This time you are going to have plenty of time to check the blog.

During our lessons last Monday and Wednesday we insisted on the use of 2 past tenses: the Simple Past and the Past Continuous.

Yesterday we had short conversations such as this one:


Where were you last Sunday Evening?

I was  in a cafe.

What were you doing?

I was having a cup of coffee and talking to my friends.


We looked at some photos - or pictures - and read about what was happening when the photographer took them.
We listened to a couple, who had been photographed many years before, talk about the moment when the photograph had been taken and what they remembered about it.

Students should remember the difference between book store and library. A person who works in a library is a librarian. 

Remember also the word near, it's a preposition and when is followed by another word, we mustn't use another preposition behind it. Many students say things such us near to or near of . You must get rid of that habit.

Next door: that's where our neighbors live.

We studied the prepositions at, in and on.
We use on before a day: On Monday, on Christmas Day, on May 10th.
We use in before a year or a month: We were in 1982. I was born in June.
We use at to talk about the time: I got up at 8:30

Students wrote about a holiday answering some questions such as: Where did you go? Who did you go with? Where did you stay? How did you book your holiday? What did you do? 

When the question word is the subject of the sentence, then we don't use an auxiliary.
Examples:

Who called you yesterday?
Which country has the best beaches?
What happened after I left?

In all those questions, the question word is the subject:who, which country, what.

For HOMEWORK students need to read a text and write 5 questions about it. Also, they must make a summary of it.
