Hello!

So, the Health Unit is over. I think it was quite a success, especially judging on the essays that the students wrote in the test (if I'm wrong, please comment). No, I'm looking forward to the poster contest results. The posters are already exhibited, later in this month, I hope, we will distribute the voting leaflets among 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th graders and the teachers and then get some prizes (besides honor and praise) for the winners...
Finally, we started talking about something not related to health. Or is it?
Communications is the title of Unit 3 which we shall mostly study in groups. Every lesson I shall prepare a short group task that the students will have to do and hand in the results/works at the end of the lesson. The grade for this unit will consist 50 % of the work done in class and 50 % of the oral assessment.
Today we talked about TV and how parents and children cannot have a common TV set. I learned that most students have their own TV sets and they don't really watch that much TV (I guess they spend more time on FB and doing homeworks:)
For homework I gave the first two exercises in the WB (p. 96,97) because tomorrow in class groups will discuss and produce an ideal TV programme.
See you soon.
