Hi guys,
today we first started the lesson with a quick viewing of a video about obesity and you had to react about it as if it were a document for your oral exam.
Pascal volunteered after a long period of silence... too bad for you that you don't want to practise; don't you dare tell me that you have done everything you could
and that you don't understand your final grade...
Here is the quick correction that I wrote for you on the board as Pascal was speaking and developing his ideas.
Then we started the last oral activity of the year with a worksheet about global warming (pronunciation, causes and consequences). Thanks to Mrs Menenteau
for sharing this great document.
HW:
- Finir la fiche de travail (prononciation, causes, consequences).
- pour ceux qui étaient absents vendredi dernier et pour ceux dont les enregistrements n'ont pas été faits correctement, vous DEVEZ m'envoyer une nouvelle
production [oral sur l'image choisie] par internet avant la fin de la 1ère semaine des vacances.
- Pour la rentrée, vous avez à rédiger l'argumentation (essay) en vous aidant des deux fiches distribuées ("Write On" et "Link Words").
- Révisez votre méthode, votre vocabulaire, et entraînez-vous à parler sur les thèmes que nous avons abordés cette année et qui sont susceptibles de tomber pour
votre examen oral (Mercredi 16 mai si mes informations sont exactes; vous aurez une convocation à la rentrée). Vous pouvez vous enregistrez et m'envoyer votre fichier
son pour que je vous donne des conseils de dernière minute si vous le souhaitez. Voici quelques uns des thèmes possibles:
- The Internet & Social Networks (Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, ... = dangers and benefits).
