Hi guys,
Class one:
Today we are focusing on word formation, which is part 3 of the use of English exam. In pairs, students created their own exam task based on two C1 level texts and answered their partner’s questions (this was based on the game Madlibs). For those who were not in class, these texts can be found on the following web pages:

Homework: Please complete pages 17-19 and correct these exercises at home. If you have any doubts, don’t hesitate to ask me in the next class.
Secondly, complete the exam task on page 20- we will mark this together in class.
Homeowrk: please complete question 2 on page 187 (the proposal). Remember to use headings for each main point!!
Class two:
We worked through pages 24 and 25, which relate to part 5 of the Reading and Use of English. Specifically it concerns understanding difficult words from the context. This was in preparation of the exam task on pages 26-28. Then we discussed where new words come from and how this come about, and watched this TedEd video:
