Wednesday's Assignment

Who's responsible when there's a leak in your apartment? Or when the light bulb is blown? 
Or the fuse? Or the toilet stopped up? Who pays? Discuss these with a partner.
Ever needed something quick? How quick was the service you got from the landlord or super?

Here are your tasks:
  1. Listening and vocabulary: Housing Complaints
    1. Go through the lesson, and take the quiz.
    2. Make sentences with the expressions you just learnt, and check them with a partner.
  2. Role play: Calling the Landlord to Report a Leak
    1. As usual, practise aloud by yourself and then with a partner.
    2. Record your conversation with your partner, and do it again using the "jumping/pinball" exercise.
    3. Publish your audio chirbits to your e-portfolios.
  3. In preparation for Remembrance Day, listen to and practise singing this song.
