Adjectives of personality

As you know, we began unit 1 with a review of personal descriptions. In this video by Des'ree you'll listen to her song You Gotta Be. In the chorus there are 8 different personality adjectives. Can you tell me which they are? Send a comment with the 8 adjectives and their translation into Spanish.

Enjoy the song!

Nice to meet you!

Hi, students! I think we should begin our blog by introducing ourselves, shouldn't we?

As you know my name is Elena. I was born in Córdoba, but I live in Seville. I am an English teacher and I enjoy my job. I think I am hardworking and loyal. I am also quiet. In my free time, I like reading and going out with my friends. My favourite sport is swimming. I like going to the swimming pool in summer and I love going to the beach.

Now it's your turn. Write a short comment introducing yourselves. Include: name, origin, residence, family, sports, likes, personality adjectives . . .

Good luck!
