Morning's assignment:



There's been a change of plans, folks.

Instead of our regular assignment, I thought of revisiting our listening exercise on Monday.

So, if you have your radio listening table, please take it out and, using a different-coloured pen, fill in the blanks again until I say to stop.

For those who want to hear it at a slow speed, download the MP3 file and open it in Windows Media Player. While it's playing, click on Play and then on Slow.

Then:

1. Create a legend to indicate what colour ink means what, e.g. blue ink means today's work (Mar. 23).
2. Take a picture of it and upload it to your blog.
3. Stay tuned for more instructions!
