This week, we revised how to form questions in English and started learning about the future (going to and present continuous) in section 3A in your books. On Wednesday, we did a listening comprehension exercise and a vocabulary test (students in 2ºB, I need to know your results!)

HOMEWORK, due to Monday 18th January.
Imagine an annoying friend wants to come to your house this weekend. You are really tired after Christmas holidays and he/she is the last person you feel like seeing. Write him/her a brief email telling you are very busy and the things you are going to do. Use your imagination!!
For example:

"I'm very sorry, but on Friday afternoon I'm going to a meeting with UE members to talk about environmental problems"
