Tuesday 19th November 2013

   Hello everybody!



   I'm so lucky to do the journal today. Hahaha.
   Well, today in the Social Sciences class, we have taken the exam: it consisted of 6 questions:
  -The first question said that we had to choose four of the eight words and explain them.
  -In the second question we had  to explain all that we knew about the absolute monarchy.
  -The third one has been very long, because we have had to explain all about the differences between the  Renaissance and  Baroque art: chronology, the features...
  -The next question has been very long too; it said that we had to choose between Charles I and Philip II  and explain all that we knew: heritage, problems in their kingdoms...
  -The fifth question was a list of events and we had to write if they ocurred during Philip III's reign, Philip IV's reign,  Charles II's reign or during the English Revolutions
  -In the last question, we had to explain the painting of The Meninas (but the real name is Philip IV's family):  who was the painter and the features of the painting.

My opinion: the exam has been easy but a bit long. For me, the worses question have been the third and the sixth. I think that my mark in the exam will be between the 8 and 8,5; I hope that all of you will get the same mark as me.

 Meanwhile we were doing the exam, Paqui has told to María Sánchez to sit properly and a few seconds later, María has hit her head with the collage of the relief of the Iberian Peninsula.
 And another thing is that we haven't written any word in the glossary.
  That's all, See you!
   Guillermo.

Hi Guillermo, your journal is very complete considering that you have spoken about the exam.
In the 4th line you have written "words" but its more correct that you uses "concepts"
You can also said that Paqui has given us part of the breaktime to finish de exam
Congratulations

Hello Guillermo:
These are my comments on your journal :
The first question said that we had to choose four of the eight words given and explain them.
who the painter was and the features of the drawing.
the worst questions have been the third and the sixth.
I think that my mark in the exam will be between 8 You don’t need to write an article before the mark
While we were doing the exam.. Meanwhile means “mientras tanto”
We haven’t written any words You must use the plural after “any”

Hi Guille!

I don't understand how you can remember the questions of the exam. I couldn't do it after study for this exam. When I finished for studying the exam my head was full hahaha.
I also hope that my mark will be that. I'm so nervous, because I don't have any idea that which will be my mark.
Very good journal.

Hello,

These are my comments:

- You can say "we have taken the exam. Remember this expression "to take an exam".


- The third one/questionbecause we have had to explain

- The fifth one/question....we had to write if they ocurred

- we had to explain the painting of The Meninas. You have to write the names of the paintings in Italic font. Do the same with Philip IV's family

-...who (was) the painter was and the features of the painting

- ...has told (to) María Sánchez to sit properly...

- And another thing is...

You could add what words you decided to define in the first question and when you correct the jpournal, you can add a postscript (P.S) telling about what your exam was like. If your mark corresponded to your expectations or not.

See you!
