  Hi!  Happy Friday to everyone. It has been a great week of learning and academic growth for the A2 students. Our current story What Jo Did, has been a fun, engaging read for the class. Students learned about the sport, plus vocabulary that relates to the sport of basketball and teamwork.  The A2 group also took a mock (practice) listening test for Cambridge KET for tomorrow's upcoming exams.  Today we will have 1 class of story comprehension review and a practice of YLE Flyers exam to prepare some of our A2 students for tomorrow.  I am very proud of the progress and transition the students have achieved with my teaching. 

  Please note that all of the A2 student's assignment (bubble books) have been collected for marking. Student's communication inserts for week 10 have been adjusted.  There will be no homework for tonight. The assignment books will be returned tomorrow at class time. Thank you for your understanding and support.
