Today is the first class of our new April four class set. We will begin class with unit 35 of our grammar book. We will also start our propose a solution questions. These are customer service situations that I will read aloud in class. You will respond with a structured response. 

                               The phrase of the week is, "in the neighborhood of." We also call this a 'ballpark figure.' We use this phrase as an estimate. For example, "I spent in the neighborhood of $100 on groceries last week."

                                Today's reading is about spending for experiences and our listening material is about tariffs and trade. Please listen and make examples for the vocabulary words.
