Intermediate and Advanced Reader News and the 16th of February Reminder
Hello everyone,
Due to the speaking exams taking longer that I imagined, we are going to postpone the 'reader' work until after Carnival week. In other words, please make sure you have finished the reader and done at least one of the 'After Reading' activities for your first class after Carnival Week. If there is anyone who has finished the activity and wants to hand it in to me next week, that is fine too!
IMPORTANT: A reminder to the Tuesday and Thursday Intermediate 1 groups that we do NOT have class on Thursday the 16th of February as we did speaking exams on Friday the 3rd of February instead.
