For those who said you were interested in babysitting on June 18th or 19th for English speaking children, could you please contact me by email at njs2g@virginia.edu.
I'd also like to thank you for being a particulary agreable group to work with this semester. I feel the animated dynamic among you is really bennificial for your language education. If you stay together in L2, I encourgage you to maintain that dynamic. And finally, a word about speaking English versus speaking French in classes. You have done quite a good job getting used to speaking only English to me and to each other while in class. The major execption is when you are in small groups to prepare something to present to the class together. There, you have a tendancy to slip into French. I think talking about what you're going to say is one of the places where we most want to revert to our native language. I encourage you to be aware of that tendancy and try to eliminate it as you continue. If you succeed there, you will be not only a very good group but an outstanding group.
I hope you enjoy your break and good luck preparing for exams.
