As I told you in class, here's a link to a zip file enclosing a module 6 model exam (module 6 RB), the answer key to all the activities in the test for self-correction(module 6 RBs) and the corresponding audio file. Hope this helps!

AVISO IMPORTANTE

Este aviso va dirigido a los alumnos de 3ºA de nivel intermedio de That's English (grupo del miércoles). Tal y como hemos acordado en clase hoy, el próximo miércoles 25 de noviembre no habrá clase por ser festividad local. La sesión de ese día se pasa al siguiente miércoles día 2 de diciembre, día en el que haremos sesión doble de 17:00 a 19:00 en el aula 1007 y cubriremos las unidades 6 y 8.

Aprovecho para comunicaros que la última semana lectiva de este trimestre es la que va del 7 al 13 de diciembre, por lo que, como quedarían aún dos unidades por ver, seguramente el miércoles 9 deberemos repetir la operación (es decir, doblar sesión).

Por último, también os anuncio que la fecha (aún provisional) del examen de módulo 6 es el miércoles, 13 de enero de 2016 a las 17:00 horas en el salón de actos del IES Jabalcuz.

Unit 4 recording

As you required, here's a link to the recording (unit 4) we were using in class last week. I'm afraid I couldn't find the script for the interview (sorry about that).

As for the writing topics for unit 4, here they are: Activities 8 and 9 (page 47); activity 8 (page 48).

See you next week!

New That's English year. Unit 1 - Getting better

Hi everybody and welcome to That's English 2015-16!

The blog has reopened for B1 That's English students in EOI Jaén. As we did last year, we'll be uploading every week's listening tasks and talking points to the blog so you can have a look at them before class. Besides, the site is intended to help you with your English tasks by providing extra materials, tips or links to online open resources that may come in handy to improve spoken or written skills, to review grammar points or to strengthen vocabulary.

You might also find it useful to check That's English official website where you'll be able to access the online learning platform by clicking on the small key symbol on the top right corner, as shown in the picture below

The platform includes plenty of resources and tools to help you in your learning process. You'll need a password to enter the site so, if you haven't got it yet please contact Secretaría EOI Jaén - 953276052.

I would also like to remind you of the units that will be left out for each module:

Module 6:   2, 3 and 7

Module 7:   1, 4 and 10

Module 8:   4, 5 and 9

An finally here's the link to Unit 1 handout, which we'll be dealing with in class next week:
