FCE Students struggling with Reading
|
Hi there, I teach online and have lots of problems with my intermediate students who just aren�t doing their tasks unless the tasks are easy. They especially avoid doing their readings. I asked one of my students, who really is a good kid, why he wasn�t doing his work and he told me frankly that he doesn�t like the readings. They’re difficult and boring for him. I�ve read that here in Peru, reading habits and reading comprehension are really low. I know my students aren�t reading in Spanish and getting them to read long exercises in English really is a challenge. Anyone have any advice for me? Would really appreciate it. Many thanks, Esther

Great input from all of you! I have to admit, it does seem that kids just don�t read, as in what we traditionally call reading, much anymore.The instant access to everything has changed this paradigm I think. So, thinking a bit out of the box, I would consider having them watch videos if available, but require they watch them with subtitles in English as welll (audio AND subtitles in English). Subconsciously the text wil be seen and processed while the other communication channels stimulate interest and retain attention. Just my thoughts, I could be wrong. Douglas |

Hey everyone... I havent been on the site for a while now. Im trying to download some of my presentations because my computer crashed and I lost some of them. But to my surprise, it just dont let me download my own work that I uploaded here. When I click download, it takes me to a site where a page appears to purchase a domain. Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can download my own work? Please! Thanks in advance!!

Dear colleague, I need help with the following question please. Identify the adjective(s) in the following sentence: 1. Some museums display sculpture and paintings. Would some be the answer? If yes, why would it be considered an adjective and not a determiner?
2. These museums may focus on one special kind of art.
Would special and kind be the adjectives in the previous sentence?
3. Other museums feature birds, sea creature, dinosaurs, and other
animals.

Hello there Caren 630
Please consider my answer to your questions.
You are correct to say that the word -some- in your sentence is considered an adjective and a determiner.
Therefore, it is a determiner as it determines the number of museums that are being described in the sentence.
It is also an adjective because it modifies the noun museum.
Then, I agree with Maryse.
Special in the 2nd sentence is also an adjective modifying the noun -kind-.
Lastly, the word sea is used as an adjective to modify the word creature.
Thank you Maryse. |
