So far this semester (weeks one and two) the main points we've looked at are:
Cleft sentences
Formal writing
Academic writing
Essay plans
New technologies
Debating (for/against)
Reported speech
For week three you should:
Study (again) the units in your grammar book relating to modal verbs
Study the unit referring to reported speech (including doing the exercises)
Read and prepare the short story 'The Country of the Blind' (if you haven't already done so)
Finish (and hand in) the essays that you have been working on
Bring the new 'dispensa' to class
Important – please remember that the 'weekly summary' is a brief overview of only some of the main points covered in class and is not to be considered as a way of substituting coming to class. Please remember also that certain materials are covered in class, but you are also responsible for independent study in order to cover all areas of the course programme. Also don't forget that it is essential that you practise your English (reading, writing, speaking and listening) on a regular basis – outside of class as well as in class – in order to aim for good results.
