Some / Any
We use some and any when we want to express an indeterminate quantity when referring to a noun, but we do not
mean exactly what that quantity is. By using some and any we are expressing the idea of “some but not many”.
Both some and any used accompanying countable plural nouns and uncountable nouns.
Some: it is used in affirmative and interrogative sentences. Although in the case of interrogative it is used
mainly to ask or offer something.

although there are some cases in which it is possible to use any affirmative sentences.
o I haven’t received any present for my birthday
o Do you have any question?
Much / Many
We use a much and many when we want to express the idea of a large quantity. The difference between using one

accompanying countable and uncountable nouns, although there are some exceptions in the use of these

Connectors
How to use them in use phrase?
Although each connector has its own rules, general recommendations can be highlighted for all connectors in
English, such as:
Rule 1: Position
o The grammatical connectors can be at the beginning of the sentence, at the end or between the two
ideas that join. The decision on where the connector occupies in the sentence is entirely up to the
writer. Although there are some that, due to their characteristics, it is recommended that they
always go in one place, for example, when we list (first, second, etc.), it is best to put the connector
at the beginning of each sentence.
1. Rule 3: Consistency
o It is vitally important to use appropriate connectors for the type of text we are writing. If we send a
message by WhatsApp to a friend, we can use informal connectors, while if we write a research text,
we must use formal connectors.

School Newspaper
The front page of the newspaper (or front page)
We begin by analyzing the different parts of a newspaper talking about the cover, that is, the front page that we see
of this publication. The cover has different elements that are important to know and that we are going to analyze in
more detail below.
2. Headlines
There is little text on the cover, as the goal is to get the reader's attention. To achieve this, short, concise and
striking phrases are used that attract interest. The headlines can be accompanied by a subtitle or a brief explanation
that will be expanded on the relevant page.
3. Photographs
The front page of the newspaper is very visual and, therefore, photographs abound here that provide visual content
and lighter and more pleasant information. The headlines are usually accompanied by photos and, later, by a short
text that slightly expands the information.
- News related to the institution - Civic activities
- Sports - Spare time / free time
- Cultural activities and arts
