LET´S START OUR SECOND "DEPARTAMENTAL"

The first thing that you have to do this second part of the course, is the following:

1.- In US letter size sheet of paper, you have to design a very original and colorful family tree.
2.- You have to include grandparents, parents, aunts, cousins, nephews, half sisters, etc., not less than 10 relatives.
3.- You have to draw their faces, paste photographs or at least write their names on the family tree. Include  the relationship below the photograph, drawing or name.
4.- Write name, date and group at the top right corner of the cardboard.
5.- Neatness  is a must in this activity.

Having done this, you have to write some sentences referring to the family members you included in your family tree. You have to use the structures that you have already learnt have got, there is, there are, this, that, those, possessive adjectives, 's , verb to be, plurals.

Example:
