Traducción de las actividades:

¡Buen lunes, familias de 4to!

Esperamos que se encuentren muy bien y hayan pasado un hermoso fin de semana.

En el día de hoy seguiremos practicando el uso de adjetivos superlativos y realizaremos una actividad de escritura.

ACTIVIDAD 1: Los chicos y las chicas deben escuchar el audio y marcar las oraciones dadas como verdaderas (true) o falsas (false). La primera ya está hecha, a modo de ejemplo.

ACTIVIDAD 2: Aquí deben leer las oraciones sobre la escritora J.K Rowling y completarlas utilizando los adjetivos de la caja en su forma superlativa. Hay un ejemplo.

ACTIVIDAD 3: En esta última actividad, deben pensar en su famoso/a favorito/a y escribir un texto sobre esta persona. Para eso deben completar el cuadro que les dejamos con información sobre esta persona basándose en las preguntas/ consignas de la primera columna ("QUESTIONS"). Una vez que el cuadro esté completo, podrán utilizar toda la información que tienen para escribir su texto. 

En la segunda columna del cuadro podrán ver cómo serían las respuestas según el ejemplo que se encuentra en el libro. Pueden utilizar estas respuestas como una guía para realizar las propias.

Esto es todo por hoy.

¡Cariños!
