Welcome to KET 2012-2013!




October is round the corner and your KET lessons are about to start. Congratulations! Remember this year is YOUR YEAR, that is, this year you will be ready to sit for the official KET exam if you do all the things we will invite you to do both inside and outside your English classroom.

Take some time to have a look at this blog and don't forget to try the different links you will find in some of its entries. I am sure they all will be really useful for you.

But before we really start our year together, I would like to know something about you. So why don't you introduce yourself? You can find some information about me by clicking on my profile, too. Let the other people know who you are and what you like or hate, for example.

Use the questions below to write a short introductory paragraph and, when you are ready, publish it so that everybody in class can read it.

  1. Tell us your name (only your name, no surname, ok?).
  2. How old are you?
  3. Tell us something about your family: do you have any brothers or sisters? Do you get on well with them? Why or why not?
  4. Do you have any hobbies? If so, tell us a bit about them.
  5. Tell us something about your likes and dislikes. For example: I like pop and rock music a lot but I don't like rap much. Sorry, perhaps those who like rap could recommend some really good rap songs to encourage me to listen.
  6. Do you have any pets?
  7. Is this your first, second or third year preparing for the KET official exam?
  8. What do you expect from this school year?
  9. Enumerate three things you would like to do in class. E.g. listening to songs...

You have one week to write your paragraph. To do so, simply click on "comentarios" and write your paragraph. Remember to select the gmail option before publishing, ok?

Once everybody has written his or her paragraph, we will play a game in class. It is important that you read the paragraphs of your partners to do well in the game, ok?

Well, and that's all so far. Once again, welcome back to school! I am really looking forward to meeting you in person so that we can get to know each other.

Best of lucks with your KET class.

Your English teacher.
