Hello everyone!
We start the new year - even though we're en February by now - with a new topic for you to write about. Well, if you happen to be Chinese, you have just started the year 2011... Be as it may, here is the new activity for you. It deals with the topic of food around the world and also with the really useful topic of "table manners". After all, we don't want to offend our hosts in the future or to act inappropriately in a business meeting, right?
So for those of you who want to discover Table Manners Around the World... what about doing this nice Online Quiz? http://www.fekids.com/img/kln/flash/DontGrossOutTheWorld.swf
And now comes the WRITING TASK!
This month we are going to create a "Food and Drink Guide for Visitors". So what about choosing an interesting recipe to talk about and, apart from that, telling foreigners about some of your traditions? Read other students' comments before writing so that you do not describe the same recipe or explain the same traditions, ok? Obviously, the first person to write has more options than the last!!! ;)
For help, you can have a look at page 94, exercise 1 and 8. Both will be useful for this task. As always, if you have any problems do not hesitate to contact me, ok?
Good luck and enjoy your meal!
