Let's Argue: An Argumentative Text and Speaking Practice

Good afternoon, boys and girls! Because of the national speaking tests I can not be with you today, but I know that you will do just fine.

Today you are going to give and get peer response on your argumentative texts. As help for peer response, (and also for you to know whether you are finished with your text) use the checklist in this blog post. Click on the link to get to the checklist.

When you have improved your text and made sure that it is as good as it can get, you are going to share with me on jenny.svensson@halmstad.se

Then, you are going to practice speaking with your partner/s. To prepare, you can work with expressions from speaking cards on glosor.eu
Log in with username susles7812 and password hello 
Then work with the sets that are called "National test - Quesions and answers" and "National test cards"
You can also practice discussion expressions here: https://quizlet.com/234736994/discussion-words-flash-cards/ 

Together with your partner, discuss these "Betwen a Rock and a Hard Place" a.k.a "Would you rather...?" questions: https://www.kimstudies.com/between-a-rock-and-a-hard-place.html 

... and discuss any of these topics that appeal to you:  https://esldiscussions.com/
