Week 2

It was great to see that everyone was able to post a response and made the deadline. What a diverse group of students we have in class! I hope that I get a chance to speak with each of you individually about your area of study and work. This week we are reading paragraphs about holidays. If you could create a holiday, what would it be for? How would you celebrate it? I think I would create a day of the year that everyone had to learn something new. People could take a class or try a new sport or do anything that would be beyond their normal skills and activities. I think it's important to always be learning and growing as a person. It would be called "National Take a Risk Day".

Week1 Question

Let me know that you are connected. I would enjoy hearing about your plans for the future and how improving your English writing will help you in the future. I'll post one question a week for you to respond to. Remember this is an academic writing class, so please consider your format and grammar when you respond. Laura
