Listening Practice and a Game

Some of you have been telling me how difficult you find to do the listening exercises. Well, here you have a web page where you can do very easy listening exercises searching by topic.
You can also browse the British Council Learn English website, with tons of exercises, links, games, videos and much more.
As my recommendations today, here you have quite an interesting video about something I'm sure you'll find interesting - the English language itself!

And also, if you have a couple of minutes to spare, try doing this wordshake game here and then tell me in class how many points you got! :-)

Films in English

The so-called Aula de Cine at the Facultad de Filosofía y Letras is currently offering a very interesting cinema programme. All movies are broadcasted in their original languages and many of them were shot in English, so it's a great opportunity for you to enjoy these all-time masterpieces:

All showings take place at the University Library (Salón de Actos, that's the building next to the Casa de las Lenguas) at 4 p.m. Here you can check the programme. 

I hope you enjoy the movies! :-)
