SEMINAR!!!!!!!

Guidelines and useful links for the seminar:

Remember the presentations MUST TALK ABOUT SOMETHING DIFFICULT in English. Explanations that we can find in any grammar book are NOT welcome. So think well before preparing the activities. 

In this dropbox link you will find a lot of pdf's related to word classes. They are just REFERENCE! You should decide if you will use it or not, or just parts of it. There are also some ppts from previous groups; again, use them as a GUIDE, do not copy everything!

In this dropbox folder you will find MANY grammar books. Again, they are reference and should be used with caution for the seminar, if you want to use them at all.
