Homework 

• Homework will be found on Magister (every Friday for the whole next week, but not this Friday)
• Make sure that you study/prepare the exercises 
• I will check your homework every Friday and I will do a little test to check if you know your words/grammar 
• No homework yet as I do not have the correct books 

Speaking game: who am I?

• One student needs to sit in front of the class and secretly writes down a famous person.
• All the teams in the class need to ask questions.
• The student in front of the class can only answer with yes or no. 
• The goal: try to find out as a class who this famous person is. 

Speaking game: pick one question: 

• Would you rather be really big or really small?
• Homework should be banned. Agree or disagree?
• Would you rather have a superpower of your own choice or a have your favourite song play everytime you walk into a room?

• Kids are smarter than grown-ups. Agree or disagree?
• Should teachers have to wear a school uniform?
• Is it better to be rich with no friends or poor with many friends?

Flashforward 

Next week: 

• Bring your books + reading book + Ipad and charger + notebook/pen 
• Homework: Check if you can see my messages on Magister and make sure to prepare one statement on a piece of paper in English that you would like to discuss with the class. We will use these in the upcoming weeks.
