Today in class, LV 30.1

Today, we completed our listening section on the preceding video.  You can listen to Mumford and Sons music here and here.
Then, we did a quick grammar lesson on distinguishing the difference between FOR, SINCE, and DURING

• For - a certain amount of time (3 years, a few minutes, a month)
• Since - a specific date or time (October 8, the beginning of class, 1945, I was born)
• During - a specific amount or section of time (Don't talk during the test, we will discuss that during the next 5 minutes)

We presented our celebrity interviews.
We listened to 3 book reports.
We wrote in our diaries.

Homework for next time: prepare a presentation on a "How-to" article or process.  Explain why someone would need to know how to do this thing, and then explain the steps necessary to complete the process.  Optionally, you may bring objects with you to class to give a demonstration.  You can get this information from something you already know or simply from an online source such as this video. You will also need to explain difficult words or phrases that you came across in the preparation for your presentation.
