HW for 1/29 and my last day with you at Advance!

Hi everyone,

We are completing Unit 4B tomorrow. Within this unit we looked at summarizing. This skill is very important in general and we tend to summarize many of our activities quite naturally. For tomorrow please summarize a movie or book and be prepared to share your written work with your peers and with me.

Also tomorrow will be my last day at Advance, after a year and 4 months! Hope to see you!

HW for 1/21

Hi everyone,

Sorry but I can't seem to find my piece of paper with the information about the HW, if anyone sees this post, could you please tell us in the comments? If I find the paper I will post.

Meantime, if you have the book please continue to review the verbs with 'get' and begin to look at transitional discourse markers.

I want to thank everyone who shared metaphors from the 'I have a dream' speech by Dr. Martin Luther King today in class. For those who did not listen to the speech, take a listen!

See you all tomorrow ~
