I believe that it is a good way to learn English because is funner; I enjoyed the experience of learning English . I realized that the use of blogs is very useful to the students because they will have the opportunity to learn from their own mistakes.

Why grammar is important for a EFL Teacher?
It is important because Teachers of English have to know the language that they will learn. Grammar is the essential tool for teaching a second language also you have to know about punctuation, pronunciation, etc. The correct use of grammar is what that your students required for learning well.

Tic-Tac-Toe
I found the Tic-Tac-Toe very interesting for teaching English to the students specially children enjoy games a lot. Conditional tenses are difficult to teach even in some cases bored so, you as a teacher have to find the appropriate strategy for teaching conditional lessons.
Structure of Conditionals
Types of conditionals:
Zero Conditional: If + Simple Present + Simple Present
Example: If Carol goes to the university, she doesn`t come to my home.
First Conditional: If + Simle Present + Will/Won't
Example: If you eat a lot, you will get sick.
Second Conditional: If + Simple Past + Would/Wouldn't
Example: Carla would study more If she got up early.
Third Conditional: If + Past Perfect + Would Have + Past Participle
Example: Jean would have played if he had finished his homework.
Zero Conditional: If + Simple Present + Simple Present
Example: If Carol goes to the university, she doesn`t come to my home.
First Conditional: If + Simle Present + Will/Won't

Third Conditional: If + Past Perfect + Would Have + Past Participle
Example: Jean would have played if he had finished his homework.
Comment about conditionals
The exercises about conditionals were average difficult. The first website was too easy, but the second and third one were more difficult. Which didn't means that I haven't done them, on the contrary I made my best effort.
what did you learn today?
a) I learnt about conditionals:
zero conditional, first conditional, second conditional and third conditional.
b) I almost got the all answers correct. I think those kind of exercises are neccesary for improving my grammar althoug I have to practice a lot.
c) I need study more about the third conditional because sometimes I forgot the past participle of the verbs.
d) Yes, I have a doubt. I have problems with the punctution because I've always forgot the comma I don´t know in what specific part of the sentence goes.
