Week 2

G'day all

I hope you all had a good first week back in class. You did well on Monday when we were looking at facts versus opinions in advertising! On Tuesday you all did very well with the running dictation! It certainly 'woke' you up! It was great too to have a few new students in the class! Welcome to Sara and Mariam and welcome back to Mirche and Rado. (Of course I think only Sara will attend this class!!)

I enjoyed reading your recounts about what you did during the break. I'm delighted that so many of you made it on the excursion to Bundeena. The weather was great and you all had a marvellous experience I think!

Last week on BTN there was an article on Beach Safety. Open the website and log on (ask me for the username/password). Print off the written exercises before clicking on the video link.

Have you ever heard of a webquest? Well, it's like a quest/hunt for information using the web. If you follow the link, you will end up with some pages that require you to answer questions using the information you gather by opening the highlighted sites. You don't have to read EVERYTHING, just what's relevant for the quest. In Part 2, when you have to send an ecard, I'd like you to send it to me as well as a friend! (Ask me for my email address if you don't already know it!)

Ok, so let's begin! Click on the link to the webquest and have some fun!

For those who are up to date, here is Episode 5 of The Road Less Travelled. Open the written exercises here and the audio link here.


Have fun and Happy Blogging!
