Hi everyone,
I can't believe we have only three more lessons left before the summer break. This also means we have just two more weeks until our group presentations. Discussions: Overall, everyone has shown a lot of improvement in their discussions. Group leaders are directly asking for opinions and all group members participated in the discussions actively. However, there are times when interactions are only between the group leader and each group members. In our discussions, there also needs to be interactions between group members. In order to encourage interaction between group members, group leaders can ask these questions:
In next week's class, we'll spend about 45 minutes on activities to prepare you for your presentations (e.g. gestures review, eye contact, and voice inflection). For the last part of class, you'll have time to work with your presentation groups to make final preparations. Homework:
Blog Question #9: Tell me about your presentation progress. What have you had to do to prepare for your presentation? What challenges have you had? What are some of your worries about your presentation? *Write 8-10 sentences. *Use capitalization, punctuation & spelling correctly. *Submit by Wednesday, June 26 by 6:00pm.

We then completed activities about how to organization your presentation (structure and expressions) and how to prepare your outline You won't have a lot of time in class to prepare for your presentations, so make sure you arrange time with your group outside of class to plan and prepare your presentation. Discussions: Since we spent most our our lesson on learning how to organize our presentations, we only have enough time for one round of discussions. However, I'm quite impressed with how much everyone has improved this semester, especially with conversational style. Keep up the good work! For next week's discussions, remember these points:
