Saturday, 30 October, 2010: A2 Class

In this lesson, we read an email in our textbook from Grace about her summer job.  Some vocabulary from this lesson is:

theme park --> an amusement park (the park with the roller coaster, ferris wheel, and tilt-a-whirl)
entrance --> where you entre a building, market, park, museum, etc.  If you have to pay a fee to enter, the entrance is where you will pay (Tugsbayer suggested it might be KACC in Mongolian, and Ithink that's possible, because that is where you pay, but I wonder if KACC might just mean something like "cashier")
gift shop --> where you can buy souvenirs and gifts to remember a place you visited (such as an amusement park, a museum, etc)
cheerful --> very happy and positive all the time
outgoing --> not shy; not afraid to meet and talk to people
opening remarks (in a letter or email) --> the things we say at the beginning of an email or letter when we are just starting to write
closing remarks (in a letter or email) --> the things we say at the end of an email or letter when we are finishing up and about to end it.

Below are a few images of amusement parks and popuplar amusement park rides:
