2BAC Unit 6 and farewell

 Dear students,

This year we seem to have a shorter academic year, at least my personal feeling. I'm already missing you! I hope you work hard and get the brightest marks in your Ebau exams, get ready for our last test on unit 6 (remember content from all the course can also appear despite the focus would be on vocabulary and grammar of this last unit). And last but not least, here you have some extra material for you to revise before the exams. Feel free to keep in contact before and after the exams and ask me any doubt you might have. I hope you can make your dreams true and work to be your best version in the future. It's been a honor to be teaching you this year. 

All the best!

Humberto

REMINDER. PROJECT: TRAVEL PODCAST + BOOK Animal Farm

https://zoomenglish.blogspot.com/search?q=podcast

SPEAKING. Listen to a travel podcast of your choice. Then, prepare and record an audio giving tips to young people about a destination of your choice. As you will see, a podcast must include some music, it might include sound effects and it is important to modulate the rhythm, pauses, and intonation. I will attach 2 examples from last year students to have an idea: Selena's did it individually, Dani and Luis did in couple. Duration: from 1 to 5 minutes. You can work in pairs (virtually though!... given our current situation).
