Massor av uppgifter till engelska boken.

Här kommer massa uppgifter James lagt upp på fronter om det är någon som missat det. James kan då inte ens låta bli att ge oss läxor under praktiken ens!

Curious exercises to do!
Skrivet av: James Harding

Hi!
Hope work experience is going well.
Here are some exercises I want you to have at least started before the next lesson (Tuesday week 6). Should be something for everyone - reading comprehension questions for the first and second half of the book, depending how far you´ve got. Look at the vocabulary exercise too. We´ll go through some of these on Tuesday.
To get to the exercises, click on "uppgifter" and then the folder.
Have fun!
James
