Parent-teacher meetings! Portal! Last class this week!

Hi everyone!

First, just a reminder that NEXT week, on 16 December for Friday classes and 17 December for Saturday classes, there will be parent-teacher meetings at the times I told you. If you have not already done so, remember to check with your parents at around what time they would like to come so we can book them in next class. 

Two point about  the Portal. 
1. If you are now able to access the portal, you are advised to change your password to something more secure than the standard password and something you will remember! 
2. Students who could not access the portal: I passed on the names of everyone who could not access the portal to the responsible senior teacher. They were able to access everyone's account with the student number and standard password. If you are one of those students, please check again - make sure you're using the right number! If not, we'll try to sort it out in class this week. 

Finally, here's a really cool website with short audio recordings to help you practise your listening skills and build your vocabulary at advanced level. Do take a look! http://bit.ly/2hbbwXr

See you in class! 

BSC1A-17F and BSC1A-9S

Next class there is a small test on Unit 9!
- Finish the review questions on page 97.
- Look at exercise 5 page 94. It's a pair-work activity, but it doesn't work very well as pair work. Look at both Student A's and Student B's parts and match the halves of the sentences and we'll check in class.
- The vocabulary and grammar activities from the Exam Maximiser will help you prepare.

Full notes on the rest of the class with links to the video clips are on the portal! DO make sure you can log on to the Portal so that we know who is having problems.
