Week 10th – 12th February

Hi, everybody! How are you?

Today is sunny and windy. It rained a lot last night but we have sunshine and, although it’s a little cold, the afternoon looks nice!

Last week we learnt a lot of vocabulary related to the weather. Remember:

We ask about the weather like this: ‘What’s the weather like?’ It’s …

We listened to the weather news about a hurricane in Miami.
Week 3rd - 5th February

This week we finished talking about work and jobs.
 Do you remember the vocabulary?

We also read the descriptions of some jobs:

Shop assistant: What do I do? In my job you have to get up early and serve customers. I have 40 or 50 regulars who always shop with me. My wife and I have to work as a team because the stall is too busy for one person.

Doctor: I have to work long hours. Sometimes I work for 36 hours without a break. I don’t have to give presentations but I have to meet patients. I usually see between 80 and 90 a day.
Sales Rep. (representative): He has to travel round the country. He has a car and does about 1,000 km a week. Does he have to use the phone? No, his assistant has to arrange meetings with companies.

And that was all. See you on Tuesday!
