Michelle's (EOI) Blog for Elementary (Básico 1) students

Welcome to our blog!

7. Your Questions

ABRIL 2012: Estoy de BAJA por enfermedad, y no me corresponde dar ninguna información sobre el curso o los exámenes. De cualquier manera, no doy la de exámenes nunca por Internet, más que en lo explicado en “Exams”, ¿vale? Preguntad a vuestro profesor, aquí no. Sí puedo contestar, claro, preguntas sobre el idioma inglés! :)

WARNING: Please, no questions about the School, exams or things the School Office (Secretaría) answers.

This space is for questions about the English language and its different cultures.

Come on, shoot!!!

    HI Michelle.
    I’m a student for basico 1 de M/J I was making my folder and I don’t know what pages from the book we have to include in the plastic for the chest.

    Thank you.

    Dear Vanessa,

    It’s the last two pages in every unit, from unit 1 to 8. They’re in a different color! Those pages are the unit test. So that’s what you need to copy, so that we can first do it in class, and then you can do it at home in your own textbook, if you want to consolidate!
    :)

    You’re welcome!

    See you around!

    Hello!
    I am here to ask my question now.

    How I can do the exercise 2 on page 6 if I don’t hear the dialogue before? or listen to the exercises 1.17 and 1.18 if my cd doesn’t have “the listening”???

    I’m a little lost and I’m worried because I do not know how to do and want to have my homework done for Wednesday.
    I need help please!!!

    Thanks,

    HI, Julia! Well, apparently Oxford hasn’t included in the Students’ Pack ANY!!! of the audios in the textbook. So my question is, How is that textbook going to help students learn to speak and understand? Students need to listen to English every day, not only in the classroom! That’s not enough! Use my podcast until we find some kind of answer to this problem!
    By the way, your English is very good for this level. Anyway, I hope you can enjoy our little lessons! :)
    See you then!

    Hello!
    Thanks Michelle for your comment, but I have much to learn English (and lose my shame jeje).

    On the other hand, only commenting that the links work (which are on the board of class), at least for now, and you can download “the audios”. Just that.

    See you in class!

  6. Hi!
    This is my question:
    What’s the meaning of “BYOB”?
    BYOB is a song‘s title and I don’t know what it means. On the Internet there are appears a lot of meanings of for this word. Do you know what is the real meaning?
    Thanks in advance.

    Awesome English for an Elementary student! Well done!

  7. michelle says:

    Hiya, Miguel!

    Well, that’s an acronym which stands for Bring Your Own Booze. Booze is alcohol! This means that people are telling people that if they want to drink alcohol, they need to bring their own, because there won’t be any! :)

    But what is the song about? If this is not useful, let me know. It is true that there are a lot of acronyms used like this one, and that some have different meanings!

    Great English, BTW! :P :D

    I’ll check your (few and minor) mistakes now!

    See you around!

  8. Thanks.
    Then the song doesn’t have meaning that I can understand!!!
    The song is by Systeme of a Down. It’s a metal group.
    This is the link from YouTube:

    It’s a little hard but the lyrics are good.
    See you!
