First task!

As you know, in Unit 1 of your student's book, you have read some information about British customs and conventions. Now I'd like you to watch videos about some of the British customs you read about in your textbook.

Is there any similar celebration in Spain? Post your comments about this on the blog.

Now, it's time to investigate and read more about this topic. Follow these steps to complete the final task:

1. Visit the following site about British culture http://projectbritain.com/ and have a look at the headings on the right.
2. Clic on "etiquette" and carefully read the information it gives about social norms in Britain. Note down the things which are similar or different to Spanish social customs and tell us about some of them
3. Finally, in pairs make a similar list for visitors to your country and hand it to me before Octuber 14.

Post your comments on the blog, and don't forget to include your name in the entry, otherwise, it will be anonymous, and therefore, not evaluated.

Be careful with spelling, vocabulary, grammar, etc.

Welcome to this English blog!

Hello class!
I've always wanted to have a space on the web so that you can do online activites and post your comments on different subjects and that's the reason why I've decided to design this blog.
And because this is my and your blog, you can give suggestions, providing songs, videos or any idea you have and you would like to share with your classmates.
Of course, this is part of the subject, and your comments will be given the importance of class work and compositions, so follow the rules (pay attention to spelling, vocabulary, etc) and always USE ENGLISH.
I hope you enjoy the experience of having an English blog.
