This week's work

On Tuesday we finally finished unit 2. We covered lesson 2D and work on showing concern, giving and responding to advice (we focused on intonation)

We also had a look at notices and practice in class. Students had to leave a notice in the blog board (click ) for homework. I handed out some photocopies on the topics, if you are interested and did not come to class, please ask for one.

On Thursday we started with a listening practice on journalist Roxana Saberi (click here for more information) and then students had 40 minutes to complete the progress test for unit 2.

After an early break we worked on the song "You can't hurry love", the lyrics are at the end of the book and we did an activity where studets had to choose between two words and underline the one they listened to. We also had a look at a karaoke version (check general blog)
