Gooooooooood Moorning UpperIntermediates,

Yesterday we did lot of listening (exercise n.5 on page 37 and n.7 on page 38),
learned some new words (exercise n.1,2 on page 37)
and how to use articles in the grammar box on page 38 (with related exercise n.11 on page 38).
In the end, everyone took turn to talk about a topic of exercise 12.

NO HOMEWORK AT ALL

Fabio tried to convince us that he has been in Bologna last week end....don't believe him!

IMPORTANT MESSAGE:
What do you think about having a pizza all together before Xmas?

Gooooooooood Mooorning UpperIntermediates!

Please welcome: The Pink Corner!
Let's copy the way famous women use to make men fall in love.
One quote will accompany every homework communication in order to reduce the panic and increase the probability to become a very very "english speaking lady".

And then:no:,
thanks to Fabio and the clever Federica, that's homework for next lesson :

Student’s book
1. read page 28
2. Compose one sentence for each adjective of page 29
Workbook
1. Page 15 n 2 and 3
2. Page 17 (only if you have time.... )
3. Page 18 everything

Summary of the previous lesson:

Per quanto riguarda ciò che abbiamo fatto, trattasi di pagine 29 (tutti gli esercizi) e 30.
In poche parole, bisogna studiare quasi a memoria l’uso delle prepositions (-> Key vocabulary di pag. 31).

Altra cosa, io, Piergiorgio e Donatella siamo stati intervistati da Valeria, Federica e Cristina, cercando di farci accettare al corso per infermieri (-> annuncio di pagina 146). Per la cronaca, è stata scelta Donatella (ma non è stata una selezione “politically correct”…)

Fabio's Surving kit:

1. To be keen – Essere appassionato di…
2. To apply for – fare domanda (di lavoro)
3. Here You are ! – Eccoti qua ! oppure Ecco ! A seconda che si tratti di persona o di oggetto che ci viene dato
4. Let’s move on (to the next topic) – Procediamo (col prossimo argomento)
5. Get a move on ! – Muoviti !
6. I’d get a lot out of it – Ne trarrò qualche vantaggio
7. Short term project
8. Long term project
9. To be anal about something – essere pignolo relativamente a qualcosa

And at last....

(homework's always singular)

1. read chapter 2 of "the panthom bla bla..."
2. Workbook, page 13, exercises number 3 and 4

Pat

Tracy died soon after a long fought civil war,
just after I'd wiped away his last tear
I guess he's better off than he was before,
A whole lot better off than the fools he left here
I used 2 cry 4 Tracy because he was my only friend
Those kind of cars don't pass u every day
I used 2 cry 4 Tracy because I wanted to see him again,
But sometimes sometimes life ain't always the way...

Sometimes it snows in April
Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish life was never ending,
and all good things, they say, never last
