Hey, Andres.

I will tell you what I learned today.

Today I saw several themes of continuous times in the past and the use of auxiliaries,
also on how is the correct way to use them.
I liked the activities of the present continuous as it is easy and helps me to speak more
fluently.

I don't like some activities that the teacher do in class because I don't understand
some themes that the te teacher teach in class.
I will send you some images of the work they left :(

Well, see you later. Goodbye
