1.4 - Speaking Assignment
Your first assignment! Woo Hoo!
By now, you should have already filled out the Introductory Survey and have established email contact with your teacher.... have you?
This is a culmination of what you have encountered thus far. It looks long – but it really isn’t – you just need to read/record the words that you fill in the blanks. If you find that you don't feel confident while doing your recording, it probably means that you need to go back to all of the Vocabulary Flashcards to listen (and practice) some more. ALL of these words were presented to you to listen to and practice at some point in the first 4 lessons.
Use this page to prepare/write your answers – instead of submitting written answers, you will record your answers to receive feedback on how your pronunciation is coming along after practicing with the sound files/flash cards. Please record this as one sound file.
The rubric used to grade your assignment is at the bottom of the page.
Recording and uploading instructions are on the previous page.
The easiest way is to just record it with the Audio Recorder right at the bottom of the page:
