End of term activities

Dear all,

This are the instructions for the activities that are coming.

Last evaluations:

We are not having the socnd test and oral part. We are having oral presentation about recipes instead. These are the instructions:

- Prepare a report of the preparation of a menu, i.e., a beverage, a main course, and a desset. Print it and hand it in. This counts for the second written exam.
- Choose one of the meals and present it to your classmates. e

Example: Let's imagibe your are making a cake. Prepare the cake at home and make a short video of the preparation. It does not need to have audio. If you cannot make a video, you can even present a PPT with pictures of the stages of the preparation (ingredients, mixing, baking, etc.). In the class you will explain the steps of preparation. Finally, in the second hour, we are going to share a good time eating the diferent kinds of food you have prepared.


Some useful vocabulary for the recipes:

Hi,

here you have today's links. Did you remember to bring your own headphones? Well, try to borrow a pair for my class if you don't have any. The idea is to practice your listening and increase your vocabulary.
