Welcome to our Reading and Writing level 3 class for the term.
Over the next six weeks, we will be working through a couple of chapters in Quest, which involve reading and writing several different kinds of texts. We will also add some extra reading and writing to keep things interesting every day; we will, for example, be regularly writing on this class blog.
Thank you for signing up for it; I hope you find the class useful and also enjoyable.
At 6:00 PM today, I will email you your invitation to join this blog. After you accept it, you can start writing posts and comments. In class tomorrow morning, we will write our first blog posts and comments for the term. In the meantime, you might like to have a look at the two blog posts below that I've just written. They both respond to articles in the BBC News yesterday. I'll write another one later today, either responding to another BBC News story, or perhaps something in The New York Times.
Peter.

Before you click the blue "Publish" button for your first comment on a post, check ✔ the "Notify me" box. You want to know when your classmates contribute to a discussion you have joined.
A thoughtful response should normally mean writing for five to ten minutes. After you state your main idea, some details, explanation, examples or other follow up will help your readers.
