And now that it's here, relax, rest, share happiness with your faimily and friends and forget a bit about school (those of you who can), but don't forget about your English with my blog, try games and watch videos and sing the lyrics at home. Try to watch "Last Christmas" video and sing along!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR FOR YOU ALL!!
