I hope you are having a good time with no lessons and exams to worry about.
Here's your homework for Christmas. The deadline is Wednesdays 11th 2011, so you have over 15 days to work on it. Try not to leave everything for the last moment.
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: Activity A (parts 1, 2, 3). You don't need to write the questions, just the answers.
Page 46: Activity D (parts 1, 2)
Look all the expressions about unit 9 (page 81) up in a dictionary or on the Internet and write the translation for each one of them.
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 2500 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
Go to CNN student news, choose any day from January 3rd to January 9th and record a summary of the news for that day. Then, send me your audio file to my usual address,
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.
Happy New Year to you all.
Javier
