DAY TO DAY WAYS TO PROTECT OUR ENVIRONMENT

SELF-ASSESSMENT- Second Term

This term I think that I improve in vocabulary about crimes and criminals and also my level of grammar but I have to improve my translation.

In Clarissa’s class I enjoyed a lot and also I learnt new things.

In geography I’ve learnt many types of government, the political system in Spain…that are topics that I like to treat. Now I know how to describe agricultural landscape and more vocabulary of economic sector. I learnt about Sri lanka in my project, for me It has been interesting but on the other hand it has been a bit long.

Outside the English class I heard songs, sometimes I watched films with subtitles

In physical education I have learnt some topics of how to do acrosport

In conclusion I’m happy with all the subjects
