REVISION DAY-Test tomorrow

Today we are going to revise for the test tomorrow.

First of all we are going to work with the words you have done on your word lists.

I want to remind you that the word lists are compulsory (mandatory) and you should hand in your lists of words WITH THE SENTENCES.

FAILURE TO DO SO WILL JEOPARDIZE YOUR GRADE

I want you to work with your neighbour.
1. Give him/her your word lists. Test each other to see if he/she stills remembers the words

2. Corrections
You will receive a document with the symbols I use when correcting your work. Here is a copy
