Yesterday we did several SPEAKING ACTIVITIES.

Firstly, we talked about the EMBARRASSING SITUATIONS you watched in the video I posted on Monday (British sitcom OFF THE HOOK) and then you talked about your personal ones, as the one you can see in the pic jejejeje ;O))

We then talked about the pros and cons of SINGLE-SEX/CO-EDUCATIONAL SCHOOLS (text p. 14-15) and explained HOW TO PREPARE A MONOLOGUE.

We then did the Listening on p. 16 - ex 2b (Unit 1E) about EATING HABITS and also talked about your personal habits. 

HOMEWORK:

Apart from Workbook p. 9+10 and Progress Test 1 (dossier), the main taks is to PREPARE A MONOLOGUE ABOUT EATING HABITS and then RECORD YOURSELVES DOING THE MONOLOGUE.

You can use any device (computer programmes, mobile phone, webcams...) or go to this webpage VOCAROO.COM and then, send me the recording BY EMAIL. 

DON'T WRITE THE WHOLE TEXT AND RECORD YOURSELVES READING THE TEXT!!!

The idea is to prepare a scheme, a draft with ideas, vocabulary related to the topic, structures and connectors you can use and then try to talk about the topic using all these things, as if you were in class. 

REMEMBER, to use connectors to link your idea. Start with an INTRO and finish with a CONCLUSION. 

Finally, we did the pronunciation exercises on p. 15 (SILENT LETTERS) and finished with this FUNNY VIDEO ABOUT THE DIFFICULTY TO PRONOUNCE ENGLISH PROPERLY. Hope you enjoyed it!!!

See u on Monday ;O))
