Spetsengelskan 11/1

Av Annelie - 11 januari 2012 14:30

This week we read the first chapter in "Portable Ghosts", and we discussed what the chapter is about.


                                       

Now I want you to choose at least five different words from the text and then I want you to explain what they mean, in English! You could look them up in a dictionary first.

If you don't want to start your own blog, you can write to me here (kommentera)   


Until next time I want you to read chapter two.


Look for at least five difficult words that you explain, in your blog or in mine, in English of course. If you don't find any difficult words, you can take words that you think are hard to spell or pronounce.


We will discuss the chapter in class on wednesday.
