How have your views changed?

Hello Everyone,

In the past two weeks, you've met and talked to some native Canadians and read about their historical problems. I would like to know if your views on native Canadians have changed, and, if so, how?

Have a good weekend, and enjoy National Aboriginal Day at the Forks on Saturday!

Residential School Survivors

When Native Canadian children were torn from their families and taken to residential schools, how do you think they must have felt? What can be done now to help these survivors of a cruel school system?

I look forward to reading your ideas on this important subject.

Abel's brilliant idea

Hello Everyone,

A few days ago, Abel wrote to me with a new idea, and I think it's totally brill. What do you think? Here it is:

The problem is speaking Korean too much after school or on weekends. It is hard to meet foreigners after I finish class~ Moreover, I feel my speaking skill is getting worse…these days~ So I am annoyed with myself.

Nowadays I have gotten acquainted with many Koreans. So I can’t help speaking Korean when I am with them.

So I am thinking about making a group for studying English after school. For debating or listening. Do you think it is helpful for us?

Surely, I know it will be helpful for us… But I’m not sure it is a realistic plan~

We don’t have any subject to discuss. Could you tell me where I can get some good topic??

See you on Monday!

What'll your classmates be doing?

Hello All,

Tell me, what are your classmates going to be doing this weekend? This month? Next year?
By the time they're old, what will they have accomplished? How many children will they have had?
And what will they have been doing for a long time?

Have fun practicing your grammar and making predictions--this is not a serious question.

See you on Monday,

Carol
