NEW UNIT: ANIMALS!!!! UNDISCOVERED WORLD!!!

Dear students,

We start a new unit, quite interesting one, related to animals. I wonder if you like animals and if you have some pets at home. I do not have any pets but some friends of mine consider them as really important beings in their lives. 
Throughout this unit we are going to discover animals that you do not suspect they exist. You will see....Meanwhile, I would like you to make comments about how important animals are in your life or if you have any pets, just tell us how you behave with them and how they are. I´m looking forward to hearing your animals´stories.
BFN!!!!

And... here you are the best ones. I have choosen three. CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE THREE STUDENTS FOR DOING THEIR BEST.... and I encourage the rest ones to try to do it better and better.
