SESION 51: 10 de Junio de 2010

Have a great summer holidays!

VIDEO: "Do you speak English?"



SPEAKING: We practice asking and answering some questions using verb to be, to have got, can and de Present Simple and Present Continuous.

Hemos estado hablando sobre lo que deberíais hacer este verano para ir mejorando vuestro inglés y no olvidar lo que sabéis.

• Deberíais repasar todos los ejercicios que hemos hecho este curso, para recordar el vocabulario y la gramática. Podéis utilizar el libro y los discos y también los materiales colgados en este blog.
  
• También podéis seguir en orden las lecciones que aparecen en los cursos graduados de las páginas de La mansión del inglés , de Inglés Mundial y de Saber Inglés. Deberíais hacer todas las lecciones correspondientes al nivel uno, por orden.
  
• Igualmente podéis practicar los distintos aspectos de la lengua inglesa (gramática, vocabulario, escucha...) en esas páginas eligiendo la opción correspondiente en el menú de la izquierda o en esta página de Oxford University Press. Pinchad sobre el libro del nivel que queráis repasar y luego elegid el tipo de ejercicios. Podeis practicar el nivel Beginner.
  
• Pero lo más importante es que leáis y escuchéis textos en inglés. Os dejaré algunos enlaces para poder trabajar estos aspectos.
  

Breakingnewsenglish. Textos escritos , con audio incluido y con ejercicios para hacer después.
Real English: Vídeos con diálogos organizados por temas gramaticales y tiempos verbales y con ejercicios para practicar.
Mr. Duncan. Vídeos con explicaciones en inglés sobre el uso de ciertas palabras y sinónimos y antónimos de las mismas.
Periódicos ingleses o de EEUU
Emisoras de radio
Programas de TV

• En cuanto a SPEAKING, en cuanto tengáis ocasión de hablar con alguien en inglés hacedlo y si no la tenéis, ya sabeis, hablad con vosotros mismos o con vuestro amigo imaginario. Eso también sirva para ir practicando.
• Podéis usar un diccionario on line, como Wordreference, que es muy completo.
  

Have a good summer and practice your English!
