Thanks to Faisal, Alzahra, & Abdelraheem!

Hi Students,

I'd especially like to thank, Faisal for being the first student who created his blog, named About Me Faisal.

I'd also like to thank Abdelraheem for being the first student who sent me an SMS as well as Alzahra who was the third student who sent her SMS. However, I haven't received the URLs of your blogs yet!

I look forward to reading your posts to your blogs and to communicating with you online and learning, together!

Thank you for your interest in learning and improving your English skills.


See you in class, tomorrow!

Week 1 - HW Assignments!

Hi Class,

Your first homework assignments using technology for this week are the following:

1) Please send me an SMS with your name and student ID number.

(Please note, my mobile phone number is included in the handout with some information about this course, which I gave you earlier in class).

2) Create your Writing Blog using Blogger.com.

(Please note, you will use your blog to post your writing assignments, in addition to anything useful you'd like to share with all of us. Also, please follow the instructions I gave in class on how to create a blog by blogger. If you still need help with that, let me know, please).

3) Do exercise A on page 10 in your workbook.


Good luck!
