SPEAKING
When you take a Cambridge exam, there's always a speaking test (15 minutes). So familiarise yourself with the speaking tasks and always try to answer the questions elaborately. Don't keep it short and sweet, but show what you can do with the language.
Now, go to page 8 and do exercise 1 together. Afterwards, go to the next page of this LessonUp to see what else you are expected to do this week.
