Some questions about our self-assessment:

Which skill/s do you need to improve?

How can you improve it / them?

What can you do better now?

What did you do in English outside class?

For the next term I need to improve the writing skill. I can improve it by writing a bit more in English. Now, I can reach an agreement better and I´ve learnt more about Sydney. Outside class I have watched videos in English.

CHICKEN SALAD 

Eating healthy fare doesn’t require an all-night cookathon that leaves every pot and pan in your home stacked ceiling-high in the sink. Leave those endeavors to Gordon Ramsay. But we’re not saying you should toss all ambition aside for a frozen pizza, either. 

. This salad, which contains these five main ingredients—corn tortillas, black beans, corn, chicken, and spinach—and can be ready in about 15 minutes. It will pack a punch on your palate but leave your waistline intact.

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 176°C. Place tortillas on a baking tin. When oven is hot, heat tortillas until crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Prepare corn according to package directions.

2. Divide spinach, chicken, black beans, tomatoes, avocado, red onion, and cooked corn among serving plates. In a bowl, whisk together sour cream, olive oil, lime juice, chipotle chili powder, and a few pinches of salt.

3. Break tortillas into 1" pieces and sprinkle over salads. Drizzle sour cream dressing on top.
