You will need to record some of these exercises in the form of mp3 files, the recommended software is MYMP3. Be sure to set the bitrate to 32 bit or less to keep the files small enough to email without overfilling email inboxes! Another program you can try is Free Easy MP3 Recorder. |
| The pronunciation exercises included on this page are taken from the excellent site at Okanagan University. |

Like last week, in this exercise you are asked asked to answer questions online. After you have completed all of the questions your work is checked and you are given a "grade". At the end of the exercise, take a "screen" shot" that shows that you have completed the exercise and also shows your "grade". Your "grade" does not matter. I am very interested to see what kind of grades the class gets so that I can judge whether exercises such as these are of any use. Click HERE to access the grammar exercise.

Open 'Paint' (Start>Programs>accesories>Paint) or other graphics program, hit 'paste' and then save file as 'exerciseX' somewhere you will be able to find it Mac OS Screen Capture: 1.
