Report writing and more!!

What's this flower????


















G'day all,

I hope you are having a good week! It was great to hear some of you telling your Dreamtime Stories to the class on Tuesday! I was very impressed! Well done! Now I'll be looking forward to reading your opinion of a story of your own choice! I hope that some of the expressions from this morning helped you!

Today, you'll have a chance to do some research for your report on an Aboriginal item! Do a Google search for the topic you have to research. Please remember NOT TO COPY the text. You can print the information but you MUST write asbout the item IN YOUR OWN WORDS! Do not plagiarise! You can submit your work on your blog but I would like to have a hard copy of your final copy! It makes it easier for me to correct! Remember to include a picture! You'll also have to include a bibliography!

If you finish your research, please log on to Time4English and go to the menu on the left side of the page. As you are doing a unit of work on Health with Gordana, I thought this work would be useful for you!!!!!!!!!Click on to Stories and then check out the following: Elementary- Doctor's Appointment; Intermediate- Acupuncture & Chiropractic! These are interesting listening activities!

Finally, open Our Class 2006 and listen to the podcasts by Rosa's students from the Health Expo! Of course, this is all dpeendent on you have sound and or your headphones!!

Happy Blogging!

PS Check out Nancy's opinion of one of the stories in Comments!

G'day all,

It was good to see that some of you actually went on the web during the break and worked on your blogs. Very well done to Ling and Nancy who have added some interesting posts on their blogs! Have a look!

Today we'll be quite busy getting our quiz up and ready for next Tuesday. It would be advisable to work in groups so that we get everything completed! It should be a fun day... if we're ready! I'm looking forward to trying all the yummy food you're going to prepare!

Speaking of quizzes, some of Peter's class have written some questions in the comments section of a few of your blogs. I'll print of the questions and the whole class can try them on Monday. If you'd like, you can post the answers on your blog in a new post.

New friends in Ireland!

G'day all,

Hope you are all enjoying the break. I'm having a real lazy time but I'm loving it!

If anyone is checking the blogs, check out the blog s of an English class in Dublin, Ireland!

Peter's class come from very different countries to ours! Notice how many Chinese students he has!!!!

Their teacher would like us to be online friends! For starters, you can check out their country quizzes and see if you can do a Google search to find the answers. Perhaps you could do a similar true false quiz about your country!
