DEAR STUDENTS:
I HOPED TO FIND YOUR VIEWS ON OUR LAST CLASS. I FEEL A BIT DISAPPOINTED SINCE I SEE  NO COMMENTS ON YOUR PART AS WE HAD AGREED.

THIS WEEK WE REINFORCED THE IDEA OF  USED TO: YOU TALKED ABOUT THE THINGS YOU USED TO DO WHEN YOU WERE TEN: YOU USED TO STUDY A LOT, PLAY VIDEO GAMES, VISIT YOUR  GRANDPARENTS, ETC. WE DID TWO LISTENINGS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT SOME PEOPLE USED TO DO IN THE PAST.
WE  ALSO TALKED ABOUT THE ROLE OF MEN IN THE PAST AND NOW.
WE STARTED TALKING ABOUT ADVENTURERS, YOU GAVE YOUR EXAMPLES AND THE REASON WHY YOU CONSIDERED THEM ADVENTURERS. WE HAVE JUST INTRODUCED PAST PERFECT.

FOR HOMEWORK VICTOR WAS ASIGNED TO WRITE ABOUT THE CLASS ON THE BLOG AND THE REST OF THE GROUP SHOULD LEAVE A COMMENT.

I AM STILL WAITING..........
