Grammar review: Using the zero conditional, we made truthful sentences and fake ones. Example: If you are hungry, you eat food, If you touch fire, its cold.

We also went over the meanings of all the new words, or words they didn’t know. There was lots of discussion and preparation for the upcoming test.
