class 10 nov

Quite a few of you missed class that day ! So here's what we did : 
We worked on a couple of sheets in class from the coursebook Natural English (pages 6 and 8). 
We spoke a lot and got to know each other better. It was a fun class for me and I hope it was the same for the rest of the class. 
For home-work I would like you to reflect on the differences in the usage of the words could, would and should. When would we use these terms ? In what context ? Are they action words (verbs) ?  Try constructing different types of sentences with these words.

Language dead or alive?

Here's your first task : 
You are expected to 
search
and read 
and find
and read some more
then select
and read even more
and then write about 
and describe 
in your own words
a 'lost' language: one that has died and been lost to human civilisation forever. 
You could however also choose to speak about the findings of a "new" language : one that has recently been 'discovered'. 
Happy searching !! 

Who are you ?

Describe yourself .... 
And your family ... 
And your friends ... 
And your hobbies ...
And your pets ... 
And your plants ...
And your neighbours .... 
In short ... everything you want to .... about YOU !
