Hi!

This week we practiced - among other things - giving directions to get somewhere.

A question you may ask when you are in a new place and you need to get somewhere is:

How can I get to the _____(bus station)?

As you can see, the verb to use is get, do not forget.

Other questions you may ask are:

Is there a shopping center nearby?

Other important questions are:
Is it far? (A possible answer:It's only a few blocks from here, it's just a few minutes away)
Can I walk from here? 

Giving and following directions is not easy. It's easy to get mixed up. Some terms you need to know are:

Walk straight on, walk up the street, walk down X.
to the end
turn right, turn left on the (1st, 2nd, etc.) street.
go past (a church)
go over the bridge
it's on your right or left.

HOMEWORK

Just to let you know that the listenings have already been uploaded to the Aula Virtual, so you can do the exercises.
