"While activity"

Dear students,

First, I´m reaching you so late because for some reason, I couldn´t open my blog. I convinced the system just now!

The while activity proposed for tomorrow (today...) is to look for parts of films, videos, sitcoms, you name it... where you can find examples of exceptions to the LLI Rule, in particular, event sentences to be compiled in a file - your common file! There´s internet on the premises

See you all.
