EliminarThanks teacher Orlando for your contribution.
He who said that A TEACHER SHOULD THINK AS A STUDENT AT THE MOMENT OF PLANNING was completely right.

WE DO NOT TEACH THE LANGUAGE FOR THE SAKE OF THE LANGUAGE, WE DO IT AS A MEANS OF PERSONAL AND SOCIAL EXPRESSION.
I read about that news whre parents were helping their songs to cheat on their tests, the parents scaled the walls of the school and throug information in planes of paper... and now that is a class... very good. Intersting Teacher orlando.
