A new week.

Hope you had a great weekend.
Today we started implementing the "yellow card" and "red card" system. Fortunately, nobody got a red card, but I gave 4 yellow ones.
Pease don't consider cards as punishment... THEY ARE NOT!!!! They're just a way of motivating and pushing you into showing the English speaking person that dwells inside you.

If you missed the class, here you'll find the handouts.
The'll also be at Picachu photocopy center in case you can't print them.

Today's handout (pre-reading activities): http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dgmvk7jn_6htmdcp

Homework: http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dgmvk7jn_5fwbn35

Any questions??, feel free to post a comment.

See you tomorrow, same time, B3.
