Estimados lectores:

Debido a todas las consultas que me realizan para seguir este Curso Básico de Inglés para Principiantes en esta Plataforma, y se les hace difícil su seguimiento,  deseo  explicarles que estamos en espera del diseño de la nueva plataforma de Over- Blog, sin embargo, les oriento como pueden seguir los distintos temas del curso, según muestra la imagen:

EXPLICACIÓN

1) Al centro y en la parte superior pueden notar, encerrado con círculos rojos, tanto a la derecha como a la izquierda de: LECCIÓN Nº 1- La oración CURSOS GRATUITOS  Presionando allí,  EN LOS CÍRCULOS, pueden encontrar las distintas lecciones.

2) Mas arriba , en rectángulos, sobre fondo celeste se encuentra el MENÚ. Marcado con círculos rojos pueden leer Inglés y Ejercicios. Presionando allí, también pueden encontrar tanto las lecciones como ejercicios para practicar.

Mientras tanto, estamos en espera que OVER-BLOG nos anuncie el cambio de plataforma y diseño, de tal manera que sea mas fácil, tanto la publicación de contenidos, asi como el seguimiento de este curso.

Por otra parte, deseo enfatizar el deseo personal que tengo, que comprendan todas las lecciones que encontrarán publicadas en este blog y si tuvieran alguna duda, consulta o necesitaran profundizar el idioma, practicar conversación  y/o  tener algunas clases personalizadas ONLINE, solo tienen que comunicarse conmigo.

11. Be carefull !! . Lightnings and thunders there will be today. = Ten cuidado !! Hoy habrá relámpagos y truenos.
12. It is rainning cats and dogs. = Es una lluvia torrencial ( Modismo).

En primer lugar realiza la lectura de estas dos historias, intentando efectuar la comprensión del contenido al mismo tiempo. En segundo lugar traduce al español las mismas.

Recomendación: Si estas siguiendo las lecciones de este blog, seguramente habrás habilitado un cuaderno (recomendación que dí en el proceso de las distintas lecciones) para ir anotando las palabras nuevas que aparecen en las diferentes lecciones  publicadas.
