“Cold” is a regular adjective, and “freezing” is an extreme adjective.</div>

Adjectives are words that describe the qualities of something. Some adjectives in English are <strong style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">gradable </strong>– that means you can have different degrees or levels of that quality. For example, the weather can be a little cold, rather cold, very cold, or extremely cold.</div>

We are all hoping for better weather this week and no more class cancellations! Our present perfect quiz is rescheduled for Monday, February 4. </h3>
<br />
We had a short week with only one class, so there is not much content to review on here. Below you will find some information on American football and the Super Bowl championship game (which is tonight). The Super Bowl is not only about football. Many people watch it to see the interesting commercials and halftime performance. This year, the popular band Maroon 5 will be performing. The two competing football teams are the New England Patriots and the Lost Angeles Rams.<br />

Welcome back to ESL class! This past week we watched 2 videos about creating mini-goals for improving our English in 2019. If you keep your goals short, you are more likely to reach them. We also wrote sentences in future tense. You can review the videos below.<br />

Some people make financial goals for a new year. Here is a budget worksheet to help you keep your money organized so you can save for future goals such as traveling, education, buying a home, etc.<br />

This week in class we will begin learning about the present perfect tense. I have created 2 Quizlets for you to practice the simple past tense and past participles with irregular verbs.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://quizlet.com/_5x74er" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;"><b>Past Participles A-K</b></span></a><br />

This past week we focused on the theme 'traveling' . In case you were absent, you will have the opportunity to give a presentation on December 12 (Wed.) or 17 (Mon.).<br />
<br />
You will answer the question: <b><u><span style="color: red;">Where would you recommend people go if they visit your country?</span></u></b><br />
<b><u><span style="color: red;"><br /></span></u></b>
You will have 3-5 minutes to complete your presentation. There is a sign-up paper in the classroom for each class for you to choose a date. You should discuss 3-4 things people can do in the city you recommend and can use powerpoint or bring photos on a flashdrive.<br />
<br />
You will also write your presentation and turn it in. <span style="color: red;"><a href="https://www.dropbox.com/s/dmalp5gliafy9sr/What%20city%20should%20people%20visit%20in%20your%20country.docx?dl=0" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Here</span></a> </span>is a sample paragraph and you can listen to a <a href="http://www.elllo.org/video/1401/1430-Lasse-MustSee.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">sample presentation</span></a>.<br />
<br />
We also listened to a long dialogue called <a href="http://www.elllo.org/english/1401/1405-MegTodd-Travel-Spain.htm" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Meg's Travels</span></a>. I recommend you listen again and practice.<br />

This is a short month for our class - only 3 weeks! Let's learn as much as possible. December usually brings snowy weather. We will talk in class about what to do in case of an emergency. Below is a video you can watch on driving in the snow.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe width="320" height="266" class="YOUTUBE-iframe-video" data-thumbnail-src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/HZTgmC0Pmb8/0.jpg" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HZTgmC0Pmb8?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<br />
Have you heard about AAA? AAA is an inexpensive road service that can help you if you get stuck in the snow, your battery dies, or you need roadside assistance. <a href="https://autoclubsouth.aaa.com/membership/membership.aspx"><span style="color: red;">https://autoclubsouth.aaa.com/membership/membership.aspx</span></a><br />
<br />
Do you know how to use the past continuous verb tense? In the first video below you will hear several examples. The second video teaches you how to use the grammar.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Do you know how to use quotation marks when you are writing in English? It is not something you do very often, but it is useful to understand the basics.<br />

For the next two weeks, our theme will be <u>money</u>. We will discuss many things, but I want you to think about any specific questions you have.<br />
<br />
<br />
Below is a video about 11 phrasal verbs used for talking about money in English.<br />
<br />

<br />
There is a saying that money cannot buy love or happiness. Do you agree? The Beatles wrote a song about this idea which we will listen to in class.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here are two listening activities you can do about the topic of money. Once you listen, scroll down to "Vocabulary Activities" and complete the online exercises. You can also click on "quiz script" to read as you listen.<br />
