TECH PROFICIENT?
Hello!
Wow, it's been a while since I posted twice on the same day!
UNIT 1 in our book is related to new technologies and I've realised that you all seem very much familiar to the vocabulary seen so far. Anyway, while looking for new activities and vocabulary exercises I found this pun...
Also, this past weekend, while browsing the web I came up against this term ' FILTER BUBBLES'. I find it very interesting and, although I'm not tech proficient, I could get it thanks to this video.
We'll be using it in class:
WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL!
I know, I know....
The timing of this picture isn't the best given that it's September, 30th...

I hope you learn a lot this year and enjoy the ride!
Stay tunned!

It IS really hot , isn't it? It is not summer yet (!)

Jack, do you have anything to add to that?
Did I forget anything?
INTERRUPTING POLITELY
Do you mind if I add something?
I'd like to comment on that.
If I could just make a point.
TRYING TO CHANGE AN OPINION
But don't you think that...
Yes, but isn't it true that...
Okay, but on the other hand...
Maybe there's another way to think about it.
You're partly right, but...
A real exam...
