Monday, Monday...
Good morning ladies!
I hope you are all well this fine Monday morning.
With this course, ieltscommunity7, it seems that you are weblog readers rather than weblog writers. I can understand that, even though I strongly feel you would benefit from weblog posting messages, asking questions, putting corrected reports/letters/essays using BLOGMEMBER account in case your invitation got lost in cyberspace.
It's dead easy. Go to www.blogger.com sign in the Blogmember username and password. On the dashboard go to our blog name ieltscommunity / blog ID 19683548 click on NEW POST and then off you go - compose yourself!
Ah well, this is an informal blog, other ones were quite lively, let's use this a kind of class journal and message board - not just IELTS IELTS IELTS...
Tonight we have the first debate :Aysha/Bushra/Raja are the traditionalists who think computers DO NOT necessarily help children learn, while the innovators Alyazi/Mona/Layali will argue that computers are vital for CHILDREN (not us as adults). The rest of you will have read the article and will listen to the two two teams and decide who has given the better argument and say why. Each speaker has two minutes. I will summarise the main points and then the audience will decide. Next debate we shall have 6 different speakers and in the final debate I will help the side that has only two speakers.
Are there any more National Geographic reviews? Do swap the magazines around.
We'll also look at speaking and reading skills tonight. Did you read the speaking handout I gave you last night? Was it useful? I have some more tips tonight and what to say instead of "of course"! I'd like you to do a full scale reading test AND a task 2 writing as well - you have been warned! I'll also give you my three page list of special words for task 2 writing and my advice for the essay structure - all part of the service!
Zeena played like an angel in her school concert last night - I'll catch the video recording her mum made... Ah well, that's life, isn't it?
Rock on, ladies!
See you tonight, 6.30 sharp!
I also want to do a feedback session with you as we are halfway through the schedule after today's lesson - already!!! I need your suggestions as to what to concentrate on for the next 6 mega-lessons.
Hoping for some comments / reaction - even just to say "hello"!
