I have checked with the Course Director that it is OK for us to continue using English File 4 this term. Please bring your textbook along to class with you next Thursday and we will start work on Unit 5.
Make sure you have a copy of the course book - Language Leader Advanced by next lesson.
Vocabulary: 8 new words for next week - see the link above on what you can do to remember them. Remember you need to use the word at least 8 times for it to become part of your active vocabulary.
Start up your self study folder, notebook or blog.
Sentencing: Have a look at this website from the U.K. See how your sentence compares with the actual sentence passed. http://ybtj.cjsonline.gov.uk

Error Correction:
Be careful of "false friends" e.g. 'society' instead of 'company', 'concurrence' instead of 'competition'.
Homework:
Choose 8 new words to learn for this week - remember you need to do 8 things with these words to make them part of your active vocabulary (write an example sentence, note the spelling, pronunciation and collocations)
