May 12th

I hope that everyone had a great weekend. It was really great to see all of you in class last Saturday!

Remember to ask follow-up questions whenever possible and make sure that that you ask comprehension and clarification questions when you do not completely understand something.

Level 1- For homework, could you please preview the "Asking the Same Question" questions on page 69 and 70. Next class, you will be using these questions to interview each other. We will also be doing the "Giving Additional Information" section in your textbook.

Level 2- For homework, could you please think of:

1. Expressions that are often used on the telephone
2. Ways to ask somebody for a date (invite someone to do something)
3. Ways to accept and refuse an invitation  

You can find these questions on page 11 in the "Telephoning a Friend" section.

Level 3- In next week's lesson, we will also be doing the "Telephoning a Friend" section on page 11. Please think of:

1. Expressions that are often used on the telephone
2. Ways to ask somebody for a date (invite someone to do something)
3. Ways to accept and refuse an invitation.

Level 4- You did a great job with both of the listening activities in unit 1. I know that some of you found it a little difficult, but don't be discouraged in the least little bit because the listening in this textbook is very authentic and spoken at "native English speaker speed."

For homework, could you please do the discussion questions in part A on page 23.

I am really looking forward to seeing you all again really soon!
