  1. Hi Mireia, you have surprised me because your blog is very professional. It is like an Oxford or Cambridge grammar book! Your task is very formal but it has been designed for young people. Most of us have used lots of colors when designing our blog and you show that it is not always necessary when teaching a child. Even the photo you have used here is the perfect one. Where did you find it?
    Congrats!

  2. Hello Esther! Thank you very much for your comment. As you say, I think that it is not necessary to use a lot of colours for presenting a good activity. I prefer leaving creativity to our students!
    I find this photo on google images, writing "teenager student".

    Thank you for your comment again!
