Dear Learner

 

It's that time of the year! Our Podcasts of the month are related to the season including Toys, toys, toys for level 1, Whose turn is it? (which is all about board games) for level 2, plus for level 3: Look before you eat, a podcast about food allergies.

 

Of course we have plenty of Christmas podcasts so check out the sidebars on the website for - Figgy pudding for level 1 where we talk about Christmas meals eaten in different parts of the world. We have O Christmas tree! for level 2 which explains the reason we have a tree inside the house at this time of the year. Plus, for level 3, Peter talks about his Christmases past and present in Jingle bells. However, there are many more so have a look! (We particularly like the Christmas adverts and we have three for you to watch and enjoy).

 

There'll be a few new podcasts too this month so look out for those. However, we are getting up to 600 podcasts on the site so do give us suggestions for things to talk about!

 

There are not only podcasts and worksheets but we also have loads of extra materials for learners including top listening tips to help you with real conversations and helping you recognise the key features of spoken English. And there's more! All on the Pie plus page.

 

Meanwhile, we take this opportunity to wish our listeners and members a great festive season, however you celebrate. We really look forward to seeing you all again in 2021. We are sure it's going to be a better year for everyone.

 

All the very best.

Just how important is the lead up to the holiday for the retail sector?

 

 

Attractive as well as useful, calendars also have an interesting history!

 

 

What presents did Richard buy for his family this year?
