-Tasks: activities you have to do, homework.

-To undertake: to do.

We will discuss your ideas in the next session.

Hope that's useful!

¿Qué os parece el Blog? ¿Encontráis fácil o difícil entenderlo? Estamos intentado "sumergiros" en el inglés, de manera que en principio, todas las entradas serán escritas en inglés. En principio vosotros debéis hacerlo así también, con frases sencillas, como las que hacemos en clase. Si queréis poner algo pero no sabéis muy bien cómo escribirlo intentad escribir el comentario en inglés y, debajo, en castellano.

¡Gracias!
