Today I handed out the group's phone circle for 2011-2012. In case of an unforeseen cancellation of one of our sessions, I will use this phone list, I will send out an email to all participants and I will leave a message on this blog.
I also handed out the new books, Let's Talk 3, after which we had a brief look at the book's scope and sequence (pages iv and v) and revised useful classroom phrases on pages vi and vii. We then started unit 1 'Getting acquainted' and managed to nearly finish unit 1A on Successful conversations.
For next week revise unit 1a and write down 9 questions for activity 3B

First session of the new season and we were able to welcome back two familiar faces to our group. We are now with six women and three men.
We talked about our summer holidays with the help of a handout 'Your Last Vacation'. We practised using the past tense in pairs and with the entire group. We also refreshed asking questions in English.
We then finished Let's Talk 2 with having a look at the self-study section for unit 16. That has allowed us a fresh start with book 3 in two weeks, on October 27.
