This Week

We learnt a new essay called argumentative essay on Monday. Gülsen teacher handed out 'The Lotttery' and ' The Open Window' stories for which we were responsible for our quizs. The following day some of my classmates presented their grammar topics and some of us presented our advertisements to Fulden teacher on grammar course. In addition, the other friends presented their advertisements on Wednesday. In my opinion, all of the advertisements were perfect. By the way, I congragulate my friends on their effort for their advertisements with my most sincere feelings. Moreover, on Wednesday we talked about what we felt while acting our own advertisements and which difficulties we were face to face. On Thursday we were late with Firdevs. When we entered the class, Gülsen teacher were talking about The Open Window and were asking to our classmates some questions related to The Open Window. We sat down and joined discussion about that story. After a while, we had the quizs of that story. After quiz, we studied on ' The Lottery' written by Shirley Jackson. To tell the truth, I didn't like the story at first reading because I had had some missing parts in my mind. However, after the discussion on Thursday, I enjoyed reading it which gave us some information about traditions and how much people living in that time depended on their rituals. We understood that following the crowd can cause disasters. Furthermore, Traditions can make people fault. After discussion of the story, we passed writing class. We checked out our argumentative essays with each other and scored them. On Friday We watched a movie called The Groundhog Day which was so boring. Then we had a quiz about this movie.
