IMPORTANT​: Valoraré que les frases siguin vostres, senzilles i curtes, i penalitzaré en gran mesura frases molt elaborades sabent que estan tretes del traductor o google. No valoraré la vostra lectura en veu alta sinó la capacitat que teniu per xerrar en anglès una estoneta. Ja sabeu que conec el vostre nivell i a cada un/a vos exigiré el que podeu, segons el vostre nivell. Vos avaluaré amb una rúbrica (que alguns de vosaltres heu ajudat a fer-la), com que he de tenir moltes coses en compte ho enregistraré amb l’Ipad per poder tornar a escoltar-ho i per fer una revisió de nota si no estau conformes) Preparau-ho bé, practicau a casa i anirà bé!

and soon...
