hello out there

Did anyone read my comment on Jane's last post?

conference

Hi everyone,

Jane and I were at a great conference today and learned lots of fun, new activities for ESL classes...so stay tuned! ( That means just wait and you'll find out!)

Have a great Family day weekend. I am driving my daughter and her friends to Buffalo to the mall on Monday. Oh joy! ( That is said in a sarcastic voice!)

C'mon everyone! Even Barack Obama has a blog!

Where is everyone???

You can start "talking" and have some fun! This is not writing class...

Here are some questions to get you started:

• What about Canada surprises you?
• Do you like living in Hamilton? Why or why not? 
• My favourite...

When he became president, Barack Obama created a blog where all Americans can post comments.

Here is the link to the White House website...

Graduation Celebration & Christmas Party

The graduation celebration and party happened almost as planned, but the stormy weather meant that the number of students was much smaller than expected, so the graduation and party was held in J205. About 50 people attended.
Congratulations to Tamer, Stase, Armando, Hai Yan, and Isabel who did the best job ever of singing the "Happy Christmas" song, and to Matevos who joined them for the last three lines. After their song, everyone present enjoyed a quiz game with prizes, jokes, another song, some fine speeches, and a few LINC Youth videos, including one on Computer Networking "starring" Paula's son!
After the LINC 6 and ELT students received their graduation certificates, we had brunch - a meal between breakfast and lunch. People brought plenty of delicious food, desserts, and drinks to share.
If anyone has photos, it would be great if you could post them.
A big thank you to everyone for coming to help make this day special for the LINC 6 and ELT graduates, and best wishes to all for a very happy holiday!
