Profesora yo revisando la plataforma del colegio, entre al boletin a ver las notas y pues usted en clase no las dejo ver y pues yo vi que la pasaba en 4 - 4.3. Entonces entre y vi y me aparecia como perdida en 3.2. Profesora entonces era para que me revisara si usted coloco mal o algo. Gracias, espero su respuesta. Que tenga buena tarde. Mi correo: santibotero13@gmail.com; 11 July 2017 at 12:31
SONIA RUIZ said...: This comment has been removed by the author.; 11 July 2017 at 13:58
SONIA RUIZ said...: Santiago las notas sí fueron mostradas en clase, por favor sé más serio con tus comentarios.; 11 July 2017 at 13:59
Unknown said...: Buenas tardes profesora. Habla nuevamente Santiago Botero del grado 9-1.
Quisiera primero que todo decirle que me disculpe por el comentario que coloque días pasados, no fue mi intención decirle que usted no había dejado ver las notas, solo fue que por mi error ortográfico me faltó colocar la tilde, Y si, usted si no las dejó ver, también nos dio puntos extras y una nota de listening para cambiar una nota mala a una buena. La verdad profesora no era mi intención decirle que usted hacia mal su trabajo para nada, usted lo hace muy bien y nos exije muy bien. Nuevamente le pido disculpas profesora. Gracias.; 14 July 2017 at 10:31
SONIA RUIZ said...: Buenas tardes Santiago, gracias por tus disculpas y espero que la próxima vez que tengas dudas las expreses en forma de pregunta y con buena ortografía. Todos tenemos derecho a no comprender una directriz o una explicación, pero lo que no debemos hacer es afirmar cosas de las cuales no estamos seguros; preguntar es la clave. Espero que esto nos sirva a los dos para pensar antes de hablar, para nuestro caso, pensar antes de escribir y releer para evitar herir susceptibilidades. Feliz fin de semana.; 15 July 2017 at 16:05
Anonymous said...: Hola profesora, me preguntaba si me podías ayudar en algo?
Llevo mucho tiempo estudiando ingles por Internet y nada me funciona, no siento que avanzo, creo encontrar un método pero al final llego al mismo punto sin salida. Profesora profa me podrías dar algunos consejos para mejorar mi aprendizaje. Gracias ☺

SONIA RUIZ said...: The reflexive pronouns are:

Singular: myself - yourself - himself - herself - itself
Plural: ourselves - yourselves - themselves

When we use a reflexive pronoun
We use a reflexive pronoun:

• as a direct object when the object is the same as the subject of the verb:

I am teaching myself to play the piano.
Be careful with that knife. You might cut yourself.

We can use a reflexive pronoun as direct object with most transitive verbs, but these are the most common:

amuse blame cut dry enjoy help
hurt introduce kill prepare satisfy teach

Some verbs change their meaning slightly when they have a reflexive pronoun as direct object:

Would you like to help yourself to another drink?
= Would you like to take another drink.
I wish the children would behave themselves.
= I wish the children would behave well.
He found himself lying by the side of the road.
= He was surprised when he realised that he was at the side of the road.
I saw myself as a famous actor.
= I imagined that I was a famous actor.
She applied herself to the job of mending the lights.
= She worked very hard to mend the lights.
He busied himself in the kitchen.
= He worked busily in the kitchen.
I had to content myself with a few Euros.
= I had to be satisfied with a few Euros.
We do not use a reflexive pronoun after verbs which describe things people usually do for themselves, such as wash, shave, dress:

He washed [himself] in cold water.
He always shaved [himself] before going out in the evening.
Michael dressed [himself] and got ready for the party.

We only use reflexives with these verbs for emphasis:

He dressed himself in spite of his injuries.
She’s old enough to wash herself.

• as indirect object when the indirect object is the same as the subject of the verb:

Would you like to pour yourself a drink.
We’ve brought ourselves something to eat.

• as the object of a preposition when the object refers to the subject of the clause:

They had to cook for themselves.
He was feeling very sorry for himself.

Warning
But we use personal pronouns, not reflexives, after prepositions of place...

He had a suitcase beside him.

and after with when it means "accompanied by":

She had a few friends with her.

We use a reflexive pronoun...

• with the preposition by when we want to show that someone did something alone and/or without any help:

He lived by himself in an enormous house.
She walked home by herself.

The children got dressed by themselves.
I prepared the whole meal by myself.

• to emphasise the person or thing we are referring to:

Kendal itself is quite a small town.

especially if we are talking about someone very famous:

Sir Paul McCartney himself sang the final song.

We often put the reflexive pronoun at the end of the clause when we are using it for emphasis:

I baked the bread myself.
She mended the car herself; 5 September 2018 at 04:17
