Hi! I’m from Santa Monica in California. I’m interested in music. I like rap and hip hop, and my favourite singers are 50 Cent and Eminem. My favourite TV programmes are Americal Idol and The Simpsons. They are excellent.
Hello! My name’s Becky, and Matt is my brother. We’re from London, and our favourite sports are football and athletics. I’m a Chelsea fan, but Matt prefers Arsenal.
His favourite player is José Antonio Reyes.
Hi!, my parents are from China, but we’re now in Sydney, Australia. Australia is interesting, especially the animals, but the food isn’t good. I prefer Chinese or Italian food. The beaches here are fantastic and surfing is very popular. I’m interested in surfing, but I’m not very good.

Dear students,
This term we are going to enjoy with an oral activity called “speaking bag”. Bring to class a special object for you, show it to your peers and tell us about it, what it means for you, what it reminds you of, why it is important for you.
We will bring the object inside a paper bag provided by the teacher and pass it to a partner once you have finished.
To avoid forgetting about your presentation, please, once you have done it in class, write a short summary on the blog.
Thanks to all of you again and keep talking!….. in English!
You’re doing a great job!
