Small talk: family

Hello, English Team,

Your homework for Wednesday's lesson is page 60 of the handouts book. Talking about your family is a good small-talk subject.

Before you come to the lesson, be sure you know these words:

acquaintance - divorced - married - mother-in-law - only child - relations - relatives - separated - single - step-son

This is one of my relatives!Guess how he is related to me!

Here are 5 names of people in my family. You can ask me about them in the lesson.

FRED - TED - ELEANOR - MARY - PAUL

You can bring in photos of your family, too, if you would like to.

I would like to collect ideas from you about future lessons. What would you like? Reading, Grammar, Speaking, Writing, Internet games, something else? If you have an interesting article for the group, please bring that too.

Attila has sent me a good article about John Lennon, and we will look at that on Wednesday. You can see it here, too. JOHN LENNON'S KILLER SAYS WHY HE DID IT

Finally, here is a really mini grammar lesson, which we will practice on Wednesday. It's about "should have done" and "should be"


Sincerely,
Mary
