Today is the second class of our new July four class set. We will start class with a casual conversation. Our reading this week is about the Milky Way Project. Please read as much as you can. Our listening material is about Pop Mart. We will finish class with our grammar review. Writing the sentences on a separate piece of paper by hand is a wonderful way to practice. We will start a generational phrases exercise. Please review the phrases.
