Again a terrific lesson!
We started with a linking words exercise, which proved to be more difficult than planned. Anyway the students were great!
Of course I had made a written wordtest for them. It took some time but the class worked hard and I could see that most of them had actually done their homework.
When that was done we corrected the handout about the swenglish expressions and then I gave them two different reading comprehensions, one from högskoleprovet and one from a CAE test. I also informed about the Cambridge certificates and in addition I handed out information from Folkuniversitetet about the tests. (Se länklistan Cambridgeexamina)
Unfortunately there was no news spotlight today as on of the group members were ill but the others promissed to give the news on Monday next week instead.
Exercise Linking words:
Make a story
Work in pairs and link the following sentences, in any order you like, in order to get a two or three sentence paragraph. Use the linking words from your handout!
• Now that you have practised linking words you should be able to use them in a text of your own. As we have not met before I would very much like to know who you are.
• Make a written presentation of yourself in two different ways.
• The first one should be more informal and written to someone your own age that you do not know yet.
• The other presentation should be written in a more formal style. You could imagine that it could be sent to your future employer or maybe to the president of the United States or the Queen of England.
• Remember to use as many of the linking words above as possible.
• You may use a computer, if you have one or you can use handwriting. But remember to make your presentations as attractive as possible.
