Intermedio 1- Homework for 17th November

Do you like writing? This time it's an informal e-mail, using the useful phrases that appear on this worksheet.
The reason for writing has to be related to food somehow: either you plan to have a celebration with friends, or you've enjoyed a meal with friends/family and tell the receiver of the email about it, or you've gone to a fantastic restaurant and want to recommend it...
Remember, the "excuse" is food/restaurants.
You can hand it in in class or send an email.

Intermedio 1. Homework for next week

We've finished unit 1, so, please do the activities in your workbook. If you have problems with the DVD, let me know. We've printed a copy and also made a DVD with the videos and a CD with the audios so that you can use them on any player and not only in your computer.

These are the copies I gave you in class today:
What makes a good language learner
Expressions with place and touch
Reading about Madonna

Your homework:

• Tuesday, 8th: the reading text about Madonna. Remember: first read the text and try to understand it, don't try to fill in the gaps. Do that the second time.
  If you feel like, read the text on page 15 in your classbook and do the reading and language focus exercises.
• Thursday, 10th: a writing of about 120 words making an attractive description of a person, real or imaginary so as to be the introduction for a social networking site.
• Tuesday 15th: Intermediate Language Practice, at the end of the book you have some units to learn new vocabulary. Do unit 10 which is about friends and family.

And finally, the answer to the "Brain teaser" is:

The married couples are:

Ingrid and Larry

Edward and Fanny

Helen and John

Alan and Karen

Gordon and Maggie

David and Barbara

Caroline and Nigel
