After today's idioms "beat to the draw/punch" and "to be a big fish/frog in a small pond" we worked with preparations for tomorrow's presentations.

19/10

More summary work. Also, we talked about a few idioms, to "be on target" and to "beat the band" and I gave you a few tips on English pronunciation (watch your i's, t's and d's!).

The comments to your speaking tests can now be found in your grading documents in Google Drive.

Today we started the US election theme... Those not present are divided into groups as follows:

Team Romney
Ellen
Jonatan

Team Obama
Sofia

We talked about what you already new about the candidates ("Who Are the Candidates"-handout), then we watched a few clips about the US form of government (see links in "US election theme part 1 instructions"). Also, we worked with the "Candidate Research Team Handout" (these will be the basis of your presentations week 43).
