Looking ahead to next week..

I forgot to mention that today was our two month anniversary together. Happy anniversary, guys!

Also, what a great debate today. I am very impressed with your preparation as well as your teamwork. I have to say that this is one of the best classes I've ever had in this regard. You just work so well with each other. That's why I'm pairing you up again for presentations.

Let me try to give you a heads up for some of the work ahead next week:

Monday:
First, we'll have our second debate. I think we'll allow each team about 10 minutes to argue each time. Then we'll discuss "Sex, Lies, and Conversation." If there's time, we'll do listening work.

Tuesday:
Listening work/lecture 7
(If you want to start preparing for this, look over the vocabulary on p. 105, read the article on p. 106, and do exercises 12 and 14)

Wednesday:
Listening work/listening test

Thursday:
2 process presentations
Tipping Point vocabulary test (introduction and chapters 1-3)

Friday:
2 process presentations

It's possible that I won't give a reading test on chapter 4 of Tipping Point. I might ask you to do something else with this chapter, such as write a short paper. I haven't decided yet.

Finally, please go on line to townsendpress.net and do the work on the inference chapter which I've assigned.
