WEEK 4 ASSIGNMENT

Hi everyone...

This time we'll focus on likes and dislikes... So for this activity you will tell me and your peers what sports you like, love, don't like, or  hate... And the reason why you think that about this or that sport. You just have to write a paragraph (5 or 6 sentences) explaining why you think about that sport in that way.

For instance, in my case; I love basketball because I like so much they way players look when they jump. Besides it is a very tough sport... I like it also because I'm not pretty good at playing footbal or other sports.
