Keeping up with the news

As learners of the English language, we tend to have a look at foreign newspapers to keep up with the news and improve the language at the same time. However, here's something different. Why don't we read about ourselves in English? In Malaga there's a weekly paper for you read from the South of Spain. 

Sample:Sur in English

Easter traditions around the World

Easter is a very important Christian festivity. People celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ on the third day after his death. 





Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after the full moon in March. This is between 22 March and 25 April.



The origin of the English word Easter is uncertain. It probably comes from the pagan goddess of spring, Eostre. The pagans celebrated the arrival of spring with special festivals.

Daily Routines and actions





Would you be able to describe your whole day from waking up to going to bed?


If so, why don't you leave a message telling us about you and you'll practise Daily routines and actions that way.


However, writing about our daily routine can be very dull and boring.



So, we could think about other ways of expressing everyday actions. How about telling a day from a cat's eyes? or the daily routine of a little baby or even a common day of a bird...


                                                                                                         

Well, it's just a question of using your imagination, don't you think? Let's be creative all day long!

What are humans like?

After getting to know each other, it's time for us to describe ourselves, don't you think?



Well, first of all we need some adjectives for describing people. 



Human beings are different and that's what makes us so interesting and appealing to talk about. Every single country and culture with its own features and qualities. 



Let's point out our best strengths as individuals living in the same world!



Any ideas to start with?

Better late than never

At last I could find the time to scan the solutions for the Reading and grammar textbook exercises. Sorry for the delay. I’m a very busy teacher. However, here are the solutions for you check up your notebooks. I hope you can find some time to correct your answers, so that you can keep your English up. Well, I reckon that sometimes it’s a bit like the English saying: “Better late than never”, isn’t it?
