2º AMPLIACIÓN UNIT 6 VIDEO WATCHING FROM THIS BLOG "TIPS FOR A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE" (We have played twice.) WHAT´S UP HEALTH PROBLEMS: VOCABULARY SB, page 34 1º BACHILLERATO 3/4 After yesterday´s explanation we have done some classwork,  WB, pages 30-31, exercises 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 ( the last ones were done but not corrected, though I am considering to have an exercise similar in the next text) It is a very talkative large class, with them I go very slowly. The lessons are painfully slow because of the constant interruptions and the noise of their chatter and they usually have very little interest  or attention during the explanations and corrections. Bad attitude (like trolls) today as every Friday. Planning of the following week 13th January: Homework, WB: unit 3, pages 20 to 23 ( both included) we are having the exercises  corrected. 15th January  Reader´s test 16th January Listening activities from SB & WB or simila
