And now, it's time to begin!

Welcome to June!



The official countdown to the end of the semester has officially started.



Concerned about your proficiency/marks?



Here’s what you can do:



1) attend workshops on Fridays at 3:00.

2) participate in the English conversation circle on Fridays at 1:30.

3) Check out the Study skills section of the Student Handbook.

4) Work regularly on the class dossier.

5) Print out and work with the study skills table published in Virtual.

6) Remember to always (always!) speak English when the opportunity arises (during your work experience, in the casino, in class, etc.).



Today, I have planned for you to do the following:



A. Spend 15 minutes, posting comments and reading the comments others have left for you!

B. Spend 15 minutes peer editing your outlines for your reflective essay. You need to read 2 classmates’ outlines and, likewise, have two classmates review your outline. Sign any paper you review at the bottom. Focus on content and be very reflective with your feedback.

C. When at least 2 people have commented on your outline, you can begin working on your first draft.



Note: Today in class we will not follow the blog programme. Instead, you will use this time to work on your papers.
