For My Level 4 ESL Class,
Today we are reviewing Unit 1 for a quiz next Saturday, April 7th. Also, we are continuing to work on Unit 2, in our Ventures 4 book. On the right side of this page you will see a link to Ventures Arcade. Click on the link and it will take you to Ventures 4, follow the link to Unit 1, then Unit 2. Complete the exercises on Noun Clauses in Unit 1 and, in Unit 2, on the Passive Voice and Reading.
When you finish the above exercises, think about this...
The topic of Unit 2 is Student Success. Have you discovered your passion for learning? What is your goal for education? What are your career goals? Life goals?
Here are some student success quotes to help you think through the process:
For example:
"Education is not a preparation for life; education is life itself." - John Dewey
"Education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire." – W.B. Yeats
Please follow the link for more inspirational quotes on learning:

Be prepared to share your goals with the class.
Also, have you thought about transferring into the Credit ESL classes on main campus? The next meeting is on Tuesday, April 10th, please ask me for further details.
Best,
Teacher Bonnie

The Amish
Hello Class,
Please click on the link below to see a PBS profile on the Amish people, you may have to cut and paste the link into your browser. It is a really interesting biography about a very devote group of people that hold on to their traditions and values from hundreds of years ago.
