Mood:  caffeinated

Hi everyone,

We are definitely into the routine of school!  The honeymoon is over!  I'm sure that you are beginning to feel the pressure of homework and due dates.  It is really easy to get behind at this point.  And when you fall behind now, it is tough to catch up!  If you need help staying on task or need help with being motivated or just plain need encouragement, come to CAA (Centre d'aide L-304).  I'll be there on Mondays from 10:45 to 3:00.  I'll be able to help you with your English work and corrections to ensure that you get great results. 

B2 students, you will have a lot of corrections to complete on your Personal Profile texts next week.  Fortunately, in your Week 4 class, I have planned in-class time for you to work on your corrections.  I'll be there to advise you on changes that will make those texts works of art!

A2 students, I hope that you are finding your Photo Adjective Projects inspiring! 

The semester is moving along quickly!  I hope you all have a good week!

Patti

Mood:  surprised

Hi everyone,

Week 2 was definitely a week of emotions!  I have to thank all of you B2 students for your patience this week.  What a surprise it was when Tripod would not permit everyone register for an account at the same time!  AHHHH!  This was definitely not in my plan!  Well, seeing as how this is my first time creating and testing this material, I expect that you will all be victims of more glitches like that.  (Hopefully not too many more!)  I hope all of you have since been able to register and get a Tripod account from home and are ready for so website construction in Week 3.

It was great to read the B2 Personal Profiles; however, there is a lot more work to be done on that assignment. 

Each group is developing a personality and I have to say that I am generally impressed with all of you and the efforts that you have been putting in to try to accomplish the work to be done. 

On Friday, the A2 group got to watch the movie Above All Else on the new Canon projector and I have to say that it was very impressive to see the movie on the "big screen."  I love that new lab and will absolutely try to get in there as much as possible within the program.

Well, let's hope that Week 3 goes smoothly and that all of you enjoy what I have planned for you...and that everything goes as planned!

Have a great week.

Patti :)

Hi everyone,

Well, the first week of the semester has come and gone.  I hope all of you have had a great start getting together with old friends and are meeting a lot of new ones. 

I am really looking forward to this semester.  All of you have been great and seem very motivated.  Keep up that motivation and you will always succeed!

Have a great long weekend!

Patti
