ECW. Week 10. May 4-9

DAY CLASS HOMEWORK ONLY:

Since we have missed so many classes due to holidays and exams, I urge you to carefully read all of Chapter 10, so that we can cover the material more quickly. Next week again you are missing 2 hours of teaching.
YOUR WRITTEN HOMEWORK
Write on a seperate peace of paper because you will have to submit your homework to me:
Pages 84 and 85.
Page 84. You have to provide three opinions on a controversial (disputed) topic and provide three logical arguments for each to defend your opinion. For example:
1. Opinion: Students should not have a part time job
Argument a) the pay is too low
Argument b) they don't have enough time to study
Argument c) they are to tired to concentrate on studying
Please, do not recycle opinions that you used in your exam. Come up with fresh thesis.
Page 85. Pick one of your opinions expressed on page 84 and write a proper short paragraph with a topic sentence, supporting arguments, signal words and conclusion sentence.
The "Pair activity" A.
Read the sentences and mark which ones support the idea that TV is good for children, which one don't. You can simply write like this: 1. + (+ means it supports the idea that TV is good).... 3. - (- means that TV is bad for children).
