Hello Everyone, During this difficult time, I wanted to give you some resources to help you continue learning. Here is a list of things that you can do at anytime, and it is a good place to start. ·           Organise your vocabulary books – revise, test yourself, add new words ·           Try to read an article in English.  A good free online newspaper is The Guardian  https://www.theguardian.com/uk      (but don’t read the articles on COVID-19 ;D!) ·           Watch a documentary, series or film in VO (subtitled, of course!) ·           Write a journal in English – everyday write a sentence or paragraph, use a new word or a new tense ·           Email, text or Whatsapp other classmates, to keep up-to-date ·           Do some online grammar exercises.  This a good website  Learning English - Exercises, Grammar, Vocabulary, Tests, Games I will continue to put resources up on this blog for you, as often as I can.  Take care and keep safe, Jonquil
