MY ARTDOSSIER

This week I started doing grammar exercises from a book that I picked up at the library. In this book there are different theory and practical exercises for each section. Learning grammar is very good to have a theoretical base about English, to know how to make sentences with their verb tenses and use expressions that can be useful to communicate. A CD-ROM is included in this book so that you can also practice listening comprehension in English. The truth is that it is a very complete book that is helping me to learn more in English and put the knowledge into practice. I recommend that you take books in the library to practice grammar and improve the language!

Today I went to the library and I have taken different Speak Up magazines to read at home. In each of them there are different interesting topics, there is a CD to listen to the pronunciation of the words and also a reading book usually comes but I have not taken it because I already have the reading book to read this month. It is a magazine to learn English in a more entertaining way, where there are simple and short texts. Even so, you can learn a lot of new vocabulary and phrases that can be useful to you. Usually the magazine deals with current affairs or recent events. It also has a small notebook inside with exercises to practice the language. The truth is that the content is very interesting and at the same time you learn a language. I encourage you to read magazines in English, it is an entertaining and simple way to learn English.

This week in class we have done the prefixes of the adjectives that have a negative meaning. I was curious to know more about this and I have searched for information and I have found more adjectives with these prefixes to be able to know how they are classified. I have made a list of all of them in the notebook so I can have more resources to consult in my notes in case I need it. I have also found exercises online to better work these adjectives. I have even seen that there are nouns and verbs that have these prefixes "un-", "im-", "il-", "ir", "dis-" and "in-" and then I have also written them down in the notebook to remember me better. We have also given the third conditional and to better understand the difference between all the conditionals I have been watching a YouTube video where a girl explained everything very well and I have understood it better. I have also done exercises with the conditionals to practice more. I...

Today I went to look for the reading book that we have to read this month in the reading corner of the municipal library of my town. The book is called "Beloved" and its author is Toni Morrison. This book contains 275 pages and for me it is a great challenge to read it. Once we finish reading the book, at the end of the month we will make a video call to comment on aspects of the book such as what it consists of, what characters there are and what happens throughout the story and explain how it ends. We can also share things that have caught our attention and that we want to explain to others. This reading corner is very good because in addition to practicing reading comprehension, we learn new vocabulary and when making the video call commenting on the book what we do is practice communication and listening comprehension. This afternoon I'm going to start reading the book and see what it's about. I hope to learn a lot about this. I encourage you that if your library ...
