5º PRIMARIA. ABOUT THE NOVEL "STARMAN"

Hi, dear children in 5º.
From now on I will submit some podcasts I am recording about the novel "Starman".
I will read some pages, or provide you with some activities you can do at home to improve your listening in English.


Chicos y chicas de 5º, aqui podréis consultar algunos podcasts o archivos de audio que iré grabando para vosotros. Escuchadlos y enviadme por correo electrónico lo que os voy pidiendo en cada uno de ellos.


Serán tareas simples, puesto que no os veo este curso. El objetivo es que os resulte cada vez más sencillo escuchar y pronunciar en Inglés.


Publico el primer podcast en la derecha de la pantalla, en"LABELS". Buscad el "PODCAST 5º-1" dentro de todos los Podcasts.
Os doy hasta el 15 de octubre para que me escribáis el email con lo que os pido.
