Buenas tardes.
Durante la clase de hoy, con el fútbol en las pantallas de algún móvil que otro de fondo -sabia decisión- hemos corregido 3 fichas de ejercicios de relativos, tal y como estaba previsto.
Ya damos por cerrado este bloque de contenidos hasta más adelante, puesto que ya hemos explicado, profundizado con creces en cómo se forman este tipo de oraciones llamadas de 'relativo', tanto explicativas -las que llevan las comas-, como las especificativas.
Os dejo las respuestas de la ficha nº 11, para unir frases, que es lo más probable que os encontréis en vuestros exámenes.
