Hey guys,

today we started our new sequence but you still don't know its title for sure... we'll see about that next time.

Here is what we did today. You had to describe this picture paying attention to details so as to be able to locate it and give it a date. You also had to find out who was on that boat and make assumptions.

Here is what we said about the document in the end:

The picture of New-York

- The document is a photophraph  of NYC in black and white. It can be divided into 3 parts:

- A boat (in the foreground, on the left)
- the Statue of Liberty (in the middle)
- a part of the city (in the background, on the right-hand side)

It was taken before 9.11.2001. Indeed, we can see one of the two Twin Towers which were destroyed on that day.

Assumptions (hypotheses):

We can guess / suppose / imagine / assume the boat is full of tourists -> Forme verbale

Perhaps / maybe / probably / possibly, they are taking pictures -> Adverbe

They may / might be taking pictures of the statue -> Auxiliaire modal
  
may : sûr à 50 %
might : sûr à 10 %

Vocabulary:

"to be written by Stacy"

HW:

- apprendre la leçon et être capable de faire le recap sur cette image en début d'heure. Commencez à faire des fiches de vocabulaire selon les thèmes qui commencent à se dessiner (water, city, ...)

- finir la présentation de son classeur de façon à pouvoir s'autonoter et obtenir 20/20 en tenue de classeur; un 20/20 que je validerai en ramassant vos classeurs et en contrôlant rapidement leur contenu. Vous pouvez télécharger / imprimer / recopier la fiche d'auto-notation ici.

- Certains d'entre vous doivent également m'envoyer par internet le résultat de la correction du devoir de façon à ce que tout le monde puisse profiter du travail de groupe que vous avez effectué et valider vos points de bonus pour le prochain devoir.
