The 'Test'


The results are in! The good news is we don't have to do ALL of chapter 5... so here is my plan. I'm going to give you the exercises that will help us to get through this chapter! You won't need to do every exercise. Many of the exercises are LISTENING, so you can listen at home. Please read the ENTIRE e-mail. I will also post this on the Blog.



If you got a lot of questions wrong in Part B:

Look at charts 5.5, 5.6, 5.8, 5.9, and 5.10.

DO exercises 22, 25, 29, 34, 37, 39 at home. We will discuss and do the following in class: 
23, 26, 28, 33, 36  (in class)



If you got a lot of questions wrong in Part C:

Look at chart 5.15

DO exercises 56, 57, 59, 61, 63 at home. We will discuss and do the following in class:
58, 60, 62 (in class)



If you got a lot of questions wrong in Part D:

Look at charts 5.10, 5.11, 5.13, 5.14

DO exercise 43, 46, 47, 53, We will discuss and do the following in class:
51, 53, 54, 


Now, this isn't ALL for Wednesday, but we will be working on it a bit tomorrow- probably in two groups. Print this e-mail out or copy it down so you know what our plan is for this week! 


ALSO: if you do not understand a chart ask in class or e-mail me! We can also set up computers in CALL lab for you to practice questions and the present perfect tomorrow in CALL lab. Please e-mail me if you would like to work specifically on grammar tomorrow in CALL lab.
