First day of Class. Part One.

Dear Class,

For those of you who are fans of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, this blog will hopeful serve as your travel guide for the months ahead.

For those of you who don't know the film a)go watch the trailer and b) if in doubt, the answer is always 42.

The idea is that, at the beginning of every class, we'll take 15 minutes to explore a new blog post.

Sometimes we'll look at a grammar point (because those things are important), sometimes we'll consider something in the news (an upcoming nuclear war... terrifying, right???), and other times we'll describe and debate topics evoked by images and documents.

Your side of the deal is to come to class with an A4 notebook/cahier (24*32cm) which is clearly labeled with your name, my name, the year and your class.

I will try and have the page ready for you when you come into class.. so you can get started as soon as you're seated.

I'll collect your notebook and assess it at the end of each trimestre - so please, for your sake and mine, keep it neat and tidy.

Note: I will be using resources that should prove useful for any English learning you would like to do outside of the classroom... so please do note down, when possible, the web address and source of the material used.

So, here goes. Let's get this year started !
