Homework:
In your next lesson you will be writing an opinion led essay in class time. This will be your written assessment for this term and is worth 25% of your final grade. You may use dictionaries and ask questions during the lesson but please come prepared with paper and stationery. Your topic is income inequality but I will give you your specific essay question in class. Please do some research by listening to the rest of the BBC Radio 4 podcast Should a banker be paid more than a nurse? and making some notes. You can find other resources if you like but you must listen to the podcast as this will help you the most.
