Here are the slides from today:  Level 2 April 26 Slides

Here are the famous people slides.  We learned about the Canadian singer Celine Dion today.  Thanks, Adam!

Kamal, Tetiana, Esperanza, Lidia, Dani, Mari, and Min, please think about a famous person you like and want to present to the class.  Thank you!

I talked about my family and my husband’s complicated family:

We have many different people in our family.  Who are the people in your family?

My family isn’t very big.  I have two children.  I’m married, so I have a husband.  I have two parents: a mother and a father.  I have one brother.  I don’t have any sisters.  I have four uncles, three aunts, and four cousins.  Three of my uncles are married.  One of my uncles is single.

My mother-in-law’s name is Sue.  She has a very big and complicated family.  She has seven brothers and sisters.  Her boyfriend died before their daughter was born.  Then, she got married to a different person. This was my husband’s father, Bill.  Bill died, so Sue became a widow.  Sue got married again.  Now my husband has a step-father, Lee.  My husband and his sister are half-siblings because they have different fathers.

We practiced a Beatles song today:  “No Reply”

You can sing along with the words here:  No Reply Lyrics

We practiced pronunciation with the AY sound, as in “die,” “reply,” “hi,” “goodbye,” “lie,” and “light.”

We took Practice Quiz 2, but we didn’t take Real Quiz 2 because we ran out of time, and also because so many people were absent.  We will take Real Quiz 2 on Monday!
