Dear Class,
We look forward to seeing you at our next Zoom meeting on Tuesday at 17:30! By Monday night, please complete the following:
Penpal Reunion: New (Updated) Task
During our last meeting, some of you had the opportunity to meet your mystery penpals in breakout rooms, while others did not. We would now like everyone to complete their letter exchange and get to know their penpal a little.
- In Moodle, go to the Identity section and open the subsection Penpal Boards. You will find a Board for your working group, with columns showing the penpal pairs.
- Please upload your original letter and the response you wrote to your penpal, and make sure to read your penpal's response. Full instructions are provided on the Board, and additional technical help is available in Documents and Tutorials.
- During our Zoom meeting, you will introduce your penpal to the rest of your working group, sharing something you think you have in common and something you find interesting or admirable about them.
At the top of Moodle go into the link for the padlet "The Story Behind Your Name" and add your details, if you haven't done so yet! The task, to explain the meaning of your name, is detailed there.
Reading Task
Please read the poem "Dying with the Wrong Name" by Sam Hammod, which you will also find in the Identity section of Moodle. Come prepared to discuss the poem during our meeting.
Looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday!
Best wishes,
Your TEC English Instructors
