Week 8

AMEP-A Semester 2 2008 on arrival at Bondi for Sculpture by the Sea!



G'day all!


I hope you had an enjoyable weekend. It was lovely to be able to get out and do a few things, wasn't it?


By now you should all have the topics for your Oral Presentation due the 17th November. if you don't then please see me as soon as possible.


Last week you were introduced to some new technology in the classroom. On Tuesday, you did some work on the smartboard with Rosa's class. I believe you worked on opinion texts and prepared the structure on a grid. Then on Wednesday we had a video conference with the librarian Maya. Wasn't that interesting? It is the way many companies do business these days instead of flying executives around the country or around the world! You were very good at asking questions but I hope you all have your notes to write up your text in your blog.


As you know from class last Thursday, we've got another excursion coming up next week. It is very different to Featherdale but equally educational and fun too. have a look at Rosa's blog for some information and also some classwork about Sculpture by the Sea and other things.


All that should keep you busy for a while! When you finish you can start/continue the research for your Oral presentation.

In the next day or two, I'll give you a list of all work you need to complete to satisfy this part of your course.
Take care and happy blogging!
