APLE HOMEWORK (deadline October 6th)

Hi students,
Your homework for this weekend has two parts.


Part 1. Create a yahoo email account for you. You can do it at this link. As your ID you can try aple_yournameandsurname. You can use the password you want, but please, don't forget it. You will need this account for future purposes.


Part 2. Say your opinions and your first feelings about the new series we started watching yesterday (Desperate Housewives). Say why you think Mary Alice killed herself. For this activity, you will have to use your brand new microphone and subscribe in voicethread. Don't forget to say who you are. You have to click on comment, then on record, write your real name, give an email address (you have already created one in yahoo before) and a password (remember not to forget it), then allow your computer to access and then start recording your voice. When you finish, just press on stop recording. You don't need to talk more than 2 or 3 minutes. If you like what you have said, save the comment, otherwise, start again until you are happy with the result. Good luck. I hope you don't have too many technical problems.

WELCOME TO THE COURSE, STUDENTS

Dear students,
First of all, have a look at the blog and don't forget to bookmark it so you can find it easier next time you come to visit us.
Your task for this weekend is quite simple. You have to spend AT LEAST ONE HOUR practising your oral English. Then, you have to write a comment here saying what you have done and how (if you have watched a film, mention the film, if you like it, if you watched it with subtitles or not, when you watched it, etc). Don't forget to write your full name at the end or at the beginning of your comment.
Enjoy your weekend and try to practise your oral English at least 15 minutes every day.
Regards
Javier
