UNIT 5_ WORK_LISTENING PRACTICE FOR HOMEWORK_WEDNESDAY 18/THURSDAY 19

Listen to these podcasts.

I think you could possibly work in small groups.

Each student belongs to a particular group.

You are committed to listening to ONE of them.

Next week, Wednesday 18/Thursday 19, you will have the chance to talk to each other about these podcasts. You can mingle and practise your English with classmates who have listened to a different podcast.

I hope you find them useful for your progress.

After all this process, make sure you listen to ALL OF THEM. I´m sure they will help you improve not only your listening skill, but also your reading, speaking and writing skills.
