Happy New Year!

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas break and an amazing start of the New Year!

Rate your holiday using stars.
1-2 stars = not that fun, meh.
7-8 stars = great, loved it!

1. 1-2 stars
2. 3-4 stars
3. 5-6 stars
4. 7-8 stars

Share the thing that you enjoyed most during your holiday.

Sounds like we could all use a good break, every now and then. 

I'm happy to see you all back! Hopefully we will all stay healthy and safe the coming months.

FYI (for your information):

Your next holiday is the ''Voorjaarsvakantie''. 

This starts February 20th and ends February 28th.

A month and a half from now... 

Now, for your test.

The test was officially planned for today, of course this is not going to take place today. 

Instead, your test in the testweek will be a COMBINATION of your Theme 2 test and your reading test. We will make sure that the test is do-able in an hour's time.

I would love to talk some more about your holidays. Let's use the grammar from Theme 2 to do so.

We hebben het gehad over de past continuous, oftewel: de onvoltooid verleden tijd. Hoe zat dat ook alweer?

1. has/have + voltooid deelwoord
2. has/have + werkwoord -ing
3. was/were + werkwoord -ing
4. am/is/are + werkwoord -ing

Vul in met de past continuous:
I __________ ______________ to my grandmother on the phone.

1. am talking
2. was talking

Vul in met de past continuous:
We ________ ____________ a Christmas meal together.

1. are cooking
2. were cooking
3. was cooking

Vul in met de past continuous:
We ______ ___________ games all Christmas Eve.

What did you do this Christmas? Schrijf een zin met een past continuous over iets dat jij hebt gedaan.

Nu kon die past continuous ook door iets onderbroken worden. Dat doe je dan met een past simple.

Vul in met de past simple:
He was driving home when his girlfriend __________.

1. was calling
2. called
3. is calling

Vul in met de past simple:
She was decorating the tree when the cat ___________ it.

1. was attacking
2. is attacking
3. attacked

Vul een past contiuous en een past simple in:
They ____ _______ (sing) Christmas songs when the phone _______ (ring).

Alright, that's it for today! 

Thanks for being here and participating. I'd love to hear your holiday stories, so don't hesitate to send me one of them through Teams!

See you on Friday!
