Grammar

Well done, Javier, on all your hard work this term. You are always active in speaking activities, and this is great. I always enjoy reading your writing too; you have very good ideas. You can see from your marks that reading is not a problem for you.

Sometimes you still make small grammar mistakes, and I think you can improve your vocabulary. I recommend you review many of the language points we studied this term. There is extra language practice in your online workbook.

The area you need to work on the most is listening. I know this is difficult for you. I recommend more practice at home. Listen to English TV shows, podcasts and radio as much as possible. I can give you a list of things to listen to.

I’ve enjoyed working with you. Have a nice holiday, and good luck for next term!

AFTER SCHOOL

We have spoken about what pupils do at school, at lessons and during breaks. But boys and girls don’t spend the whole day at school. This talk will be about what they do when school is over and they are free. Not everybody goes home after the last lesson. Many boys and girls – the most active members of the class and school – stay at school for so me time for social activities. They organize parties, conferences, and games meetings. The school library is open at this time for pupils who come to choose a new book or read an interesting magazine. There are different after-school clubs at school; each member of an after-school club goes there to do something which interests him. Sports sections are also very popular. Their members play games and go in for gymnastics. You can see boys and girls from all classes either in the gymnasium or on the sport-ground. As you know, schoolchildren have to study after school, too. They have homework to do. When do you think it is better to begin doing homework? As doctors and teachers say, the best time is after dinner and an hour’s walk. If you have no rest, it’ll be difficult to prepare your lessons. Work about the house is a good rest from studying, too. The English people say, “A change of work is as good as a rest”. So it is useful to go to the shops and buy something. But if you meet a friend in the street, don’t talk too much because you’ll have too little time for your lessons.
