            Ivrit Ramah Shesh VI-B

Welcome, seniors, to our webpage!

Now, to impress me and to score big, you need to do the following things regularly:

1- Participate meaningfully in class.

2- Complete ALL your assignments (and there will be many) on time and neatly done.

    (remember that how you do your work is a reflection upon you..)

    Definition of "on time"= when the teacher asks for it (i.e.-not in your locker, not

    at the end of the day, not in email, not in spirit, etc)

3- Pay attention in class and take notes on stuff you are learning. Integrate it fast.

4- Sense of humor is appreciated; so is tact.

5- No English, please.

6- Arrive on time and be ready to "perform".

7- If you don't understand something, ask.  If  you are intimidated, see me after class for

    an explanation.  Don't let little problems become big ones.

8- Be honest.

So, what is it we are going to learn in this quarter? 

                  >>>>   Leadership and leaders. 

Political, social, scientific, business, you name it!  Hoveret 18 is the best of the series, for real. The vocabulary is easy and pertinent; the grammar- a lot of review and expansion of things you already know. Lots of interviews and great activities.  And a project............. 

It is for mature audiences only.  I hope you are ready for it.

 

So stay tuned and tuned in, and "follow the leader".

(Be the first to mention in Hebrew to me that you read "follow the leader" here and win......big $$$$!)
