YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT


Hello everybody, do you remeber last class? I´m sure you do.

There´s a book called " you are what you eat" and the writer is a nutritionist. Her name is Gillian McKeith. She also has a program in on chanel 4 in England and a web page:

Basically she belive that it´s very important the way we mix different types of food, proteins, vegetables, fruits, fats and carbohydrats. Also how we cook and eat them.

In my opinion she gives practical advices(uncountable so no s) how to change habits to get (better health) healthier.

Have a nice day and try to avoid junk food as much as you can.

Learning english is fun!

Hi everybody!!
I'm very excited to speak with all of you by blog. I think it's a good idea to learn english, furthermore, we can share our fellings, thoughts and ideas and compare with each other. What can we speak about? Whatever!
So, i'll write about my favourite book, called "The perfume" by Patrick Süskind. The story is set in the XIX century in France. The protagonist has a wonderfull nose to smell (all things) everything and people but he hasn't got smell in his body... this is the reason that he wants to get the perfect perfume for himself... but the way to get it is cruel...
Has anybody read that book? What do you think about it?

Feedback

Hi everyone!

Well done today! I think some of you thought the reading and writing tasks were difficult and you did really well. Hopefully this blog will help you communicate with each other better in English outside of the classroom.

Please have a look at my other groups blogs and post comments on what they have said. If you have any problems signing in let me know, or leave a message at OH and i´ll try and help you.

Good luck and happy blogging!!

p.s try and post what we did in the class today and i´ll correct it in red!

First Blog

The intermediate level in Oxford House.
The people who are learning english in the intermediate level in Oxford House do a lot of things, for instants, we have maybe four teachers from differents places (for example, United States, London...) and this can help you to understand the different english accents, I think that these classes are good to learn english becouse we speak a lot in the class and this can help you to speak everyday better(better everyday - word order).

First Post - What to blog?

In today´s class we have discussed what and why to blog. Now it's your turn. Think about what you want to include on this blog, and get writing!
