Film time

Today we will be watching a film for most of the lesson and then on Wednesday there will be a follow-up....

Reschedule II

Still far from done with the National tests.

I have put the results of those who are done out on Vklass.

Next Wednesday we will have a short grade talk..

Today:

1. Do the hand-out from Monday about the first five chapters of "No. 1 Ladies"

2. Continue to read page 59- 120 in the book.

There will be a new hand-out on these pages after the Spring break (Sportlov)

Need to reschedule!

So many people missed the national test ( either parts) that we need to get those done today and also do the work sheet for the first sixty pages of "The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency"

The revision for "Homesick"- should have been a mini-test on Wednesday will be postponed (NOT cancelled!) and will be replaced by some grade talks and some station work.

The handout for today is on the TD. You can TAW when you are CD.
