FINAL EXAM INFORMATION!!!

Hi Everyone,

Yesterday afternoon I was given the exam information, which I´ll put here.  READ CAREFULLY!

May 12-23:  this is the sign-up period for ALL 3 PARTS OF THE EXAM (writing, computer, oral)

Written Exam:  May 30, from 15:00 to 16:30.

Oral Exam:  June 5 & 6.  Check for the times offered.

Computer Exam:  June 2 to 12.  Check the times offered.

If somebody can´t take the exam on the days scheduled, they MUST request a change of date.  To do this, either go to Secretaría and fill out a request form, or send an e-mail to:  s.llengues.info@uab.cat  Do this as soon as possible.

All of this information can be found on the website of the Servei de Llengües.  Go to the SdL webpage, then go to the Destacats column and click on Certificats i Exámens.  All of the information you need is there.

See you in class.

C.A. 2 Information

Hi Everyone,

Please remember the following information:

First day back for Mon-Wed group:  23.04
First day back for Tues-Th group:  22.04

The C.A. oral will be on May 5 (Mon-Wed group) and May 6 (Tues-Th group).  DON´T FORGET THIS!

You must have a partner for the oral!!  There is nothing for you to prepare.  I´ll have everything prepared.  When you are not doing the oral, you will be in the Aula d´Informática doing individual work on the grammar, vocabulary and listening that you´ve been having difficulties with this year.  Look at your compositions, grammar and vocabulary exercises and workbook to identify exactly what you need to work on.

The C.A. of grammar-vocabulary and listening will be on May 7 (Mon-Wed group) and May 8 (Tues-Th group).

Have a wonderful Spring Break!

WORKBOOK, UNITS 3 & 4

Hi Everyone,

Here are the dates to give me your workbooks, Units 3 & 4:

Monday & Wednesday group:  Wednesday April 23rd
Tuesday & Thursday group:  Thursday April 24th.

Remember:

1.  Do all of the exercises EXCEPT FOR THE PRONUNCIATION ONES.  You may do them if you wish, but I won´t look at them.  DON´T BE LATE!!  Remember, you must give me your book report the first week back from Semana Santa, so don´t wait to do this work.

2.  CHECK YOUR ANSWERS BEFORE YOU GIVE ME YOUR WORKBOOK!!  I need to immediately see if there are any general problems, and I can´t do that if I have to check your answers myself.

Thanks.  Have a good weekend.

Pronunciation Practice!!

Hi Everyone,

Here are two websites for pronunciation practice.  Not all words are available, but all sounds are there.

wordreference.com -- This website has BOTH British and American pronunciations.  Choose one to use, but recognize both.

howjsay.com -- This site is only with British pronunciation, as far as I know.  It´s also valid.

Try these, AT HOME, and if there is any problem with a particular sound, ask me and I can help you out.

Thanks,

Chuck
