HeeJun Presentation, Thursday Homework, Eastern Standard Kitchen

FIELD TRIP

First of all, if you haven't been in class for a couple of days (you know who you are!), we have a field trip tomorrow!  We're going to have a look at Fenway Park and eat in a nearby restaurant, Eastern Standard Kitchen on Commonwealth Avenue in Kenmore Square.  We're going to meet as usual at 8:00 in our classroom at the YMCA, then after Eman's presentation, walk through the Fenway neighborhood towards our goal.  If for some reason you can't make it to class before we leave--8:45 most likely--then you can meet us at Eastern Standard Kitchen at 528 Commonwealth Avenue.   It's just a few steps away from the Kenmore Square T Stop--easy to find, easy to get to!

Now, back to business!

You would never have known that it was HeeJun's first presentation.  She was confident and well-organized, and taught us all about Chu-Seok, an August festival in Korea similar to Thanksgiving in some ways.  The food looked delicious and the games looked like fun!  HeeJun's talk was informative and interesting.  I can't wait for her next one!

And finally, we finished up Unit 22, covering Focus 3, an explanation of subjunctives in adjective complements.  (Note the difference between compliment and complement!)

For homework, that you do Exercise 5 on page 403  is mandatory.  Also, it is imperative that you write it on a sheet of paper and hand it in to me tomorrow before Eman's presentation.

Once again: tomorrow, we'll meet as usual at 8:00.  Eman will do her presentation, and then we'll head over to the Fenway are, soak in the atmosphere of the home of the Red Sox, and then have a bite at Eastern Standard Kitchen.  Instead of a break time, we'll leave Eastern Standard around 11 (ten minutes early) so we have time to get back to school by 11:20 (of course, you can go directly home if you want).

See you tomorrow--and be punctual!
