Welcome to this new post!
These are the exercises to do before next week’s class:
> GRAMMAR: COUNTABLE and UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS
Remember to watch the video in Open World p. 59 if you have not done so yet. Here are some more exercises to practise this grammar point:
countable/uncountable nouns
> VOCABULARY: AIR TRAVEL (online exercises)
Do these two exercises to revise and memorise the vocabulary connected with the topic.
Air travel 1 Air travel 2
> LISTENING PRACTICE:
— At the airport. By doing this listening exercise you will not only practise listening comprehension but also learn and revise some of the English vocabulary you need to know when travelling by plane in real life.

> READING and USE of English:
— Travelling by plane This online exercise helps you use some of the topic-related vocabulary in context.
— Afraid of flying Fill in the gaps in the text with the sentences that have been removed from it.
> WRITING TASK (to be handed in during week 15-18th of March)
Here is the next writing assignment I would like you to do:
If you were a newspaper advice columnist (also called «agony aunt» -or «uncle»- in British English), what good advice could this desperate reader be given?
Make sure you use the appropriate vocabulary and structures that appear in the set phrases that the activity includes and you have seen in your book. Pay also attention to the advice tips concerning the writing plan and layout.
Please hand in your writing from Monday 15th to Thursday 18th of March. If possible, I’d rather you write it on a separate piece of paper -either handwritten o typed- and bring it to the school.
Try to do your best! This is already a 2nd term assignment and part of the year’s global assessment.
Cheers for now!
