Learn More English in Your Free Time

Students have been asking, "How can we get better at English?"  The answer is to spend as much time as you can listening to and talking with native speakers. Here's a link to a website, found by Lily, that has dozens of practical suggestions. You might already be doing some of them.

Protect yourself from the freezing weather!

Cold weather is dangerous. To avoid frostbite and hypothermia, please do these things:
Cover your head, hands and face.
Wear layers of clothes on your upper and lower body.
Wear boots.
Keep extra jackets, hats, and mittens in your car.
Be sure your cell phone is charged every morning.
Thank you for being safe!
