ON THE SECOND PART, WE CONTINUED WATCHING THE FILM: "DRAGONFLY". WE REVISED THE STORY AND THE PREVIOUS VOCABULARY.

ON THE FIRST PART OF THE CLASS WE CHECKED SOME SENTENCES YOU HAD TO TURN INTO REPORTED SPEECH. YOU DID A GREAT JOB!
THEN WE INTRODUCED THE IDEA OF REPORTED SPEECH IN QUESTIONS. WE ANALIZED THE ORDER IN  INDIRECT QUESTIONS, WE REVISED THE USE OF INTRODUCTORY VERBS SUCH AS ASKED, WANTED TO KNOW, ENQUIRED, ETC
AS AN EXAMPLE  YOU TRANSFORMED SOME QUESTIONS IN CLASS. YOU EVEN GAVE YOUR OWN EXAMPLES.
FOR HOMEWOK YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO CONTINUE  REPORTING QUESTIONS FROM A COPY YOU WERE GIVEN.
WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT YOUR PLANS FOR THE FUTURE. IT WAS  A NICE TALK!!

On the first part of the class we introduced the idea of reported speech in sentences. You analyzed the tenses correspondence and gave your examples. You also revised the use of modals adverbs (might, may, could). You filled it in your first examples. Not a big deal! You are supposed to complete some other exercises before introducing R.S in questions.

On the second part, we continued with our project for DFC. You had to decide to work on the idea of asking the Town hall for more bicycles stands to park those vehicles. We were analyzing who you should write the letter to, how formal it should be, what it was that you were really asking for and where those parkings would really be necessary.

For homework, you are supposed to interview different people to get to know their opinions about this project. You should ask them their views, what they think is going to  benefit from the project. Next class you will report on that!

WE CHECKED AN EXERCISE YOU HAD FOR HOMEWORK TO USE THE THREE TYPES OF CONDITIONALS.

THEN, WE CONTINUED TALKING ABOUT AN ARTICLE  WE READ THE WEEK BEFORE. TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THAT ARTICLE, YOU EXPRESSED YOUR OWN “WISH LIST” RELATED TO SOME TOPICS SUCH AS FAMILY, FRIENDS, HOLIDAY, MONEY. YOU HAD TO TALK ABOUT PRESENT AND PAST SITUATIONS.

ON THE SECOND PART, WE CONTINUED WITH OUR DFC PROJECT. AFTER ADDING MORE IDEAS FOR THE PROJECT, WE VOTED THE BEST IDEA. AND THE WINNER WAS: SENDING A LETTER TO TOWN HALL ASKING FOR MORE BICYCLE STANDS. NOW, YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT THE REQUIREMENTS TO SEND A LETTER TO TOWN HALL. BESIDES, YOU HAVE TO THINK WHERE THOSE STANDS WILL BE NECESSARY. YOU HAVE TO COLLECT AS MUCH INFORMATION AS YOU CAN ABOUT THE THINGS WE ARE ASKING FOR THE  TOWN HALL AND PEOPLE’S OPINION.
