Let the Blogs Start!

Week 16^th – 18^th September, 2014

Hello everybody! This is the first blog in September.

Yes, we started on 2^nd but some of you were still on holiday. Lucky you!

On the other hand, on the first days the students who came to class were the ones who had taken holidays in July; that’s why we reviewed – or should I say ‘learn’? – comparative and superlative adjectives and reviewed the past simple.

FYI = For Your Information. And because this is our new blog, here you have the summary I posted previously.

Remember:

		ADJECTIVE	COMPARATIVE	SUPERLATIVE
1-Syllable		hot long	hotter longer	the hottest  the longest
2 -syllable ended in “y”		dirty	dirtier	the dirtiest
	REST OF ADJECTIVES
1-syllable not ended in “y”		violent	more violent	the most violent
More than  2- syllable adj.		expensive	more expensive	the most expensive
		IRREGULAR
		good	better	the best
		bad	worse	the worst

And the same rule applies to adverbs.

		ADVERB	COMPARATIVE	SUPERLATIVE
1-Syllable		fast near	faster nearer	the fastest  the nearest
	REST OF ADVERBS
More than  2- syllable		slowly	more slowly	the most slowly
		IRREGULAR
		much / many	more	the most
		little/few	less	the least
		far	further/farther	the furthest /the farthest

Adjectives of appearance and personality

We reviewed adjectives of appearance and personality and vocabulary about the house, because I want you to write an essay on one of these three topics: ‘A good friend’, ‘Your family’ or ‘Your flat / house’. Then you will talk about it in class.

And we finished the week listening to a song by Tina Turner, ‘The Best’.

Song: The Best

The Best, lyrics

In this way, we have restarted our blogs!

See you on Tuesday!
