SELF-ASSESSMENT

1) Now that I've finished the term, I think that I know how to use the future tenses better than before, and I've improved in the listening part thanks to the song's activities that we've done in the seventh hour.

2) About the blog, I've enjoyed using it because in my opinion it is a good way of posting and learning and using technology at the same time. Also it is easier to post it and not to write it in papers because that's quite boring.

3) I really enjoyed this term and in general the course, because with Cristina the classes are funnier and she makes you participate, so I think that's important too if you want to pay attention and learn in a better way. I improve in writing because I practised during the terms with the different topics and also, as I said before, in listening. I liked a lot the projects that we've done, specially the one about witches, beause I think it was very interesting to learn about the culture in the past and the history during the centuries.

SELF ASSESSMENT

What  can I do that I couldn´t do before:

Now when I have a conversation I can talk better and use different vocabulary that I didn´t use before. Also, because of the book's project I can speak more about witches and its history.

What did I like the most:

The thing that I liked the most from this term were some activities that we did on Thursday and the project that my group and I did about the witch-hunt. It was very interesting, entertaining and a good way of learning about a topic.

What did I do well:

In this term I worked a lot and I studied grammar, vocabulary and translation so hard in order to get good marks in my exams, and I think I did it well. Also I did my homework in time.

What did I do in English outside the class:

Outside the class I listened to many songs in English (which I consider that are better than the Spanish ones) from a lot of different singers and as always I watched some series or TV programmes in its original version that is English.

What do I need to improve:

I think what I need to improve is to upload the blog more often and organise myself a little bit better when I have to study a lot of subjects. Also I can make an effort and study a little bit more the vocabulary part.

What did I learn about culture:

In this term I learned about witchcraft culture, which I found very interesting to search, and I made a project about it with some of my partners. Specifically, we did it about the witch hunt and it was a very interesting topic to know about and thanks to that now I know a little bit more about the past culture, its behaviours and its thoughts.

WITCHES PROJECT

One week ago some partners and I made a project about witch hunt in the 15th and 16th century. I found it very interesting so I decided to upload it. I hope you like it!

SELF- ASSESSMENT

1. WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW?

Now I can speak English better and I understand the listenings better too! I have also improved in doing writtings.

2. MY BLOG/PORTFOLIO

I think the blog is a little bit useless because it doesn´t help me to improve my English but it is enjoyable and in this way you can spend a good time while you are learning English.

3. MY SKILLS

This year I have improved in the writting and translation part, but in my opinion I think that I should study more the vocabulary because if I studied more I could get better marks in vocabulary. This year I have also improved in the listenings because now I can understand better English programmes or films and I enjoy watching them in other language.
In general, I think that maybe I could study more but I have done a goos school year!

PHRASAL VERBS

MUMS TELLS ME OFF ALL THE TIME!

I get on well with my parents most of the time and I think we have a good relationship. When I have a problem, they are the first people that I turn to for help. For example,if people at shool pick on me, they will always be very sensitive and helpful. My parents also put up with me when I'm moody or lazy. Luckily, we don't fall out very often, but when we do,we make up and forget about it quickly! I really look up to them and respect them, but there's one thing that really annoys me. My mum always tells me off when I do something wrong, even for small things like leaving my shoes in the wrong place. The worst thing is that she tells me off in front of my friends. It's so embarrassing. What should I do?
