Student’s Book

Page 48-9, Exercise 4, Reading and Listening, sections A-D. Repeat all the listening sections, 5.8 to 5.13 done in class with the text switched on. Use the ‘pause’ to stop, check vocabulary and take notes.

Page 54-55 Colloquial English, sections 1-3

and if not done already:

Page 43, only Exercise 8, Video Listening, sections A-C

Pages 44-45, Revise and Check, all sections, using your online materials and working with a classmate or classmates on WhatsApp or another social media platform.

Page 47, Exercise 3, Vocabulary and Pronunciation, sections A-E, including page 157.

Writing, based on Page 116, so follow the instructions in sections a-h. Work with your group. You will probably need 2 meetings on a social media platform like Zoom. Make sure you talk in English all the time. Someone in the meeting should act as secretary and type the first draft on their pc as the others produce ideas and sentences. They should send the draft to everyone so you can all check it on your own and try to correct and improve it. At the second meeting, you should check and correct it, try to enrich it and produce an error-free final version. The secretary sends it to me on behalf of the group. Everyone keeps a copy. No individual stories, please. Take your time. No hurry. Do the exercise properly.

Writing, based on Page 117, essay ‘For and Against’ – Don’t do the titles in the book, do this one ‘Taking part in the Erasmus program: what are the benefits and drawbacks?’ Work with your group. You will probably need 2 meetings on a social media platform like Zoom. Make sure you talk in English all the time. Someone in the meeting should act as secretary and type the first draft on their pc as the others produce ideas and sentences. They should send the draft to everyone. At the second meeting, you should check and correct it, try to enrich it and produce an error-free final version. The secretary sends it to me on behalf of the group. Everyone keeps a copy.
