Solidarity Campaign Against Poverty

Don't forget that the French Department at EOI Arucas has organised a solidarity campaign against poverty. Take any clothes and non-perishable food that you'd like to give to the poor in our own society to our school before 14th April. Also, you might like to take a look at this Animated Map by Christian Aid which shows where poverty and prosperity have been most present over the past 200 years.

EXTRA LISTENINGS

Do you have problems with your listening? Then this is for you!
Visit VOA News (Special English section) regularly and you will listen to some news read SLOWLY.
First listen to the story once or twice WITHOUT READING IT. When you feel that you understand the general idea, then LISTEN AND READ the news. It is important that you do it in this order. If you read it first, you are not testing your listening... you are just cheating!
This is the tale of the 3 little pigs... more or less! Good luck!
