Students of 8th. level

Hi there How are you doing? I hope just fine. As we are about to finish the file nunber 5 I want you to do some activities to practice and consolidate what we have checked in class.

To begin with, as you have noticed, this book has a section called "mini grammar" but unfortunately, we don't have enough time to practice these exercises, so do the following activity on this topic. The link is the following:

As

http://www.oup.com/elt/global/products/englishfile/upperint/e_minigrammar/nef_upperint_minigrammar05/

Remember to print your score, and give it to me by Friday.

Colloquial English

The second activity is the following: It's very important for students of your level to get familiar with idioms, phrases and collocations used in everyday situations, so do this activity about colloquial English with the topic of Music Festivals.

http://www.oup.com/elt/global/products/englishfile/upperint/d_colloquial/nef_upperint_practicaleng05/

Finally, phrasal verbs are extremelly important for anyone who wants to be fluent in English, so this activity is to help you practice them in context.

Remember, the deadline for all the activities is this Friday. Good luck and take care.

Finally, as I know the topic about reflexive pronouns or each other was a bit difficult for you, I'd like you to do this exercise to revise what we saw in class. This is also by Friday.

Reflexive pronouns

See you and good luck. This time I also want you to drop a line on the blog to share whatever you want about this new way of working.

Take care!

DIDEPA STUDENTS

Hi there! How have you been all these days we haven't been in touch? I hope just fine. Sorry for not uploading activites before, but I had some problems with internet. Anyway, as we have been working with word formation I think it's important for you to remember the most common prefixes and suffixes and then practice with some activities. So, to begin with, click on the following link where you can find useful information about this topic.

PREFIXES AND SUFFIXES INFORMATION

http://teacher.scholastic.com/reading/bestpractices/vocabulary/pdf/prefixes_suffixes.pdf

If you want, you can print these pages to have the information with you. When you have finished go to the following link to do some excersices, remember to hand them out next Wednesday in class.

PREFIXES AND SUFFIXES ACTIVITIES

The link is this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/skillswise/words/spelling/wordbuilding/suffixes/worksheet.shtml

Do the worksheet 1 and the worksheet 2. Remember do not check the answers until you have finished, these worksheets have an answer sheet for you to check, so we don´t need to check the answers in class, unless you have a special question or doubt. This activity is to consolidate what we have seen in class.


PHRASAL VERBS

Then, the second activity is on phrasal verbs about work, because the following unit of the book is about this topic. So click on the following link, you'll find some phrasal verbs with their definitions and examples, once you have learned them, go to the end of the page and only do exercises 1 and 2, you don't have to do the excersice 3. When you finished, print your score and give it to me in class. Remember, this is a pre-activity to help you familiarize with the new vocabulary and it's important for you to do it. See you and have a nice weekend.

Anyway, let me tell you that I know that you have been used to doing things in a certain way and it might be difficult to get accustumed to working differently, but I would like you to give me the opportunity to show you another way to learn, work, teach and why not? even to have fun! So relax.



To begin with, I'd like you to go to the following link and do the next activities:

It's up to you to do the on-line version or the print one, but if you do the print version I want you to print just the score, I mean, once you have finished doing each activity save your screen with the key "Impr Pant" or "Print Screen" of your keyboard and save it on paint brush or word. Give it to me this Wednesday in class.
