Homework week 1

Hi D, and anyone else who forgot...
The homework this weekend is to write a cause/effect essay about the changes in diet in your country. You can focus on either the causes, the effects, or both, but be sure it is clear which you choose. The essay should be 4-6 paragraphs long.
Any questions, just add them here, in the comment section.

This weekend..

Hi everybody, just a note to say we won't bother with the student news this week. It was all about the Boston bombings and it's all out of date now. Anyway, you can all be working on your compare/contrast essay...........
Keep warm

This week

Hi Everybody,
This is the cnn news video for you watch and talk about on Monda. If you were absent from class on Thursday, the homework was writing an argumentative essay. Remember to choose a topic which can be argued from two sides, but which can be supported with evidence and details.
 Have a great weekend,
Al

Hi everybody,
Hope the last two weeks has gone well fo you. I hear there was a bit of a change of plan, and the original sub couldn't come. I'm not sure who has been teaching you, or what you've been looking at this week. If you have the chance, watch the cnn news here

and we'll talk about it on Monday morning.
Did you have any homework (essay writing?) over the weekend? I'll prepare something for Monday, but b Tuesday we'll be back on to the usual schedule.
See you all on Monday,
Al
