January Week Three

First off, I want to thank you guys for your flexibility this week adapting to the new classes online!  For those who have decided to take a break this month, feel free to keep up with the emails and send me homework.

I also wanted to let you know, that this weekend I am going to organize an extra activity online for those who are bored at home!  On Sunday January 31st at 18:30 we will connect to Happy Hour Trivia Night. If you would like to connect, just let me know!

Now, on to the homework.  This week we focused on pronunciation, specifically practicing the different pronunciations of the letter S, particularly in plurals and third person verbs.

Listening:
Learners can try a B1 level listening exercise called My Favorite Things from The British Council.

For original version listening, check out any of the many videos on Amoeba's youtube channel featuring What's In My Bag?

Reading:
Learners
 can try a reading activity from British Council (page 2 of this PDF). Can you find the instances where the letter S is pronounced /z/?

For original version, check out one of the many articles from The Verge's series What's in Your Bag? such as
  • What’s in your bag, Anne-Marie? Scrunchies. A lot of scrunchies.
  • What’s in your bag, Marlon James? Pens, paper, and turmeric tea
Writing:
This week, please describe the articles you have in your bag, your fridge, or your trunk.  The trick, though, is to be descriptive and also to explain the personal significance of some of these items for you!

Best,
Kelly
