Price has gone down to 312 euros off taxes. 5 people got their tickets already!!!

CARPE DIEM!!!
Trip to the UK. These are the latest news. MANCHESTER, from the 1st to the 4th of May. It all adds up to 330 euros off taxes (half board - that means room and breakfast included). We'll depart from Málaga, but you'll have to get there by yourselves. And I remind you that those of you who are under 18 must travel accompanied by a senior. If you are interested, or you've grown interested just now, remember that tickets are now available at Viajes Sacromonte (pasaje de la avenida de la estacion).

As early as tomorrow morning tickets will be sold at the above mentioned agency. It is first come first served so make sure you're early birds.

Amazingly complete webpage. Suitalble for A1, A2, B1 and B2


4th year students. Those of you who contracted the spring syndrome and did not show up on Wednesday or Thursday need to know that you should deal with topic 5 during the Easter break. I have suggested in class that a good old spidergram (or any other association technique) could help you in acquiring the vocab, linguistic funtions and grammar in the chapter.


Ask yourselves questions such as these ones: Why is the topic called rituals? What characterises ritualistic behavior? What kind of rituals are covered in the topic? Do you know any other kinds of rituals? How many words about football do you know? How sophisticated is your vocabulary when it comes to talking about religions? Do you know how to show that you are angy at someone's annoying habits?

Do not forget to do some verb string exercises ( verb+ ing or verb + to infinitive) online.
