today we first made a recap of the situation in the text and then, we worked on identifying the alibis of the suspect and we saw that none of them could really stand.

Here is what we said:

Inez Olson may have killed the governor because she didn't like him. She says he wasn't kind.

Samuel Mason may have murdered him. His alibi is strange. He says he wasn't watching TV or listening to the radio but Hamilton could hear music upstairs.

7:30 - 8:00 = time of the murder

4:00 = telephone call

Finally, you took a lesson and vocabulary test.

today you had to work on creating a jazz chant for the evening routine.

You worked on vocabulary, rhythm and pronunciation.

At the end of the class, we also modified the second jazz chant to sing in trios so that the person in the middle could be a boy.

We saw we had to change 3 things:

- she -> he

- her -> his

- the verbs with he / she get an "s" for the 3rd person singular.

today you first copied the lesson from last time after making a quick recap. Then you worked in groups to try and find the alibis of the suspects and say if they were solid or if they didn't stand.

Here are some of your ideas:

Inez says she was watching TV in her room when the governor died. She heard a noise; so she is a possible witness. Her alibi is not solid because there isn't anyone to confirm it.

Samuel says he was at home when the governor died. He was watching television too. He says he is a political ally but recently he has had problems with the governor. They have been in a competition for a job.

James says he was reading his mail and that he was on the telephone with Robert. That's why he had his name in his calendar. He also says he has been sick and has stayed in bed for days. Maybe there are clues in his bin.
