To my B1 group,

We have our own blog!  I know, you're thrilled! (Thrilled is an adjective that means excited.)
Here is where I will post things you must do for English class, usually listening, or writing activities.  This will make it easier for me to give you links, and also for me to write down writing assignments.

It has come to my attention that we need to work more on writing and listening.  Reading is already super easy for you as a group.  Let's start doing work with some interesting TV programmes and writing assignments!

Your first assignment is this:
Due Monday, 13 February.

1) Please watch the link HERE.  Write down all of the expressions you hear, and try to think of a sentence where you might use the sentence.

2) We're going to start listening to 6 minute radio.  We're going to listen 3 - 4 times a week.
We're going to do it with the British accent so you get used to hearing it.  CLICK ME.

Please look at all of the information below the listening.  There are words that you will need to know for the listening.  Look at them first so that when you hear them, you understand.

Also, you'll have to give me the answer to the question in class, so be prepared!!!


The South China Mall in China is the world's largest shopping centre. But how many shops does it have? Is it:
a) 800
b) 1,200
c) 1,500

3) WRITING!! :) 
Your grandparents want to buy you a birthday present and have asked what
you want. Write a letter to your grandparents telling them about a camera
you have seen and giving reasons why you want it. Ask what they think about
your idea.
Remember, in the letter you must write about the camera, give them reasons you want it, and ask what they think!


See you all on Monday!  Have fun with the listening and writing!
