I had a great first week. Every class was registered. As usual, my speech class was filled to capacity. I hope most of the students keep coming.
This semester I started a new thing: First day packets with class info, a pencil, name tag, and other useful info. I think it was appreciated by both new and returning students. I started with about 40 packets which were plenty for the first two days, but I had to hustle to make more on Wednesday. Thanks to Rocio and George for helping me out with that! I now have a supply of about thirty packets for students who join in week 2 and beyond.
I have added a few new things to the website:
1. a new poll about winter vacation (home page)
2. Christmas song lyrics and an activity for the song called "Seasons of
Love" (just for fun)
3. an assignment calendar (home - calendars)
4. a link to Quizlet.com for practice with Touchstone 3, Unit 12
vocabulary (Monday)
5. a lesson about 2010 news stories (Thursday)
6. a link to a video activity from EnglishClub.com (Videos #7)
I encourage everyone to leave some feedback.
