Week 4

G'day all and welcome to another week!

Hasn't the weather been lovely? There is a real taste of spring in the air! Let's hope it continues!

Well done to all those who've now created a blog! I think there is only one person missing and I hope that you get going today! Now you just have to start posting! That said, I had trouble accessing a couple of your blogs. I'd better check today that I've entered your blog addresses correctly!

As the London Paralympics are about to begin, I'd like you today to answer these questions about them AND to write up your answers as a short information report!
  • What are the Paralympics?
  • When did they start and why?
  • When is the opening ceremony being held in 2012?
  • What is the logo for the London Paralympics? (Add a picture of it on your blog)
  • What's the significance of these Paralympics being in London?
  • How many medals are 'up for grabs'?
  • How many countries are sending athletes this year?
  • How many Australian Paralympians are going?
  • Who will carry the flag for Australia?
  • What is the name given to the Australian Wheelchair basketball team?
  • Find information about Kurt Fearnley and write about some of his achievements.
When you've done that, try some of the exercises on the present perfect from English4U. (the link is on the right of this page)

Have a good week and happy blogging!
