"It is only by introducing the young to great literature, drama and music, and to the excitement of great science that we open to them the possibilities that lie within the human spirit -- enable them to see visions and dream dreams.” -Eric Anderson
Jessica i have been going ahead reading the book at home. so i think we could be more focused on the reading and comment on idioms and expressions from the book, that it could be highly usseful in order to know non-formal english.
ReplyDeletei also appreciate that people that have spent time reading the book at home could share some comments at our mettings.
another suggestion. i think we should try more to all the people get more involved at sessions, maybe making rounds with a litlle time to each person, and maybe its better going more focussed on the reading of the book. that could helps avoid some of the people taking the most of the time making comments, and no time left for going ahead on the book or other stuff. Thanks
