Woah! Rollercoaster ride anyone?!

23/2/2017

I had never heard of the crazy "rollercoaster bridge" in Japan! Have you?

Have a look at this article about the bridge and use what you learned from our last unit to tell me more about this bridge. What kind of bridge is it? What materials were used to build it? Why was it built this way? You can also find videos of cars "riding" the bridge on YouTube.

I'll accept answers in the comments section until Sunday evening.

Talking politics

22/2/2017

Some interesting discussions were had yesterday during and after the presentations about American politics. My American side enjoyed listening to non-American teens have opinions about my country's politics. When it comes to politics, you're on your way to not being the guy in this picture. Well done!

On Monday, we will work with the vocabulary of politics. Have a look at this list of politics vocabulary. Some words are even the same as the German definition, but I want you to work on your pronunciation. Use the audio button to listen how the words are pronounced. Repeat the pronunciation after the lovely Quizlet woman's voice.

Dear 1A,

We will start a new unit today focusing on English around the world. At the end of the unit you'll know about countries around the world that use English. You'll also be able to:
- use high numbers in the thousands and millions,
- use 's to show possession
- use modal verbs like can, could, might, must, and should

Have a look at the vocabulary words for unit 4. Which words do you already know? kind of know? don't know at all?

In the comments section please post the words you kind of know.
