My last summer vacations

Observations:

The vocabulary was good but my powerpoint didn't work and that totally ruined my oral presentation. I used discourse markers like after, I also and then. At least I organized my ideas and I didn't read from my notes (because I didn't have any). But I spoke really quiet and it was really hard to hear me. And that is the reason why my mark should be an 8.

Writing:

Hello my name is Enric and I'm going to talk to you about my Summer holidays.

First I’m going to talk about the week that I spent in Paris. Since we are in crisis we went to Paris by car (that's 9 or 10 hours inside a car!). I went to Paris with my family and we rented an apartment.

In Paris we went to a lot of clothing shops and we got really tired for walking a lot but the food in France is really good . We also went to the Fnac, which is a really big shopping center were they sell books, movies, computers and video games.

We had a great time in Paris and we  visited the Louvre and we also saw the Mona Lisa and went to the Sainte Chapelle, etc. And at the end of our trip we went to the Eiffel tower and we saw really impressive sights.

When we went back from Paris we went to our grandfathers' summerhouse in a lonely and calm village called Tortella during a week and It was really hot (but they have a very big town pool).

Some friends from other countries also came to visit us from Israel and Switzerland and stayed for a few days. And the days I was in Banyoles I met my friends and went to the pool.

So I had a very good Summer!

I couldn't upload my power point, sorry.
