Things to Do

Don't forget to do some English during the Christmas and New Year holiday! Here are some useful links for you to use:

British Council Learn English Christmas Activities. There are some nice things to do here.

Patricia Pérez Miguel's wonderful blogs to help you learn:

The English You Need
and
Visual English, which also has some nice Christmas things on it.

And of course, it's always worth checking the Rome Metrozine for things to read and do.
