Walking, talking and breathing English
WEEK 12-16
We have finished our long and fun project People and Passion. Now we are spending two weeks warming up to the National tests in English.
The aim is to improve the students reading and listening/understanding skills and also to improve their strategies (for example "guessing competence" ) when reading and listening.
Homework for Friday week 13 (6:3 and 6:4) and Tuesday week 14 (6:1 och 6:2) : to spend at least one HOUR practising reading or listening to English on one of the web sites to the below. You are welcome to do the homework in school on Wednesday mornings before 10.00 or at "läxläsningen":
- On Readtheory.org you need your username and a password (passwords are the same in each group Reading61, Reading62, Reading63 or Reading64). If you have forgotten your username, contact Charlotta. (charlotta.wilson@stockholm.se)
- On Newsreel Easy you practise listening to English and afterwards take a quiz.
- Newsreel - News in more advanced English. Take a quiz after you have listened.
- News in levels. You can read news in different levels, and also watch a short clip about the piece of news. Good practise for reading and learning new words
