14 November 2016,
today was the last class of this semester, the teacher gave us our work back,
it was weekly healthy diet planner. My score wasn’t good because I made some
mistakes and then she gave us handouts. It was about “Classic Ann Landers”. the teacher told us a bit about the biography of Ann Landers.

Next, she asked us to read the information on the handouts as
quickly as we can and get all ideas what it about.
After that, she reminded us a bit about our manner because many
students were talking in class while she was teaching.
Next, she asked us to do exercise by matching each letter to Ann
Landers with its correct response.
Today she showed us a good website to learn English and let us
watched a video about Hillary Clinton Concession Speech.
Here is a link if you want to watch: http://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/hillary-clinton-concession-speech/3589739.html
After finish watching, she gave us a corrective feedback and then
she asked us to do another exercise. When we all finished, she asked for
volunteer to write the answer on the board and she gave us corrective feedback
later and then she asked us to work in group of three people to do the third
exercise. In this exercise we had to read the letter to Ann Landers and we had
to give advice to the writer instead of Ann Landers.
The writer’s problem was that her granddaughter behaves not well
and she gets along with her granddaughter not well so she asked for advice to
improve her relationship with her granddaughter. After finished this exercise,
every groups had to send representative of each group.
This was advice from my group.
Dear Southwest: I can tell you it happens with almost families when
the kids are being teenager; they think that they grow enough so they should
have their own space. You just have to understand them and give them a time to
adapt themselves
Maggie maybe a bit lack self-discipline so you should tell your son
to warn her and teach her to behave better
Today I’d learnt many vocabularies and leant how to pronounce it
correctly.

a legal document that states and explains a formal agreement between two
different people or groups, or the agreement itself.

When we finished lesson, we had to do a quiz. It was pretty
difficult for me.
The strategies that I used today were skimming, scanning, guessing
words meaning from context and Predicting.
For me, i thought
this lesson was pretty easy because there were not much difficult vocabularies and
the texts were short but I still found some sentences that I didn’t understand because
of grammar but I could solve that problem by asking my friends and teacher. I
had a lot of fun in class today because the lesson was interesting and as we
had to work in group so it was fun to brainstorm ideas and discuss with friends
as I love talking a lot so I didn’t get bored. See you next semester because I am
pretty sure that teacher will ask us to write the blogs again.
