Hello Eva,

You had to write the journal on Tuesday, not on Wednesday. As you wrote later, the verbs have to be in the past. Here you have my corrections. Erase the words in brackets.

Yesterday in class of Social Sciences Paqui (has) explained the French revolution(s). The causes of the revolution were:

- Economic crisis: bad harvests, increase of prices of staples.
-Financial crisis: huge State deficit.
-Discontent of the bourgeois.
-Influence of the ideas of Enlightenment.

Then she (has) explained the beginning of the revolution, she (has) wrote a summary on the blackboard:

- Four different finance ministers advised king Louis XVI that the only way to reduce the debt was making the privileged pay taxes. The privileged complained and demanded the call of the Estates-General.

-Call of the Estates-General:


• Every estate wrote its demands in books of grievances.
• The traditional way of the Estate-General was: separated meetings, same number of deputies for every estate and voting per estate.
• The Third Estate demanded: collective meetings, double representation and voting per person. The king only gave double representation.
- Meeting of the Estates-General:


• The meeting started in the traditional way, but the deputies of the Third Estate continued to complain. On the 19th June the king closed the Estates-General. The representatives of the Third Estate looked for an alternative place, a tennis court and on the 20th June they made the Tennis Court Oath.
After this Paqui showed a video of a teacher singing a French revolution. Finally Paqui (has) gave the exam.

Bye.
