THE MARVELOUS UK
Hello you guys!
I think if you have or if you've ever had a cat you'll see how accurate this cartoon is. It's amazing how we have the feeling we are watching a real cat doing everything this cat does.
It's interesting to see how simple things can puzzle and entertain a cat for some time, and it's what's happening now: Simon's cat is investigating a box.
Do you think you can describe everything the cat is doing?
here you have a picture to help you out with the prepositions:

AT A MUSEUM
How do you like going to museum? have you ever been to the museums we have here in SP? By doing this exercise you'll have the chance to feel as if you were in a museum abroad.
The second exercise is a listening one, but it's kind of simple to just do what the exercise asks you to do. Besides telling me where the people are, try telling me more details about their conversations; do your best to show me somehow you understood the details, no only where they are.

AT A FAST FOOD PLACE
SHOPPING FOR CLOTHES
Hello!
Neste exercício vocês terão a chance de ouvir dois irmãos conversando em uma loja de roupas. Eles trocam idéias para decidir o que comprar. Ouçam os diálogos e escolham o que eles irão comprar. Não esqueçam de imprimir a folha de exercícios antes de tudo, OK?
Além das respostas corretas, não esqueça de fazer suas anotações! Há muito vocabulário novo que os ajudará a descrever roupas e sapatos quando for a vez de vocês fazem comprar no exterior. Que palavras você anotou?
Será que você consegue usar esta vocabulário com segurança ou, por hora, só conseguirá entender estas palavras se alguém as usar? Pense nisso. Lembre-se que fazer anotações e nunca voltar a elas não cumpre seu propósito inicial.

Anote, busque figuras, tente descrever o que as pessoas estão vestindo, tente me escrever a sua opinião sobre os items que eles escolheram levar... Quanto mais você se forçar a usar as palavras novas que lhe aparecem, maiores são as suas chances de lembrá-las quando você precisar.

AT THE SUPERMARKET
Hello guys! This is aa listening exercise for you who wants some more practice on food-related vocabulary. To make things easier for you, print the exercise before playing the recording here.
PREDICTING THE FUTURE
Hey you guys!
Let's review some things we saw in class so you won't have any questions about the topic.
I'm pretty sure most of you would like to know what the future holds for you, but would you see a fortune teller? Would you belive anything she said? Would she be more likely to say something like "You will win a million dollars." or "You are going to win a million dollars."?
Before you answer, remember:
We often use GOING TO to make a prediction about the future, but when our prediction is based on evidence. We are saying what seems sure to happen.
We use WILL to express a subjective prediction, which is a hypothesis based on our opinion. Whether or not the event will happen is not certain. Very often this kind of prediction is introduced by I think/I don't think.
Are you ready to give you your answer?
If you think "You will win a million dollars." is right, you got it! The fortune teller has no evidence of what she's saying.
Here you see a girl who is very curious about her future; she couldn't help herself and is now counting on a fortune teller's help so she can find out what's next. Take a look at the key words and write the girl's questions. Also, write the fortune teller's answers, always giving the girl a reason, an explanation... Or telling her how to get what she wants.
He was also very curious to know more about the predictions for her star sign - as well as her boyfriend's, and the fortune teller was happy to help her with that too. Oh, she is a Cancer.
What did the fortune teller tell the girl?
Did the girl get happy? Why (not)?

GOING ABROAD
Hello you guys!
Here you can see lots of things we need to take when we travel. Can you name them all? Try doing the exercise and check it out!
Then, try naming the other items and also check if you remember the place prepositions and how to use "there be" to describe all of this mess.

WHAT'S IN YOUR REFRIGERATOR?
Hey guys!
Today is the day when I've got to drop by the supermarket, no matter what happens! My refrigerator looks nothing like the one you see below. The bad aspect of being responsible for buying the grocery is running the risk of having to deal with a barely empty fridge - which is the case now; well, there is the silvrlining too: I get to buy and eat whatever I feel like!
Does your fridge look like the one you see here? How would you describe your fridge and this one?
Take the chance to evaluate yourself: do you have enough vocabulary to describe these products? Do you remember the prepositions of place? Can you use "There Be" properly?
Think about it!
