Hi Elena,

I'm quite impressed with your notes. I't a great summary of grammar and vocabulary. I've made a few corrections and now they're ready to be uploaded. Bring your pendrive on Thursday before your French class and I'll pass them on to you so you can upload them using mediafire.

Thanks a lot
Ana

Thank you!
Maybe these notes are very long.I have a problem, I copy everything, so I need to group and classify all the information.

See you on Thursday!

It's easy!
In this way,people have one more day to have a look at them.

I suppose you'll comment this in class this afternoon. Besides, I'm sending it to my classmates by email.

Now, I have to locate your changes. It will be like looking for "Wally",je je.

Tomorrow, before my French class I have to ask you some doubts and please, give a copy of today exercices.

Enjoy all yourselves this afternoon in the "party". While, I'll be choosing my flat!!!

Thanks!
