BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

It is not the first time (QUARANTINE: DAY 18)

No, it is not the first time this has happened in history. Actually, it has happened many times if we take into account not only plagues or pandemics, but also wars. So it is a DÉJÀ VU (this is a French expression used in English to refer to something that has happened before).  

 

By the way, have you ever seen the film "Déjà vu"?

And this is also what happens in the next episode of LINGOHACK  >>>>

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE QUARANTINE


 Thursday, 2nd April



Tasks for today & Easter: 

 

  • Still revising GIVING DIRECTIONS. Watch these 2 other episodes from the NEW THAT'S ENGLISH     Unit 4A            Unit 4B        (MODULE 2)

  • Do exercises on pages 73-75 (Unit 6)

  • Study for the exam (first 5 units) that we will do after Easter. It will probably be on Tuesday and I will give you 2 hours to do it and send it to me. You will write the answers (handwriting) and send me photographs or scanned images of them. 

 

TIENEN QUE ESTUDIAR PARA EL EXAMEN DE LAS 5 PRIMERAS UNIDADES, QUE HAREMOS DESPUÉS DE SEMANA SANTA. SERÁ PROBABLEMENTE EL MARTES A UNA DETERMINADA HORA Y LES DARÉ 2 HORAS PARA HACERLO (A MANO) Y MANDÁRMELO O EN FOTO O ESCANEADO. TAMBIÉN LO PUEDEN IMPRIMIR Y HACERLO EN EL MISMO EXAMEN. 

 

INTENTEN SER HONESTOS PORQUE YO SÉ LA NOTA QUE SUELEN SACAR Y LA QUE SACARÁN DESPUÉS CUANDO HAGAMOS UN EXAMEN NORMAL. ESTABLECERÉ DISTINTOS NIVELES Y LES DIRÉ EXACTAMENTE QUÉ NIVEL TIENE QUE HACER CADA UNO.

 

¡FELICES VACACIONES, AUNQUE SEA EN CASITA!
