Hi there!
As you already know I am correcting national tests today. Hampus is in charge of your English class.

1. What's Up 7 textbook. It is on the teacher's desk in your classroom. (Around 30 min.)

Read texts and answer questions.
- Find the first text you didn't read last semester and answer "Did you get it?"
- Open a new document and share it with me. Write down your answers in that document.

When you are done with one text, find the next text to read. And so on.

2. ReadTheory | ReadTheory (Around 30 min.)
Sign in with Google
Do as many exercises as possible. This website will adapt the questions to your level.
- If you get a lot of answers right, the level will get higher.
- If you get a lot of answers wrong, the level will get lower.

All the best,
Susanna

Hi there!
Good job with the Matilda test last Thursday. I will correct it as soon as I can.

1. Before we move on, I need an evaluation of the Matilda project: https://forms.gle/wSGmgTp9Q1ErA4sQ7

2. You have already practised listening a lot on YouTube during the Matilda project. Now you are going to move on to listening comprehension practice: Listening | LearnEnglish Teens (britishcouncil.org)

Today we will try exercises on different levels, to see which level you are on.
You are supposed to practise on a level that is difficult for you, but not too complicated.

Tomorrow I will correct national tests, so Hampus will be in charge of your English class.
You will then work on reading comprehension instead.

All the best,
Susanna

Real love

1. Listen and read

Listen to the text "Real Love" from What's Up 9 and read along with it: Sanoma Utbildning : Övningsmästaren (ovningsmastaren.se)

2. Did you get it?

How old was Dustin when he met Mandy?
What is in Mandy's own opinion her biggest failing [weakness, problem]?
What was the terrible lie that Mandy told Dustin when she broke up with him?

3. Talk about it

Some people think that teenagers can't be in love or they don't know what real love is. What can you say to prove them wrong?

Do you think that Dustin was the 'right one' for Mandy? Why/why not?

Do you think Mandy did the right thing to dump Dustin? Why/why not?

Why do you think Brie acted the way she did?

What advice would you give to Mandy in this situation?
