Well, the new semester has begun and in this class only Yuta and Motoki have returned. The rest of the students are new this term. Several of the people from last term can't make it this winter because they don't want to drive on the icy roads.
I hope that the new students will get used to looking at the weblog and posting comments. I think this is a good way to make your lessons more meaningful, so please take advantage of it.
We talked about different types of communication and the reading was about how animals communicate. The article mentioned whales and elephants. If you follow this link you can hear whales and this link you can hear elephants.
The homework for next week is to look over the Think About It section and to do the Vocabulary in Context. We will start the speaking section next time. Please add a comment 9:15:04 PM
