Today is the third class in our current four class set. We will begin class with our Vocabulary Challenge. You will need to write sentences for each of our vocabulary words. 

                       The phrase of the week is, "rat race." This is a phrase we use to describe continuously working with a clear objective and with no end in sight. For example, "I feel like my life has become a rat race."

                         Today's reading material is about moving to a small town in Italy and our listening material is on parental leave. I have changed the fonts for the material just to see how students react. Please listen for the vocabulary words and create examples.
