I just can't stop blogging:)

Hey girls!!! I've just come home from sleighing. Can you guess what was the first thing that I did???:):) I went to check your comments!!! It looks like I'm getting addicted to blogging:):)

Well, I would just like to say that this experiment was a real fun for me too, not just because it's a new approach to language learning, but mostly because of you. I was a bit sceptical at the beginning and didn't really know which class to choose to blog with, but now I know I've made a right decision. You are all very smart and talkative students, ready for new changes that life (let's say school:) brings.

I was really flattered when I read Manca's comment:

"So Katja i don´t know, but it looks like, that it will be better if you give us some task or two again:) hehe."

Manca, don't push it, it may actually happen:):)

If you really want to keep this blog, let me know and we can decide together what to do next. There is also another possibility - you can create your own blog!!! This might be even more interesting!!! Consider the idea!

Hope to type you soon!!!

Thank you all for joining!!!

WE'VE COME TO AN END!!!


SAMIR, MANCA, KATJA B.,

ALEKSANDRA S., MONIKA,

KATJA P., KATJA S., ANITA P.


Thank you all for joining me at blogging!!!

I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

But!!! Before letting you "off the hook":) I have one last question to ask you: (actually there are 3:):)

Do you think that blog as such has a future in learning English at school?
Would you like to practise English this way or do you prefer classroom learning?
How did you enjoy this experiment?


And the results are...

Well done MONIKA!!!!

All your guesses were correct. How on earth did you recognize them all? Are you a psychic???:)

As for the others, most of you were very close and it was fun to read your suggestions. Almost all of you recognized Leonardo Di Caprio while the other two were a bit toughish.

The celebrities on the pictures are:

1. Helen Hunt
2. Leonardo Di Caprio
3. Tom Cruise

Hope you all enjoyed the guessing!

Your last task - Task 6: (Guessing)

How did the celebrities look like when they were younger???

Look at the photos below and try to guess which celebrity is on each picture. Remember, when guessing, you use different modal verbs ( must, could, couldn't, might, ... according to your degree of certainty)

Do your guessing for the following photos by using modal verbs!

Just wondering... (Task 5)

First of all, I must say you've all done a great job!!!

I couldn't stop reading your bright and interesting ideas last night and it seems to me that you either enjoyed the topic or you are just very well acquainted with the "rules of behaving" once being in a relationship.

I am also glad to see that you've started to communicate with your classmates. Remember, you can always comment their work or ask THEM some additional questions.

While reading your responses, I was just wondering... How do you feel about INTERNET DATING? Is it just a funny way of meeting new people or COULD it be dangerous as well?

TASK 4: How to lose (keep) a guy (or girl) in 10 days?

Ok, let's say your date went on well and you DID make a good impression on your "better half". You're now officially a couple and both very much in love. You think about him (her) all the time and see him (her) every day. BUT! Is this enough to keep your relationship going? Or are there some things that you just HAVE TO DO in order to stay together?

In my opinion, you:

*have to meet his friends and get on well with them, otherwise he will have to choose between you and them and will be frustrated,

*have to trust him although this can be very difficult sometimes.

What are some of your ideas?

Wanted!!!!

SAMIR, ALEKSANDRA, MONIKA, KATJA P.

Where are you? I'm still eagerly waiting for your responses (Task 3)

YOU'RE SIMPLY THE BEST!:)

KATJA B.!

I like your way of thinking Katja and I must say I absolutely agree with your statements. What is more, I am surprised to see how mature you seem to be at your age. I don't know whether you have written your comments from your experience but you really sound like a very smart and reasonable girl. Write us soon!!

MANCA H.!

While reading your comment, I was LOL (laughing out loud). You seem to be such an optimistic person, quite a joker I must say. Shaving is definitely inevitable!!!:):), not to mention your humorous comments about the "Tic Tac" and "talking odd things "(I used to do that on my dates because I was nervous and it didn't work out well:)) A winner is definitely a mini-skirt in " which your ass is open for all eyes around you":):):) that's a really good one!!

Anybody who hasn't read the girls' responses do it now! You won't be sorry!

Task 3 (How to make your first date a success)

Let's say your best friend is going out with the person (he/she) is in love with and would like to make a good impression on their first date. What advice would you give (him/her?)

You don't have to write a comment, just make a list of some good and bad ideas (what she/he should and shouldn't do). Think of of the following: what to wear or not to wear, where to go or not to go, what to do or not to do, what to talk about, what to drink or eat, how to depart...)

For example:

a) * SHOULD dress sexy??:)
* SHOULD put some make up on
.
.
.

b) * SHOULDN'T be late
* SHOULDN'T talk all the time
.
.
