Tip: planning is crucial: draft your learning weeks because time flies! (the time you can devote to what when) Then adjust as you go.
It is fundamental that you listen to English every day, as much as you can, but also that you exploit those audios to further your learning in terms of understanding, speaking, and improving your language range and grammar or accuracy. At the same time listening allows you to expand your world, learn about the world, and all that. My proposal is you work with two documentaries we have already worked on, as follow-up work, and that you combine this with a new documentary we will watch in class in January. So check out the 3 new pages above: Docus: SoS, Docus: BH, and Docus: RMB
Apart from this focused listening work, it’s always important to listen to the news (on the radio, or on screens), to radio program(me)s where you have interviews or panels of people discussing matters, and your course TV series, the one you are following. You could also learn the poem Wild Geese, or a poem! Even a story. I have some good ones on Literature on TP or the TP Podcast.
- Keep track of this work in your listening log.
- Listening work always involves speaking work because you should listen-n-repeat to your selections, or listen and retell with an outline.
About writing, well, if you didn’t hand in your December Writing Assignment (a formal letter, requesting sb’s release for human rights reasons), it’s OK because the deadline is January 9. Check out Writing File here.
About reading, you’ve got your book and over a month to read it. Check out Reading Projects. And this blog, of course! ❤
Last, I almost forgot, some particular language awareness work: you have the two collocations worksheets, in case you want to do them.
I hope this homework is interesting enough to get you going, to help you find time for your English! ❤
The pack in in our School!
