Dear Students

I hope you and all your family are well, especially during this Coronavirus pandemic that is just arriving in our country.

The University of São Paulo has encouraged us to make use of online technology while the current situation persists.


Concerning this week's class, I'm proposing some exercises, according to the following rules. It's only reading tasks.

1) For those from A2 to B1 (CEFR):

# Read the Editorial of Nature about Coronavirus https://go.nature.com/2IXAf0c and answer: a) what is the main idea behind every paragraph (use one or two words of the text); b) the suggestions of the text have connections to what we have seen in our country? (write the answer in a paragraph with three sentences). Send me by email, with your name/surname and "morning" or "evening" class.

2) For those from B2 to C1:

# Transcribe the following video: https://bit.ly/3a9kNtS (send me by email).

# Read the information on this page https://bit.ly/2xTxk6x  and make annotations knowing that we will discuss (online) the subject next week based on, for example, what is the steps to protect yourself and your family in case COVID-19 spreads in your community?

Later, I will send information about the channel for online discussions. For now, you may contact me by email for questions, suggestions of exercise and activities, and web tools.
