Wednesday Homework, Billie Holliday

Hi everybody.  Sorry to have let yesterday's post slip my mind.  I won't do it again!

First of all, I'd like to say thanks to Sundus and Dhefaf for their fine presentations on Tuesday and Wednesday.  We learned a lot from both of them, and I think I learned a lot myself from Dhefaf's presentation.  It's nice to have different teaching techniques, and I should be more creative!

For those of you who enjoyed listening to Billie Holliday singing "Summertime," here's a link to a Youtube site. 

                














   Summertime

Smmertime, and the livin' is easy,
Fish are jumping, and the cotton is high.
Your Daddy's rich, and your Ma is good lookin'
So hush little baby, don't you cry.

One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing,
And you'll spread your wings and you'll take the sky.
But 'til that morning, there's nothing can harm you
With Daddy and Mammy standin' by.


Our homework yesterday was Exercise 1 and 3 on pages 354-355.  We'll check it tomorrow in class, but I will check, so be sure to do it!  I have to give everyone a grade for homework, you know!

Our homework for today is Exercises 4 and 5 on page 357.  Also, please read the paragraph about Linda Cook on page 25 of the copies that I gave you today.  Then do the six vocabulary questions (Exercise 3).

See you tomorrow, and be sure to be on time.  Soo is leaving this week, so she'll give her last presentation.
