APLE HOMEWORK 7/10. Deadline November 6th

This week, the idea is to prove how well you can read. You have to go to this site, choose the story whose number corresponds the one you have in my list, read and listen to the text as many times as you need and then read the text aloud recording it on this voicethread or with the recording system you prefer. You can try as many times as you want. When you are satisfied with the result, save it. If you do not remember your number in my list, choose any number from 20 to 40.
Enjoy your long weekend.

APLE HOMEWORK 6/10. Deadline Wednesday October 30th.

Hello students,
Here is the task you have to do for this week. Last week most people left it for the very last moment. Try to do it during the weekend, just in case you have technical problems later.
You have to go to this site, choose one of the stories (one which is complete, not in parts) and listen to it at least a couple of times WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE SCRIPT. You can either download the .mp3 file or listen to it directly on the page. Then, you can listen to it again with the script to understand it better. Your task is to record a summary of the story IN YOUR OWN WORDS and in less than three minutes. You can also say if you liked the story and if you found it easy or difficult to understand.

You can do it in this voicethread or use the send voicemail on the right of the blog. Try to change your icon/avatar in voicethread and use a picture or something more personal and original.



Good luck and enjoy your weekend.

APLE COMPUTER ROOM OCTOBER 21ST AND 28TH

20 minutes: practise listening about restaurants (unit 2 in the text book). Go to these pages for that:

http://esl.about.com/library/listening/blrestorder.htm

http://www.esl-lab.com/pie1/pierd1.htm

http://www.inglesmundial.com/B7/listening.htm

http://www.esl-lab.com/fastfood/fastfoodrd1.htm

http://www.elllo.org/english/0501/512-Akane-Restaurant.html (Hide the text and then do the multimedia Quiz Game)



10 minutes > watch this video and answer the following questions about it as a comment to this post


1.- What did he write? Why?
2.- What kind of restaurant is it?
3.- What happened with the wine?
4.- Did he like the food?
5.- What did he do with the food?
6.- What happened at the end?

20 minutes: Some people in the class love music. Let's see how good you are at lyrics.

We are going to listen to songs and fill in the blanks of the lyrics. Go here, create a new account (on the right, above the picture and under sign in), choose the song "The lazy song", choose a mode (you can start with elementary and then try something more challenging). Then, listen to the song and try to fill in the blanks.
Now it is your time to choose a different song of your taste. Write a comment saying which song you worked on and what was your score. Was it too easy/difficult? Don't forget to include your name in the comment.

A very funny, interesting lesson. I hope you enjoy it.
Javier

APLE HOMEWORK 5/10. Deadline Wednesday October 23rd

This is your homework for this week. You must go to this page from CNN and listen to the news for a particular day this week or last week. Try to watch the video at least twice and then, if you don't understand everything, listen to it again reading the transcript. After that, go to this voicethread and record in one or two minutes a summary of the pieces of news you have listened to. Don't forget to say which day you are referring to. You can also do it with the "Send voicemail" option as usual.
If you listen to this piece of news every day (it may take you about 10 minutes) your oral English will improve a lot and you will be informed at the same time. So, add it to your favorites. This is extremely useful for the people who didn't do too well in the mock listening exam.

APLE HOMEWORK 4/10. Deadline October 16th

This week we played a game of Trivial, activity I think you really enjoyed so I think it would be interesting if you wrote some questions and answers for the game. Apart from English, there are 4 other categories:

1.- History and Geography

2.- Cinema and Sports

3.- Art and literature

4.- Science

I want you to send me an email to my usual address  javiprofeingles@hotmail.com with AT LEAST 16 QUESTIONS, (4 for each category). Don't forget to write the answer (or the possible options with the correct one) and to include your name. Try to use Times New Roman. Size 12.

This week your assignment is shorter and maybe more interesting than last week. If you are a boy, you will probably like football, and if you are a girl, you will probably love David Beckham, so here is a video about his retirement.

You have to watch this video and then do the test with questions you can find on the left of the video. Once you have finished answering the questions, click on "See how you did, check your score and at the end of the score you will see:

Send these results to my teacher. 

My Name:
Teacher Code:
Assignment:	syoneda: David Beckham Retires!
Write your full name and in teacher code write  jarroyo. That way I will be able to see what you did and how you did it. Good luck. Javier
