Let’s get started
Dear students of class 9cdgh. We are going to start an experiment. This site will replace worksheets and addititional material I would have to copy for you. You will have to work with me – online. I hope it will be more fun than confusion. Please be patient. If you encounter a word (for example i.e encounter) you may use http://dict.leo.org/ to find words, but be careful. It doesn’t replace your dictionary.
On the right side you look at the different tasks. You should read 5 pages per day and start on 22nd of August.
But there will be vocabuary tests and an English Test (questions, summary), as well as presentations.
Now get started! Have fun!
There are different tasks
Well, first, you have to read the book.
Second
Look at “Pages”, there you will find your task.
Third
Inform yourself about Slavery in America by browsing “links”.
There you can find interesting texts, pictures and movies.
Forth
You will create your own blog where you publish your work.
Under test you can see when the vocabulary test will take place, as well as the English Test.
