Lesson 5: Famous Places


This lesson was based on some reading passages about famous places. They were primarily written in the passive voice, which we then studied.
We also spoke about international certification for English. Suor Orsola does not have a testing center, but here is a link to another place where you can take the exam at a good price! PET/FCE/ESOL CERTIFICATION

In addition to that news, I would like to call your attention to a program sponsored by UNESCO - they are looking for students just like you to participate in a Masters Program in Turin about World Heritage at Work. Click on it and check it out!

What is your assignment this week? Write about a famous landmark that is near your hometown, a try to use the passive voice a few times in your writing. I look forward to reading your work, as always!
