C1A - weekly summary

Some of the main points that we've been looking at in class this week have been:

- past and present diagnostic tests from your grammar books
- reading comprehension and conversation about the history of the short story
- cleft sentences

As you have probably noticed, we're mixing easier points with more difficult points in our lessons - that way revising old points and introducing new ones. In fact from reading your written work I can see that you know lots, but also that several of you need to 'dust off' some of the simpler aspects of English too (verb tenses in particular). When we get to a high level it's easy to focus on learning new and difficult things and forget about the 'easier' things we've already studied in the past. Try to keep revising older material so that it stays nice and healthy.

For next Thursday's lesson please try to finish reading the short story I mentioned in class:
1st years - 'The Landlady'
2nd years - 'The Signalman' (and try to do the exercises too)

Have a good weekend, see you next week.
