March holidays!

Ever wonder why March is labelled as March, why October is the 10th month of the year (when octopus has only 8 legs and octagon has 8 sides) and why July and August are named after Roman emperors?

Wondering is fine but action is necessary. I would require certain actions from you, my beloved students, for this March holidays.

Necessary Action 1 

By 13 March 11.59pm, you are to post on your blog a 300-word discussion or argument on one of the following topics:

a) Do parents over-control their child nowadays?

or

b) Computer games addiction

You are to use at least 4 modals, 3 discourse organisers and 1 introduction technique as listed in the Persuasive Writing notes.

Necessary Action 2

Read through your classmates’ blogs and nominate the best one by posting a comment on this entry, before 13 March 11.59pm.

You have to explain why the nominated blog is good in about 100 words.  You also have to leave your NAME and CLASS in that comment.

Necessary Action 3

Leave a comment on the blog of your classmates which have + and – 1 of your register number, by 13 March 11.59pm. You know what I mean. If you don’t, you better find out.

The 3 Necessary Actions must be executed, at all costs. The faithful will be rewarded.

I shall end off Term 1 with a video of Queen singing We Will Rock You and We Are The Champion at Wembley Stadium in 1986 to more than 120,000 fans. Can you imagine a crowd of 120,000 fans?

Wonder, wonder, what a wonder…
