    Grab your phone, get out of the classroom and go and take a photo.

    Not just any old photo though, try and capture an image that is really interesting and that provokes a response from you and others!]]>     2017-09-07 10:23:55 UTC https://padlet.com/tutor_rob/week2and3/wish/185435018     Task 2 tutor_rob https://padlet.com/tutor_rob/week2and3/wish/185435575 This is complicated so read the following instructions carefully:

    Working as a whole group, we will make a definitive list of class expectations]]>     2017-09-08 10:02:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tutor_rob/week2and3/wish/185807035     "Here's what I think about English!" tutor_rob https://padlet.com/tutor_rob/week2and3/wish/185807220 Working in pairs (on your own if you really want to, I would like you to make make a very short video expressing your current attitude to studying English.

    To help you, here's some ideas on what you could talk about:
    • What do you think about having to do English/Maths
    • What issues did you have (if any) with English in the past?
    • What are your concerns about the sessions?
    • How can we help you to develop?
    • How would you use English on the course and in the future?

    No one else has to see the video. Just you, your partner and me.
