How are you doing dear students? How was your weekend? busy?, tiring? or exciting? Anyway, let's start working. As you told me a long time ago, listening is one of your major concerns, so here you have another activity about sentence stress and rhythm that has a lot to do with the topics we will be checking in class. Go to the following link, read and listen to the information and do the exercise you will find almost at the end, it has 3 sentences you have to read these sentences and record  them using your voice with your cell phone or whatever you want, but you also have to include the following 3 sentences you have below:

 

1. They're studying harder to get better grades.

2. Do you think you'll be able to repair them soon?

3. What time did Mandy say she was coming?

 

Send you voice recording to my mail, or in dropbox or take it to class by this Wednesday, this time you can transfer your files with a mini  Multi in one Memory Card Reader that I have, so don't worry, this time it will be easier.

Hi there! How are you, I hope just fine. As you have told me, pronunciation and listening are two of your major issues regarding English learning, so I found a very useful website that has "podcasts" a podcast is a recording, is an audio for many different purposes, on this occasion I chose one site that has excellent practice on two important aspects: linking words and the pronuciation of the sound "schwa". Listen to the the three podcasts, the first is about linking pairs of words, and the other two are about the pronuciation of  the  "schwa" sound, schwa words and schwa sentences. Listen to them as many times as you need and then record using your own voice, two or three pairs of words which appear only on the first podcast , it's up to you which pairs of words to record. You can record  your voice with your cell phone or with any other electronic appliance, but you have to take this recording to class this Friday.

 

Extra pronunciation and listening practice

 

See you and take care!
