Hi, everyone. Welcome new students and welcome back returning students. I'm very excited to be your teacher this term and the school has some wonderful events planned for you. Of course you are going to study a lot of English, but we are also going to go on 4 field trips to different places around the city and we are going to have a big party at Foster Beach at the end of the term. Chicago is a wonderful city all year around, but it is especially nice in the summer so I will try to keep you informed of special events coming up.
Last week we started the chapter in our book called "An Average American" and now I want you to share with each other what you think an average person from your country is like. Joanna is going to introduce you to how a "blog" works. The program you are looking at right now is called a blog. She is going to demonstrate how to write a comment, read each other's comments, and ask and answer each other's questions. By the way, I am in my office right now, but I can read what you are doing by logging on to the website at the same time you are using it. So don't be surprised if you see a question from me. When you are finished reading this, please let Joanna know so that she can start her lesson.
Have fun and see you in class tomorrow!
