    “Read at least 8 sentences related to past events.” (leer, por lo menos, 8 oraciones sobre eventos
    pasados)

    del curso hasta el domingo 9 de agosto. Su trabajo será revisado entre el lunes y miércoles.

    de uno de sus compañer@s (en tercera persona**) y enviarlo al grupo hasta el jueves 13 del mes en
    curso.
    Use vocabulario variado, entonación y pronunciación adecuada y muestre eficiencia.
