Today, TP7 received the grades on the Grammar/English in Use Tests.


We then proceeded to go through the PowerPoints regarding the upcoming oral exams, i.e. the Oxford Union-Style Debates.  These PowerPoints are entitled: 
  • Rules and Success Criteria for Oral Exam
  • Instructions for In-Class Debate Preparation
Students who missed today's class should go through these PowerPoints as soon as possible.

Next class:is a MANDATORY class.  Students will be choosing their motions, teams and dates for their debates - which are worth 30% of their grade!  This class is not to be missed.
