Homework for Christmas. Second term 1, 2 & 3. Deadline Thursday January 10th.

Hi students.
I hope you are having a good time with no lessons and exams to worry about.
Here's your homework for Christmas. You have about 3 weeks to work on it, but try not to leave everything for the last moment as usual.

Homework 1/10 is all from your book "Real English and Speaking 3".

You have to do all these activities, write the answers in a Word file and send it to me to the usual address javiprofeingles@hotmail.com.
Page 44: Study the yellow box at the top of the page and do those activities and then Activity A (parts 1, 2, 3). You don't need to write the questions, just the answers.
If you don't have the CD for the book, you can use this audio.

Page 46: Activity D (parts 1, 2)
If you don't have the CD for the book, you can use this audio.


Homework 2/10 is Internet based.

During the second term, we are going to work with English Central. It is a site where you can watch small videos, with or without the script and then you can listen and repeat what the video says and get a certain amount of points. First, I want you to register. You can do it here.



Write your real name, an email and a password. As usual, WRITE THE INFORMATION DOWN somewhere or REMEMBER IT so as not to forget it next time you have to work with it.
Once registered, try to get at least 3000 points (the more, the better)

If you can...

Try to listen to at least 30 minutes of English every day. You can watch videos, films, series, student news, listen to music, watch TV, etc., but try to listen to as much as you can.


Homework 3/10

New Year's Resolutions. This homework has three small parts.
Part 1. You must watch this small video about New Year Resolution and do the seven questions of this test . When you finish, print your screen with your result.



Part 2. You must listen to this audio and then fill in this chart with the information from the audio and send it to me (javiprofeingles@hotmail.com).


Part 3. You must record your voice telling me your New Year Resolutions and how you plan to put them in practice. You must talk between one and three minutes. You can use any of the systems you know to send me audio.

The last part is just for some of you.

If you still don't have the text book or headphones, ask Melchor, Gaspar and Baltasar for it.
If you haven't worked during the first term, January 1st is a good time to take the resolution to start working and doing your homework.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

VOCABULARY DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES 1-7

Hi students,

In order to practise for your exam next week, here you have some games with the summary of the vocabulary for Desperate Housewives 1-4.  I have reduced all the vocabulary to only 70 words to make it easier for you.




Here is the vocabulary for episodes 5-7 (I couldn't make everything in just one list.

BOOK VOCABULARY REVISION UNITS 1-3

Hi students,
In the next two Wednesdays you will have your oral exam and remember that one tiny part of the exam is vocabulary from the book (units 1-3) and from Desperate Housewives (episodes 1-7). If you want to revise for the exam in a funny way, you can do it here.
Since your teacher is poor and doesn't want to pay, you can only do the activities on the left column. Have fun and practise.


This is not homework. It is just optional practise for the exam.

Good luck.
Javier
