Future tenses


Hello, friends! We're going to start a new unit called "Our future". This unit is about your predictions about the future, such as jobs or plans to do for example in 5, 10 or 20 years.

We will focus on the predictions about the future. For making them, we will use different modal verbs (will, may, might, could) depending on the possibilities of these facts.

You can see this presentation about the future tenses ;)

Reported Speech


Hello, friends! We've just started a new unit called "Write it down!". This unit is about ways of writing, so it is important to know how to use different speeches, such as direct and reported.

We will focus on the Reported speech (Estilo indirecto). It is used to say what someone else said. It is very used in books and many other different texts.


An example of Direct and Reported speech is the following:

Direct. "I'm writing in the English blog" said the teacher. (Estilo directo).

Reported. The teacher said he was writing in the English blog. (Estilo indirecto).


As you can see, in this sentence we have changed the Present Continuous of the direct sentence into Past Continuous in the reported speech.

So, you have to remember doing this change when you're writing or speaking in a reported speech way.

Look at these pictures for knowing the correct changes that you have to do. You can copy one of them in your notebooks.



These videos are really useful for understanding what we've explained. Watch them!






Finally, you can see some activities for practising this grammar content. Let's do them!

Your mission is to create 2 cards with two important inventions or creations in human being history. So, first, you have to investigate and decide which two of them you are going to design.

For creating the cards, we are going to use the website http://www.hearthcards.net/, based on the virtual card game "Hearthstone" for smartphones, tablets and computers.

Here you have a link with a Presentation in which you will know how to create the pictures.

Please, follow the instructions. Remember: it is an english activity, so you must complete the information using English and using the Past Passive.

This activity will be evaluated for English and Digital Culture subjects.
