Practice your writing skills.

The only way to improve your writing skills is with practice. Write each day a short text about the topics of each of the units seen in class, about your favourite things, about your experieces, dreams, wishes or routines, etc. You can write a Summer Diary with all the things that you do this summer, or emails to a friend (real or imaginary)... The excuse is the least of your worries, the important thing is practice!

Here you'll find some webs where you can fin exercises and tips to improve your writing production:

The Rules Rap

We have discussed about the need of having the classroom rules
clear from the beginning. We made a debate and we reached
an agreement: our classroom contract. Great!

A good way to remember something is to associate it with
images or music.

Do you like music? What kind of music do you like?
Do you play any instrument? Do you like rap music?
Would you like to write a rap song?

Download this worksheet and go through the steps to write
our rules rap!
