Tip: A segunda e última avaliação está chegando! Acreditamos que o seu desempenho dependerá muito mais

da sua dedicação ao longo do semestre, aula após aula, do que o quanto você vai estudar dias antes do teste.

De qualquer maneira, revisar e consolidar o conteúdo antes de qualquer avaliação é sempre válido e nos deixa

mais seguros. Assim, seguem algumas dicas que podem ser usadas nos próximos dias:

Neste módulo há diversos objetivos comunicativos. Use o seu STUDENT’S GUIDE para mapear o conteúdo e

planejar os seus estudos. Ou seja, reflita sobre eles e veja quais objetivos você tem mais ou menos preparo

para atingir. Não estude por muito tempo um único objetivo, pois às vezes não sobra tempo para outros;

Lembre-se que há sugestões de atividades no seu STUDENT’S GUIDE que podem ser feitas no livro ou no

CD-ROM do seu curso e ainda no e-Campus;

Já que estamos falando em e-campus, vale ressaltar que nesta ferramenta online, há um campo chamado

e-tutor, para onde você pode enviar uma mensagem com suas dúvidas;

Combine com os seus colegas para estudar junto com você. Aproveite as contribuições que cada um pode

oferecer e ainda pratique os diálogos em voz alta;

Se você estiver estudando sozinho, grave a sua voz ao ler os diálogos. Além de perceber aspectos de

pronúncia a serem melhorados, você ainda terá a oportunidade de se escutar e estudar enquanto estiver

dirigindo, no metrô etc.

O segredo para aprender um idioma é estar em contato com o mesmo o maior número de vezes possível.

Além de usar os materiais didáticos do curso, estudar também pode ser divertido! Escute e cante suas canções

favoritas e assista a filmes e séries sempre que houver um tempo livre.

As anotações que você fez no caderno podem ser preciosas. Além disso, caso tenha alguma dúvida sobre

como conduzir os estudos, converse com a pessoa que mais pode lhe ajudar: o seu professor!

Have a nice test!
