Good afternoon LINC 7,

This afternoon, we're going to practice some different types of listening.  The first tasks are 

IELTS listening tasks.  When you click on the link, you will notice that you have a choice for 

level of difficulty.  You should all be listening to the 'quick' version.  DO NOT use the 'slow' 

level of difficulty.

Try listening to some of these practice topics, and then, try the comprehension questions.

Next, go the following website, "BBC: 6 Minute English" and choose a podcast that interests 

you.  Once you've listened to it, write a brief summary of what you've heard.  Make sure to 

use your own words. Do not use direct quotes.  Also, don't forget to include the title of the 

podcast that you choose.  Your writing is due at the end of class.
