First of all I have to thank everybody who has either posted their composition up on the blog or given it to me on a sheet of paper. I hope you post them up once I return them marked.
We have started the lesson today having a look at adjectives with -ing and adjectives with -ed (boring - bored). Example: if the teacher is boring, the students get bored.
Then we had a look at the idiom of the day: Like a dog with two tails. Congratulations to Raquel and Pablo for guessing the meaning right. I'll write a post sometime tomorrow explaining the meaning.
After these warm-up activities we continued with a listening exercise followed by a grammar explanation of questions forms, subject and object, and questions ending with prepositions.
- Who came to the party yesterday?
- Who did you go to the party with?
Exercise number 6 is for homework.
Finally it was time for some speaking. First we had a look at different ways of expressing likes and dislikes: gets on my nerves, can't stand, drives me crazy, keen on, can't bear... With these expressions plus vocabulary from exercise 2 (waiting in queues, getting up early, cooking...) we had a speaking activity to talk about things we like and things we don't like. The purpose was to improve the fluency talking about our preferences using simple language but fluently.
Finally we had a look at pictures B, C and D from page 9 and exercise 4 was given for homework.
See you all on Wednesday.
