YOUR name.


First of all, let’s practice some pronunciation:
You are going to hear the conversation and pause it after each exchange. Repeat. Try to imitate the pronunciation and intonation. Do not feel embarrassed. We are all here to learn!

Then go to:
http://www.oup.com/elt/global/products/headway/elementary/a_grammar/

Go to:
Unit 14. Grammar, Present perfect 1 & Present perfect 2. Then go back to unit 10 vocabulary (Town and country)
Go back to Unit 6 and select “What….like?” Do the activity. Remember to raise your hand if you have any questions.

Go to Unit 10 and select comparatives and superlatives. Then do the activities on superlatives.

Click on Headway pre -intermediate. Click on Grammar . Select Unit 6 and choose comparatives. Do the activity.

Go to unit 7 and do the activities on present perfect and for and Since.

Go to “Marble” (bolitas) game. This game is aimed at practicing collocations. Collocations are combination of words that occur with higher frequency. E.g. Keep a secret, tell a story.

The idea is to click on time, press phrases (above) and then memorize where each word is, so you can put each marble with the corresponding partner.

Click on Headway pre -intermediate. Click on Grammar . Select Unit 6 and choose comparatives. Do the activity.
GO BACK TO:

http://www.oup.com/elt/global/products/headway/elementary/ Click on Test builder on the right hand side. Choose a minimum of 4 sections (ideally from the topics and grammar seen so far this semester) Take the test. Register results to tell me the topic you chose and the results you got.

For those who have extra time, visit: www.guinnessworldrecord.com and find out about crazy stuff like:
The longest fingernails on the planet/The largest metal plate on a skull/Science and technology or anything you find interesting. Write about some amazing facts.

    With marble game I felt really stressed because I can´t rembember the correct order all of words.
    With final test I´m fell very happy for that because my record is 90 percent about the topic PAST SIMPLE/PRESENT PERFECT.
    Best regards!

  5. I think it was very usefull because this area is more difficult to learn. I was very good in Present Perfect and Past Simple (in the test, I got 90% and 100%). Then, I chose Superlatives and Comparatives and it was a little bit difficult, actually I thought that It was better but I only got 80%.

    I enjoyed the activity, and of course, I learned a lot.
    I hope you are well, see you later!

    ESTER !

    I loved the page that we saw. I think It was a very complete one. I liked that we could create our own test and do many kind of exercises (vocabulary, crosswords, conjugate verbs).

    I could work and improve a bit my vocabulary and learn a couple of new expressions (like: "finger cross for...")

    In the test that I created, My total score was 47 out of 50 (94%) and the topics that I chose were:

    Past Simple 1 (100%)
    Past Simple 2 (90%)
    Past Simple 3 (100%)
    Past Simple / Present Perfect 1 (80%)
    Past Simple / Present Perfect 2 (100%)

    Best regards

    PS: I deleted my other comment because i didn't write my name xD

  7. In general I did it pretty good (I mean in the test) but it was not what I was specting. I realised that my worst points were superlatives and I was better in present perfect and past simple. My worst average was 80% in superlatives, the other ones were 90%.

    Refering to the whole class, I think it was really usefull, at least for my. I did lots of progress and it also was fun.

  9. Hi Miss, I enjoyed with the crosswords and the "marble". I think the best parts in this activity were the first, listen and repeat to practice pronunciation because I think are one of my weakest points, and the test, to reinforce that we saw in class. My final porcent was 77% in the test. Regards Miss See you the next week. Bye Joaquín =)

  13. Hello Miss. Today I learn new vocabulary about “town and country”. I have any complications with the activity crossword against the time and I confused between comparative and superlative. I will reinforce my study with comparative and superlative. The activity to hear I found really fantastic because I can hear how people communicate between their. I need to be faster to realize all the activities. In the afternoon I will finish all the activities. Thank Miss for these activities. See you the next Tuesday. Bye. Yaela.
