1B LISTENING AND INFORMAL VOCABULARY


Hello My dear 1B students!

I have prepared some listening and vocabulary for you today. You are going to learn 10 new adjectives. Watch the video, play it and pause it , as many times as you need. Copy the adjectives and the example sentences for every adjective on your notebook ( make a list of them, they will be included in a text next week). Note if they have a particular use, if they are rude, affectionate, if they have more than 1 meaning, for example, or of they are used in a particular context. You do not have to show it to me unless I ask you to by email. 
SAY ALL THE ADJECTIVES ALOUD AND PRACTICE YOUR PRONUNCIATION WHILE YOU WATCH THE VIDEO.



Once you got the 10 adjectives and the example sentences written , be ready to apply them in context. 

TODAY'S ASSIGNMENT:
CHOOSE 5 of them and write an example sentence for every one of them. Try to find an equivalent of the adjective  in Spanish , take the context where it is applied into account before choosing the Spanish translation. Write you five sentences in the comment section👇. Please, write your name.
EXTRA CREDIT:
Have you heard any of them before? Where did you hear them? Which one is your favourite?

I hope you learn a lot from today's exercise. Be ready for more grammar practice, next week!
