ESL/EFL Sister Classes

Finally getting started at Toyo Gakuen University in Japan

October 23, 2008

Hello everyone!

Thank you for all the great things you’ve contributed to this project. My classes are finally getting started on it.

I posted a new discussion thread on the Student forum as an example for my students in the Homestay English class. Yesterday, the lesson was about communicating with the homestay family. We talked about explaining one’s home town. I decided that the Student Forum would be a great way for my students to practice this. Most are finished their draft and will be posting to the forum in next Wednesday’s class. Thanks to Maria in Spain for joining the discussion.

My students in the Music class are starting their voicethread project about music genres. Hopefully I will be able to post it in about 2 weeks. Once I do I hope that your students join the voicethread conversation.

Recently we had a festival at our university. I have tried to insert some photos here but alas I’ve failed. So, I’ll try again later.

Cheers!
