Como ya os contamos en el post de la semana pasada tenemos el Christmas mode activado. Seguro que muchos de vosotros también estaréis inmersos en la vorágine de actividades que conllevan estas fechas tan señaladas, compra de regalos, decoración de la casa… pero sobre todo, preparados para pasar estos días rodeados de las personas más queridas.
Eso sí, sin olvidarnos de nuestro objetivo de preparar el examen Cambridge. La semana pasada pudisteis practicar Reading a través de una pequeña historia de Navidad, “On Santa´s Team”, por eso hemos pensado que sería también buena idea aprovechar las canciones típicas de Navidad para mejorar listening.
Hemos seleccionado tres canciones que son muy conocidas y que seguro que os van a gustar mucho. Os planteamos un ejercicio muy sencillo: se trata de que completéis los huecos que hemos dejado en el texto de cada una de ellas.
