Hi again! By now most of you will have been in class and had some time to become familiar with the coursebook, the ‘technological’ issues and everything else. Those I have not met yet, please try to get updated on the book exercises and activities we have done in these past two weeks.
I expect you already have
1. Your Open World Student’s book + class audios, answer key and scripts (Workbook optional)
2. Your Educastur user name and password + your 365 account
and that you can access Teams without problems and join our «equipo» AnaCarmen B2.1. I will be periodically uploading the FILES you will need to study at home and do your homework to the section Archivos. From there you can easily download the files onto your personal device.
And… here are this week’s Self-study tasks. Try to do your best and complete them before next week’s lesson.
◊ ‘Open World’
- Grammar reference p.204, Present perfect simple and continous: grammar rules and exercises
- Listening A breakdown in comunication p.12. Listen to it thrice, then check your answers and read the script in detail to find out where you had problems. Listen one more time while reading the text.
- Read the stories on pages 12 and 13 (Alice’s experience of taking the train and The lost suitcase (plus spelling exercise). Pay attention to the key facts and vocabulary in the stories. Would you be able to tell the stories in your own words in next class?
