June 30th lesson

Dear students,
Thank you for your contributions in class and to the blog.
We didn't have time to discuss what we will do today, but there is not much time. One lesson will be your final test, and you will also need to hand in your listening portfolios soon.
Today, you will either start a new topic from the textbook, or another TED talks, or if you prefer, you could watch a movie and write a summary and reaction to it. If you bring a DVD which you think is suitable to watch and listen to in English, please do.
Kind regards,
Chris Elvin
