Self-assement (Geography-English)

Hey Guys!!!

We're almost in the end of the second term, and as usually we've to do our self-assessment :

Questions:

• What can I do that I couldn't do before?
• What did I like most?
• What did I do well?
• What am I confused about?
• What did I do in English outside the class?
• What do I need to improve?
• What did I learn about culture?

What I can do now is.. eh well this is quite difficult but I'll say that thanks of English I'm less shy because now I can speak with more people from different nationalities and learnt about different countries!!!
What I like most is speaking and  all the new vocabulary I've learnt this term because a lot of words I didn't know how to say ,now I do easily.
I don't very sure about what I do well, it could be speaking? because although is embarrassing make a mistake in front of a native I love speaking with them and I don't think I'm shy in that way .
At the moment I'm not confused about any ting ( I think)
Basically I do the half of my life in English(okay no the half, but at least a quarter :)) I follow a lot of English people and watch English youtobers, English artist... every time I can I bought my favourites books in English or watch my favourite movies in English ( or series ) I also try to translate English song into Spanish but I'm not very good about it and I speak with my friends from UK and France.
I need to improve in everything: Grammar, vocabulary, listening... writing.. and phrasal verbs( OMG phrasal verbs are the most difficult thing in the world)
I've learnt a lot about culture the Maori, the food of Trinidad an Tobago , with Geography I 've learnt a lot about the world and how it's works and also I learnt very interesting information of the countries we made the project of!!!!!!




Leo and I wish you a happy study weekend!!!

GEOGRAPHY : PROJECT

Hi guys!! 

Right now in geography we are learning about the primary sector, one of my homeworks​ is choosing an image of a landscape. I chosed "Mar de plástico​" or plastic sea. These are a lot of greenhouses together in Almeria , Andalucia, Spain. its call like that due to the view from the air, all white, it really look like a sea. 


 So we can defined these plastic sea as: 
-Enclosed fields: that means that's a field separated each other(obviously) 
-Polyculture: the land is divided into small plots with variety of crops
-Irrigated farming : the water comes to the greenhouses by irrigation ditches. 
-Intensive agriculture: as an importants greenhouses they must use specials seeds and fertilisiers
                                                   

As a fan I recommend you to watch "Mar de plástico" an amazing serie set into this greenhouses with an addictive plot!!!! (SPAM, SPAM)

This chart shows a lot of examples of adjectives with -ing and -ed! i thinks that the meanings are very clear, anyway if you don't understand something asked me in the comments! 

misunderstanding : when you understand something wrong, far away the real meaning.

 be both...and : similar . ex:They  can be both amusing and annoying.

gesture: Move some parts of you body(hands mainly) while you speak

nod: Shake you head saying yes.

                  DANGER: If you are from Bulgaria or you feel confused after this explanation because in you country nod means" no"  and shake you head means "yes" this is a clear type of misunderstanding, so for most Europeans (and probably most of the world) NOD means YES and SHAKE YOUR HEAD means no ( Although this have not to worry you, in fact I find this amusing) 

Shake you head:Move your head saying no

burst out laughing: You can't stop laughing

pleased to meet you: very formal way to say "nice to meet you" 

go red: became red

encouraging: Positive!

Be in a hurry: You will be  REALLY LATE because this terrible traffic jam , so you are in a hurry!!!
