Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!

Well last night was our last night for classes and there were some really good presentations!

Level 1 described someone and everyone had to guess the person.  Great group involvement and descriptions!

Level 2 wrote about their favorite holiday and 2 volunteers read their paper.  Very good writing!

Level 3 graced us with two Christmas songs - choreographed by the teacher.  I could hear other levels singing along.  Very entertaining!!

Level 4 talked about what they learned this semester unscripted!  They did great!

Level 5 performed a Christmas play.  Great job, looked like they really enjoyed performing it!

Last but not least, our Transition class.  They talked about how much they learned this past semester.  They did a great job communicating their feelings.

Then, we ended with the 12 days a Christmas.  Level 1 was responsible for the 1st and 7th day, level 2 was responsible for 2nd and 8th day, etc.  It was a great way to end our program!  Everyone working together in the end, as one big learning family!  It was so much fun, and everyone participated.  The off-key singers added another dimension to the fun!

Don't forget!  January 7 is registration!  We will see everyone there, right?!  Bring your friends, get them started in learning English.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!  ...and a Happy New Year!!!

Thanksgiving?

Hi Everyone,

Don't forget!  There is no class on Thursday, November 26 - it's Thanksgiving! It's a day to give THANKS. Yes, that's right! Say "Thank You" to those you love, to those that have helped you, to your teachers :), to your students for their dedication, to God for your blessings, to family members and whomever else you can think of.

What is Thanksgiving? It's a national holiday and a day that Americans spend with their friends and family. We eat turkey, stuffing, vegetables, bread, cranberry sauce, pumpkin and apple pie. Yummmm..... We also gain a few pounds from all the good food.  :(  Not so good.

Happy Holiday....Enjoy!
