Oral English 2: Lesson 12

Hi everyone, 
​
We have finished our last group of debates, and all the requirements for our course. The last thing you have to do is hand in your vocabulary books next week. 

Debate Feedback:
Most of you did a great job with your debates. You've used a lot of the discussion and conversation skills we've learned during the entire course in your debates. 

The most important thing to remember when you communicate in English is to have confidence in your opinion. You don't need to use perfect grammar. How you communicate your message is more important (e.g. speaking clearly and loudly, making eye contact, using gestures, etc.). When you do this, others will pay attention to what you are saying and will want to communicate with you.

Homework:

1. Presentation Vocabulary: write down example sentences from today's debates.
2. My Vocabulary: write down 5 new words that you learn this week (e.g. in other classes, from watching TV/movies, etc.)
3. Opinion: In the homework section of your notebook, write your opinion on one of the topics from today's debates. You have to agree or disagree. These were the topics: (1) GM foods; (2) internet regulation; (3) death penalty; (4) same-sex marriage; and (5) grade skipping

I will collected your vocabulary books in next week's class for the last checking. Please remember to bring them.
