Wednesday, 27 October, 2010: A2 Class

In this lesson, we reviewed how to talk about fixed arrangements by using the present continuous (remember the listening exercise we did?).  Then, we moved on to a new page in the book and Marie attempted to have a discussion about emails, how often we send emails, who we send emails to, and why we send emails, but you guys did not seem interested in following the discussion or the lesson.  This led to Marie telling you guys about the new grading scheme for next term.  For this first term, you were lucky because there were no grades in my class, but for next term, I will be giving you guys grades based on class participation (bringing your notebooks/books to class, taking notes, listening to the lesson, following instructions), homework (whether your homework is done and complete), tests (you will have some tests next term), and assignments (I will give one or two assignments), so hopefully this will be enough of an incentive for you to take English class a little more seriously next semester.

Don't forget your homework!
Khisigsuren, Joy, Rose, and Temuulen all have to create a gmail account.  Just go to www.gmail.com, click the button that says "Create Account", and follow the instructions.  All other students already have email addresses, so everyone (including Khisigsuren, Joy, Rose, and Temuulen, after they have created their email addresses) must write me an email at marieinmongolia@gmail.com.  You can write about anything you want.  You can tell me about your family, you can tell me about your fixed plans for the weekend, you can ask me a question about class, but you must write an email!
