Hello Duncan's lovely students!

Hello everyone!

I can't believe it... we're already half way through the term! It's true what they say: time flies!

Like I said today, this is weekend writing number FIVE, which is the penultimate weekend writing. After next weekend, it's all about the Oral Presentations and the Research Assignment!

Next week, Hasan has suggested a lesson on using more interesting linking words (rather than 'but', 'so', 'and then' etc.), and Jeepy and Prae are confused with using 'either' and 'neither', so we'll do some work on those. It's a good idea to tell me if there are any specific language points that you're struggling with, and I'll try and include them in our lessons.

You are a FANTASTIC class, and you're doing really, really well. The standard is very high. Keep going! (or in China, we say JIA YOU!)



Here's the Coldplay song that we listened to today... with the lyrics!
