C1 / Vocabulary Aspect: Money
In class or homework.
Choose any three terms from the vocab list (e.g. mortgage, instalment, lump sum, recession
etc). And write concise explanations to them as if you had to explain them to your 6-year-old
niece / your granny / your brother - quantum mechanic / disney princess of your choice / Jack
the Sparrow / your favourite celebrity / Donald Trump. You can incorporate your attitude into

B2 / Grammar Task Extension
Note: The group consists of male students oppressed by society not to express emotions ->
problems with expressing emotions -> the teacher tries to work on their emotional intelligence
surreptitiously.
Read out loud sentences from a grammar practice task but with an emotion that your teacher
assigns to you / you get from the jar with emotions / from wheeldecide.
Alternatively: Read out loud sentences from a grammar practice task but with an emotion that
you get from them.
The teacher praises all displays of emotions.
