HI ESL_ Caroline

Thanks for your comment and letting us know that there are some missing files for this lesson. You should be able to access the audio now from the downloads. Whilst we recover the presentation, you can use the image from this page, which is the image that the speaker is talking about.

Hope that helps and that you enjoy the class,

Cath

Hi! I can't find the audio or the presentation under the download section, just the lesson plan and the worksheet. I've tried a different browser, but the result is the same.
