My Big Day

Entry 2 English Resource

This is a resource I've used a lot over the years . Its  good to practice listening for key information .
I use it for my entry1/2 learners. The resource can be found on the Excellence Gateway. 

From time to time the links on the website go missing and it takes time to track them down so I also have them on My Box net  just in case I can never find them again on the Excellence Gateway!
