Friday Homework, Study Sheet

I hate Fridays!  There's always so much to study before the test and we usually have to say goodbye to some students.  Today, Youran, Jungmin, and Eunseon left us.  Good luck, good bye and I hope we can meet again someday. 

There is some homework for the weekend in addition to studying for the test. 

We studied Focus 4 and 5 in Grammar Dimensions and will check homework Exercise 6 on page 392 and Exercise 9 on page 394.

Also, do the vocabulary exercise on pate 97 of the handout from Academic Connections and read the article I handed out: Social Conditions that Encourage Innovation.  I'm going to base reading questions for the test on this article, so it might be a good idea for you to read it thoroughly.  If you weren't in class, sorry!  There's no version available on the internet.  However, you can check the vocabulary words which I've listed in our study sheet below. 

I guess it's a good idea to come to class on Friday!   Have a great weekend and see you on Monday!
