Obama Lessons

If you don't feel excited about the homework I've given you and would rather do more on our President-elect, here are a few sites for you to work on:

You can listen to/ read this text in US English. Perhaps only listen and take notes using the wh- questions. Make a gap fill or write questions and send it to someone else from the class to complete.
Pick out interesting vocabulary, analyse the use of tenses in the text. Maybe you also have good ideas. Leave them as comment if you do.

This is an interactive activity testing your ability to predict what comes next in a sentence and to help you with your syntax.

I really like this one: Five lessons Barack Obama can teach you

Finally, here are the two videos I'm planning to show you in class if all goes well. And if it doesn't, well, you can watch them here.
