FINAL SELF-ASSESMENT

This will probably be the last post in my blog. . I can't believe 4th grade has already gone so fast! This year I have learnt a lot of new things. I think that I have improve all my skills a little, especially in grammar. The project that we did is amazing, I remember lot of memories doing it. In ITC we did a project about portraits and I had a lot of fun doing it, also I think it was so original and in P.E. we did our last project that was doing a P.E. lesson for our classmates and it was very interesting.

Thank everybody for this year and for helping me improve my English.

I leave here this song that represents a bit the last day 

 Enjoy the summer holidays bretonians!!!

SELF-ASSEMSENT - SECOND TERM

This term I've improved grammar the most. We have learned how to do the passive voice and the conditionals. I also learnt some phrasal verbs and vocabulary about technology.

My weakness is still speaking, however, listening is easy to me because I usually understand English because I change my “chip” into English and I don’t need to translate nothing to Spanish because I think in English. I also listen to music and watch some videos in YouTube or some series.

In ITC we learnt how to do a data base with Access and how to create our own logo with Inkscape.

And in P.E. we learnt vocabulary and how to play American football and baseball. And we are going to do a flash mob dancing in Valencia and I’m so excited!!

See you the next term!
