23rd March

Today we've talked about health and illness.
We started the class marking some expressions according to whether they were good or bad for our health. Then we read four short texts about what some people did to keep healthy and expressed our opinions about them.
To continue with this topic, we did a health quiz and talked about what we usually do to treat some illness. Then, we listened and checked if we were right or not (t.10.1).
After that,we completed some expressions with verbs and adjectives/nouns combination.
Then, we read an extract from a website and listened to a patient calling to a helpline to ask for advice for his problem (t10.2).
To consolidate the new vocabulary and structures, we did a role-play in which the students acted as doctors and patients.
We finally listened to other two patients talking about their problems and completed a dialogue with the missing words (t6.4)
