The End of Forgetting — Anglais
Four years ago, Stacy Snyder, then a 25-year-old teacher in training at Conestoga Valley High School in Lancaster, Pa., posted a photo on her MySpace page that showed her at a party wearing a pirate hat and drinking from a plastic cup, with the caption "Drunken Pirate." After discovering the page, her supervisor at the high school told her the photo was "unprofessional," and the dean of Millersville University School of Education, where Snyder was enrolled, said she was promoting drinking in virtual view of her under-age students. As a result, days before Snyder's scheduled graduation, the university denied her a teaching degree. Snyder sued, arguing that the university had violated her First Amendment rights by penalizing her for her (perfectly legal) after-hours behavior. But in 2008, a federal district judge rejected the claim, saying that because Snyder was a public employee whose photo didn't relate to matters of public concern, her "Drunken Pirate" post was not protected speech.

Movie Segments to Assess Grammar Goals: Unbreakable: Present Perfect (with Just)
This movie is not one I would strongly recommend, but it has good moments. This scene is one of them. David's, Bruce Willis's character, touching passers-by make him see what they have just done minutes before that, which is perfect for the students to practice the present perfect tense, using - just - in their sentences. In this exercise they are to write down whole sentences, which makes it more challenging than the other ones I have published on this grammar goal. I hope you like it.

The man in yellow has just broken a bottle on a passer-by. The man in green has taken advantage of a drunk woman. The man in orange has just broken into a house and murdered someone there.
Let’s talk fitness – the vocabulary of health and fitness
As many of you will know, I went to Rome last week for 5 days. During those five days we must have walked for miles and miles (well, it certainly seemed like it). I wish I’d brought my pedometer so that I could have calculated the number of steps I’d taken and the calories burned. Now that I’m back and autumn beckons I have decided that I would like to work on and improve my fitness levels. As an adult I got into fitness through aerobics in my early 20s and ever since then, I have been fairly consistent with getting and staying fit. Nearly thirty years on (I can’t believe I just wrote that!) I remember, a few years ago, I had a personal trainer who told me that if I wanted to lose weight I would have to halve my food portions. I really thought that that would be impossible to achieve as I was worried I might get hungry. However, he was right. My job entails a lot of sitting around. We have a cross-trainer in our garage and I also enjoy running (actually it’s more jogging!). Ciao for now
New means of communication (séries générales LV2)
Good news for worried parents: all those hours their teenagers spend socializing on the Internet are not a bad thing, according to a new study by the MacArthur Foundation. “It may look as though kids are wasting a lot of time hanging out with new media, whether it’s on MySpace or sending instant messages,” said Mizuko Ito, lead researcher on the study, “Living and Learning With New Media.” “But their participation is giving them the technological skills and literacy they need to succeed in the contemporary world. The study, conducted from 2005 to last summer, describes new-media usage but does not measure its effects. “It certainly rings true that new media are inextricably woven into young people’s lives,” said Vicki Rideout, vice president of the Kaiser Family Foundation and director of its program for the study of media and health. Ms. “Those concerns about predators and stranger danger have been overblown,” she said.

September is for City Breaks – let’s explore some vocabulary | English with a Twist
I must, first of all, apologise for my silence last week. I had a particularly heavy teaching schedule that left me with hardly any time to think let alone write a post. Unlike many people, August is always a very busy teaching month for me. I always get fully booked with my full immersion intensive courses as many dedicated people use their holiday to attend an English Language course in London. When September arrives and most people are preparing themselves for the return to work and the start of a new academic year, I go on holiday. This year my husband and I have booked to go on a 5-day city break to Rome. We arrive in Rome at 10:20am. I’m really looking forward to showing my husband around city. I don’t know about you, but what I love most about city breaks is walking around the city, taking in the sights, watching the people go about their business, taking lots of photos and sampling the local food. We’ve downloaded a map of Rome. We plan to visit the main tourist attractions.
