Out of class # 5: Workbook









This book is personal , somehow . It is for individual work , so it depends on each of us if we move on it or not.  It is very similar to the Active Book, with the same exercises structure.


In class #8 : Active Book







Sometimes we work on active specifically in grammar book , which is complemented by each of the different projects , writtings and classes itself. This is necessary, it helps to structure this other things.


Out of the class #4 : Radio

In the car while I 'm driving , I can't go without music , therefore I always hear the radio and as you saw earlier entries I love the music sung in English . So even in the car I'm practicing.

Some of my favorite radio stations:

Best fm- 80's- 90's

95.9- alternative rock

104.7-alternative rock

In class # 7 : Spirogyra



For this time we went to Spirogyra Butterfly Garden.  This garden was made with the purpose to establish a garden-park where to breed and develop butterflies. We enjoy the short trip.


Out of class #3 : Movies

Like the music I love to see movies and Tv series; but, I like  to watch them in their original language, so, usually, I saw with subtitles. It is a very good way to learn vocabulary and at the same time listen to the pronunciation.

Some of my favorite movies are:

Climbing

This time I want to talk about something that a like a lot, Climbing.



Rock climbing or climbing can be one of the most representative forms of sport climbing. Rope, harness, chalk bag and a huge rock wall, are some of the things we first come to mind, this will have some images taken from some exaggerated movies. Sport climbing is climbing up a route in the rock. These routes are predetermined and equipped with a series of screws and "plates" which are attached to the rock, are those where the tapes were placed ready at the same time serve to pass the rope. The amount of equipment needed for this type of climbing is far less than that required for other modes such as traditional climbing.
 Sport climbing is held outdoors, usually in isolated areas of civilization, so it is important to be prepared and well aware of what is being done to prevent a disaster. Nature is also where we enjoyed our sport and it is important not affect the extent possible; no littering in particular.

In Costa Rica there are several areas where you can practice the sport:

Climbing Cachí- Forum or Uruca river canyon behind buildings Forum 1 - Aserrí - Atenas - Pico Blanco en Escazú



These are just some of the sectors where you can find routes for rock climbing; If you are new and want to venture it is advisable to make contact with the sport safely and starting with the basics. We have climbing gyms where you can learn the basics and learn before venturing to the rock.
