Nanotechnology

Welcome back from Spring Break, Testing, and Final Projects! Let's get back to our regular rigors of class.

First of all, here is a link to the reading portion of the lecture, which includes definitions. Homework for day 1 includes 10 vocabulary sentences, the ACT grammar passage questions 16-30, and to study and complete a brief written summary of passage 3. You will be given a very short quiz on this passage. Keep in mind that the Complete Guide to the TOEFL section 8 vocabulary quiz will be on Thursday, so you should start to study those words.

Here is a link for the podcast for part 2 of the lesson. Its a challenging one, but don't be discouraged. Remember, you can stop, start, and replay the selection. Here is a link to the second part of the lesson, which includes definitions. Here is a link to the homework listening passage on nanotechnology fashions.

Here is the link to the podcast for part 3 (writing). You will find instructions for the counterargument here. Your homework assignment is to complete a high-quality draft of your essay on nanotechnology with a counterargument.

Here is the link to lesson 4 (speaking). In addition to studying for a vocabulary quiz on the words from parts 1 and 2 of this lesson, please complete the practice reading test I distributed at the end of class on Thursday.
