 Step 2: Ruth’s routine – Frequency adverbs.

Ruth’s routine

When I go to bed, I usually brush my teeth at 8:00 o’clock after dinner, but sometimes I forget it
and then I must get up in the middle of the night to do so. Occasionally, when I'm too lazy, I set
up an alarm just for that. On the other hand, there is one thing I'll never be able to do, and it is
washing my face before bed, because that always wakes me up. In the morning, I always wake
up and immediately take a shower, I usually put on shorts and a t-shirt, sometimes I wear a
formal dress when I have to go to work. I often have eggs for breakfast, but always I must drink
a delicious coffee.

 Step 4: The letter

Read the following letter to my mom and complete the activities below.

Dear Mom.

I am really happy to write to you, last week I was in la Guajira, it is a magical place. I
enjoyed every moment there. On Wednesday, I was landing in Riohacha’s airport at 1:00 pm, I
had lunch there in Riohacha and I spent the whole day around. At 3:00 pm I was eating friche in
the main park, it is delicious. Then around 3:30 pm I was walking around to know the place and
buying some souvenirs, at almost 7:00 pm that day I was doing the check-in in the hotel, it is a
wonderful hotel, with a swimming pool and excellent service. On Thursday I was waking up
really early, I was very excited because I was going to travel to Cabo de la Vela, it is around 3
hours from Riohacha by bus. There in Cabo de la Vela, the landscapes are really beautiful, I
stopped for a minute and I was drinking a delicious juice in a Rancheria in front of the sea. Then
I continued walking and I stopped again in the Arcoiris beach, an amazing place full of sand
colors and very calm. Finally, I went to Ojo del Agua beach, where I was enjoying of calm and
crystal waters to swim, after that, I went to sleep in a Rancheria, it is a real and a marvelous
experience. On Friday the last day of my traveling, I was visiting El Faro, the most tourist place
in Cabo de la Vela and I was running because I also wanted to visit Punta Gallinas, before
coming back and I did it. There in Punta Gallinas I was visiting The Taroa Dunes where is
amazing to see the sand mountains and at the end of those mountains, there is the gorgeous sea.
On Saturday I was coming back to Cali, were 3 amazing days full of moments and experiences
very hard to forget.

I can’t wait to take you there with me, dear mom.

Hugs.

 Step 5: Reflection and personal growth

¿Estudié y aprendí los temas sugeridos del e-Book?

• ¿Participé en el foro dentro de los tiempos indicados?

• ¿En cuáles de los siguientes espacios de interacción y aprendizaje participé: Foro de esta tarea,
CIPAS, Web conferencias, grupo de WhatsApp, grupo de telegram?

• ¿Qué aprendí de esta tarea?

• ¿Es importante lo que estoy aprendiendo? ¿por qué?

• ¿Cómo aporta este aprendizaje a mi vida personal y profesional?

Reflection and personal growth.

The E-BOOK was an enrichment space since I was able to recognize topics that I had done at
some point. Where I was able to participate in the times stipulated in the forum and shared the
progress of my work, I was also able to be in the work forum, cipas, web conference and
WhatsApp groups. I learned that the topics of the day to day, we also create sentences in the past
progressive and past simple.

What I learned was very important since we are gaining a bit of experience to be able to
communicate with people from abroad, or watch series or movies with that little knowledge. For
me it is important to learn English because it opens more doors for work
