January Week Two

Once again, we turned to David Bryne's fantastic website Reasons to be Cheerful.  Namely, we delved a list of 192 ways our world changed in a positive way in 2021 (despite it all!).  Check out the full list here.

Listening:
Learners can try their hand at an episode from 6 minute English from the BBC: The Human Library, or Changing the Earth's Climate.

For original version listening try an episode from the podcast To the Best of Our Knowledge, such as The Power of Pleasure and Joy, or In Search of 'Real' Food.

Reading:
Learners can try one of several articles from Words and their Stories from VOA English or an article from Breaking News English about how 2021 was better than 2022.

For original version,  check out the list of the year in cheer and click on one of the articles to learn more about a project that brought about positive change.

Writing:
This week for writing, please write an article about one of the changes you have discovered on the list of positive changes found here.  Why is this change important?

Best,
Kelly
