English classes in maristes

In Maristes school in 3th ESO we do three hours a week of english classes.
In this classes we work with a workbook, in it there are nine units and in every unit our teacher gives us a dossier with some vocabulary and grammar activities. That dossier also has some readings and listenings.
One hour every week we go to another classroom where we do different activities. There activities are organised in corners. There are eight different corners: TV, audio-reading, reading, music, internet, games, computer, speaking and magazine.
When we finish a unit we do an exam it has different parts, the most important parts are grammar and vocabulary and other parts like readings, listenings...
At least every term we do a termtest about all that we have studied each term.
