Hello Level 5A,

Here is a link to the Voice of America. This is an excellent website to develop your listening and reading skills.  It really can help you increase your vocabulary and work on your pronunciation skills.

http://learningenglish.voanews.com/section/level-two/3935.html

Today, your lesson is to go to the website and choose 1 or 2 stories (as time allows) to read and listen to. Then, complete this format on a separate piece of paper:

Website name:

Title of article/reading:

Author/Writer: (- found at the beginning or end of the article)

Summary: (Write a short paragraph with the key points/main idea of the story.)

Observation: (Your opinion of the article, what did you learn, what do you think of the information presented?)

Key Vocabulary: (Choose at least 3 vocabulary words that are new to you and find their definition.)

Be prepared to report-out to the class on one article on Monday and Tuesday.

Happy Thursday!
Bonnie
Why this picture of a praying mantis? Because it is unique and interesting, and inspires me to learn as there is so much I don't know about nature. Life is one long lesson. Learn to be inspired.
