EVA SÁNCHEZ PORTFOLIO 4ºA

SELF-ASSESMENT In this second term self-assesment I think I have improved some aspects, like vocabulary, in general I have had better marks in the exams, because I have studied it more. Also I have learnt a lot about gothic literature and The Inquisition with our classes presentations. This term´s book has been very interesting for me, my favourite story is the Pit and the Pendulum. I hope to improve some things in the next term and get better marks.
