  1. Dear María:

    I really have a problem with my English listening skills...

    I had seen all the videos related to the instructions of how to build a sand castle but I couldn't understand all the words.

    At this moment I know how he built the sand castle. I had learnt some words like arch, crenelation, sharpen or staircase. In adition I discover that he needed a knife and to take the sun position into account.

    Did he speak about romanic windows?

    I'm starting to learn English and at the moment I think English people speaks too fast... ;o)

  2. Hi Mª José,

    Believe me. Your English is not so bad and your listening skills are perfect if we take into account that this person speaks really fast and you are beginning now with your English.

  3. all of the words you told could be perfectly accepted, though I don't remember now if all of them were mentioned in the speech. I will have a look.

  5. Hello Maria!
    This man shows us how to make a sandcastle.For this task he explains the instruments used.Among these tools are:
    A knife and a knife-edge round,two large paddlefish,three shovels,a cube, a small paddlefish,a water gun...

    And for him use a sunscreem, and two knees.

    And to decorate the castle, using molds cookies, and a dragon who said it·s his friend.

    This is what I understood and in the video.
    Greetings
