Activity 2 - Intermediate 3 (I03) 6:45 pm class: Do you work out?

Sports sports everywhere....

I don't like to practice sports that much, as you know I don't fancy them at all. I like to go swimming though and I enjoy going to the beach or to a nice swimming pool. I also like to practice volleyball and basketball when I have some spare time.

Watch the following clip and post about your favorite moments of the video, also include your thoughts about sports. Do you like to practice sports? What do you practice? Tell me about your experiences.

Activity 2 - Intermediate 6 (I06) 3:15 pm class: Ghosts...are they real?

Do you believe in ghosts or spirits?

People are always telling us about different stories that involve ghosts or spirits, we even have videos that show ghosts sightings but are they real? We don't know about that. I don't really believe in ghosts but I do believe that our spirits have an after life.

Check this video and post your opinion about this topic. Have you ever experienced something paranormal?

Activity 2 - Intermediate 6 (I06) 8:45 am class: UFOs...

Do they really exist?...

A lot people say they have seen these mysterious unknown flying objects but are they real?
Do we really have enough evidence to prove they really do exist.

Watch this short clip about some UFOs sightings and post your opinion about it. Do you believe there is life in other planets? Do you believe in UFOs? Have you ever experienced something paranormal like this?

Being sick :(

It happens to all of us, it's something we can not avoid. Feeling sick is just part of our nature, sometimes it's something mild but sometimes it's severe. We all have to be careful and take care of ourselves.

Try not to drink to many cold drinks in the summer and try not to wear summer clothing in the winter, these are just two of the many advice we usually receive to avoid getting sick.

Activity:

Go to the following webpage and read the article about being sick, complete the activities and post here your thoughts about the article, did you like it?. Also write 3 sentences with the new vocabulary learnt and finally write about one of your own experiences about being sick.

Activity 1 - Intermediate 6 (I06) 3:15 pm class: Ads, Ads, Ads everywhere...

Ads and more ads...

It's amazing the power of the ads on the streets, it seems that wherever you go, you find different kind of ads.

They are out there for many reasons and the media has developed an interesting way of showing them everywhere we go. They are meant for selling, promoting, advertising, and more.

I remember the time I went to the south beaches and I just couldn't believe the number of ads on the road, they kept distracting all the people who were in the car, it was even dangerous.

Go to the following page, read and check all the ads thar are shown there.
