Important Recommendation:
Technology of the obvious:
It is easy to read and listen. Your challenge is use what you read and heard quick and right when SPEAKING and WRITING.
To make complete sentences is PRIME.
- I feel sick.
- I am doing ok.
- Someone broke it.
What question can I ask to respond with this sentence?
Recommendations for the Future
- Watch situational comedies
- 1st time with language in English and subtitles in Spanish.
- 2nd time with language in English and subtitles in English.
- 3rd time, if you do not get bored, language in English and no subtitles
- At the end of each unit:
- Check the language summaries with your oxford learner's online. If you cannot make a sentence with the word, you haven’t learned enough.
- Check the grammar Notes
- Practice by writing for a writing exam!!! Practice by speaking for an oral exam!!! Obvious!!!

cinderella, her prince, the prince’s father, cinderella’s stepmother and stepsisters, fairy
Last night , I went to a ball dance with my sister and my mom. It was disgusting because the prince never danced with me. He was dancing very intently with a strange ugly girl. She had a ridiculous dress with crystal shoes. Crystal!! Fortunately, it turned midnight and she ran away and lost her crystal shoe. Great!!
….
Last night, I was flying around the farm, and I heard a girl crying loudly. I was shocked, so I offered my help. At the beginning, she got scared. She thought I was not real. Her name is Cindy. She told me her story. I cried quietly. I transformed the pumpkin nearby into a carriage with 2 mice (=pl of mouse), oops sorry, 2 horses. (I transformed the mice into horses , too). Last , I gave cinderella a beautiful astonishing dress……… I told her to return at midnight.
I do not know what happened in the end because I also went to the ball dance and stayed at the party until the next day.
….
They are in the palace in a ball (=a formal dance).
The prince is dancing slowly with cinderella. Cinderella is smiling nervously. Her stepsisters are looking at her angrily.

It’s a story about a tortoise and a hare.
One day, the tortoise challenged the hare for a race. The hare laughed at the tortoise because he was arrogant. He thought that there was no way a tortoise could defeat a hare because a tortoise is very slow, so he accepted.
So then the race started, and the hare felt so confident that he took a nap (a sleep for a moment). The tortoise advanced little by little and got close to the finish line.
It turns out that the hare woke up very late when the tortoise was too close to win.
In the end, the hare couldn’t get to the end on time and lost the race.
