CPE

Hi every one!

From now on, we’ll be working in a more autonomous way. I’ll assign some work, so as not to fall behind

with the exam preparation course, and, hopefully, you’ll complete it and check it for the first class back

from the quarantine.

We will finish the set corresponding to Unit 17 and, on your own, you will do Module 1 parts A and B

from Expert Proficiency Coursebook and Student’s Resource Book (I have included screen caps from the

first pages of the coursebook)

If that’s OK with you, we could schedule a day and time so we can connect over Skype and do some

speaking so as not to get rusty 😉. You can send me the required information to my mail

(missccultura@gmail.com) and we’ll organize a video conference, say on Thursdays at 7 p.m.

Don’t hesitate to contact me via email if need be.

Stay safe! Take care of yourselves, your loved ones and our community!

XO, Ceci

a) A couple of questions to get us thinking:

* How are the arts classified?

You can record your answer and send it to me via email or we can speak about it together should we
