MY HOMETOWN
Many years ago, I was born in Seattle, Washington USA. Seattle is located in the Northwest corner of the USA. Recently, Seattle has become the focus of much international attention. Many films have been made there, probably the most famous of which is Sleepless in Seattle starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. Seattle is also known as the birthplace of "Grunge" music; both Pearl Jam and Nirvana are from Seattle. For older people like me, it should be noted that Jimmi Hendrix was born in Seattle! NBA fans know Seattle for the "Seattle Supersonics", a team that has played basketball in Seattle for more than 30 years. Unfortunately, Seattle is also famous for its bad weather. I can remember weeks and weeks of grey, wet weather when I was growing up.
Seattle has also become one of the fastest-growing business areas in the United States. Two of the most important names in the booming business scene in Seattle are Microsoft and Boeing. Microsoft was founded and is owned by the world-famous Bill Gates (how much of his software is on your computer?). Boeing has always been essential to the economic situation in Seattle. It is located to the north of Seattle and famous jets such as the "Jumbo" have been manufactured there for more than 50 years!
Seattle is positioned between Puget Sound and the Cascade Mountains. The combination of its scenic location, thriving business conditions and exciting cultural scene makes Seattle one of America's most interesting cities.

The topic is very interesting as it gives us ways to express a prayer in daily life beams.
In the videos that combine expressions observed nowadays the simple present and simple past which is very interesting.
I really liked the subject and I learned a lot.

Well this topic I found very interesting because I recognized auxiliary verbs and past, and especially helped me a lot because you can meet many tourist lugeres most countries. Helped me a lot in my vocabulary and my expression in the subject.
The passive voice is very important because it helps us to focus more in the action and less in the person who made the action. At first, it seems difficult but it is not, we only have to use correctly the verb in past participle and that is all. I like the first video because it explains clearly the passive voice.

Jacqueline Castillo 5to B
I found this session very entertaining and cultural look at developing tasks and listen to my fellow OVEREXPOSURE learned a lot about different places and ancient and modern wonders.
I found this session very interesting because it helped me to learn something more of the past participle and tner I care to have a good vocabulary in my English grammar.
The passive voice is something important in English grammar. It allows us to speak of the noun, and allows our vocabulary grows up, so there is more ways to talk classic besides prayer. With the exercises I could understand how to write a sentence in the passive voice.
Oscar Roberto Granada Navarro 5° "B"
This topic is interesting because it allows us to formulate sentences from the other part of the sentence, and the session was more enjoyable because we listen to music before to start.

It was a very interesting class and very important, where passive learning.The song we sing at the beginning of each class is also very important because it helps us develop pronunciation.
In my opinion this topic I found very interesting in this topic could also learn more about Seattle. It attracted my attention, Because is a very illuminated at night. I could learn how to use the passive voice in my prayers. I like the course because I think English is very important to us.
Jackeline Carrillo Leon_5To"B"
the theme of you passive is a very important and interesting because it helps to improve the issue of English in grammar and other subjects more ...
The passive voice is widely used in the English language as I am not used to using this type of prayer, it became difficult to perform the prayers, but it helps me to better implement my lexicon.
Timaná 5B
For my the class of Passive Voice is very important for the grammar of the english, maybe sometimes is something difficult but I am sure, that with more practice someone can say, writer and read it easyly.
