ADJECTIVES WITH -ING/-ED

Dear Students!!

Three days to give you the answer of the previous exercise. I may imagine that it has been difficult to understand as it isn´t British english. anyway, I feel myself somehow obliged to ask you for one more try.

I´m sure you´ll get to answer at least one!

Apart from that, I would like to post a grammar exercise about ed- versus -ing adjectives. It´s not difficult to do.

A good opportunity to practice if you came to class; and a good one not to miss the lesson if you didn´t.

More exercises on describing personality

Dear Students;

After having listened to this wonderful Whitney´s love song, it´s time to undetake the dull task of revising adjectives again by doing this crossword.

Don´t panic in case you feel unable to complete it: a high-level exercise that will make you think for a while. A good interactive exercise for those who came to the class and for those who missed it.
