Hello there, everybody, 
This school year (2023-2024) is really difficult for me at the moment. There are so many new responsibilities that I’ve been encouraged to take on, that I’m now realizing I was never really going to be able to take on, on top of just lesson planning and teaching, but it’s also the year that we went on strike. 

Seeing as I’m scheduling this in the same year (2024), I am hoping that we did get some good things from the strike and that it is not going to have been for nothing? But… anyways, let’s move on to my recommendation for you today:

How are you doing? One of my students needed some help with reviewing a text that he was doing for a… Choose your own adventure story that he was making with his teammates for a class and the website they were using was… *chef’s kiss*. Without further ado, let’s go:

Hi there everybody,
At the risk of having my colleagues be mad at me for doing projects and not something else all year, I’m going to confess something that I’ve been feeling bad about all school year:

My older students this year (so I don’t outright out myself) have not really been doing much grammar since the beginning of the year. The positive “action” today is: it’s the first day that I am confident I did some grammar.

Hey there, everybody,
Hope you’re doing well! Last week, I started a post titled: “Written Productions (in French),” which technically should be already published on this blog and you should be able to find it over here. 

I am continuing to prepare some of my students for their Ministry exams, and of course, I was thinking of keeping track of how many words students need to be able to write for a written production in English. I think that this is pretty important, given the fact that we want students to be ready for their end-of-year exam.
