This is a real workspace! Here you'll get angaged with your classmates and students from another Master 1 class at Pró-Línguas so that we get to interact with everybody building a Learning Network.
This is a first experience and do not think of Luciana as the teacher. I'm going to be here suggesting activities, moderating, participating, but I do not know everything and will be learning together with you. I hope we can get the best from this work and really improve our knowledge and abilities in English learning.
This is not the only thing we are doing this semester, we will also have to work with Top Notch text and workbook and I will upload some extra activities that you can access here if you think it is necessary. Remember, an important concept and ability we should develop here, is autonomy. The most you study the better, so it is up to you, how far do you want to go?
We are supposed to:
participate in the activities that will be assigned here;
collaborate with the other participants;
suggest activities that you think might be interesting;
suggest links of sites, blogs, in which you find good resources;
share your opinions and reflections;
respect each other's opinions and reflections;
be polite when disagreeing;
sing in at least every two days to check if there are new exercises or activities.
Well, this is what I think you are supposed to do, but as I said, we are partners here, so what do you think we are supposed to do? Click in EDIT above and include at least one suggestion:
Go to the Assignments page, to check new activities.

Hi all,
Here's the video I mentioned in Friday's class. It's very funny!!! Just to reLAX!!!!
Hey, dear. I have a suggestion, but I don't know where I can put it, so I'll put it here.
It's a kind of game and a way teacher Luciana can use to force us speaking only in English. If someone says a word in a language which isn't English, he or she pays 10 cents (or something like this) for a box. In the end of semester, we can get this money and pay a party for us.
I think it's a great game! We need someone to keep this money with. Or we can take note about how much everyone owes and in the end of semester these people can pay.
First of all, I'd like to congratulate you for your participation, I've been away for a while but I'm back now and happy because you are doing the job and in fact you do not need me to do that.
I loved the idea of the game, and I am looking forward meeting you next class to see what the others think.
See you then.
HI dear,
You'll find the activities you have to do in the Forum 1 page, The Vocabulary Project page, the VOKI page and in the Assignments page.
Good Luck!
Bel, Edna came up with an excellent idea. She said we can take note of the people's name and how much they have to pay. And, at the end of semester, they pay.
I agree with this idea and I think this is gonna add so much in our knowledge and skill in english. But is important note the word and try to say to help us learn it. I think that is better teacher Luciana help us with the money to avoid any problem.
Hi Laís,
Corrections:
1. add so much in - add so much to;

Cheers!
Hi People,
Im back after a long time away. Sorry for that. You are still talking about the game, I think it would be great and I don't believe that would help us save enough for a party. Anyway, you decide if we are playing or not. But if any of you decide not to play, it is OK, then.
Hi Morgana,
Corrections:
1. I think is not necessary this game - I think this game is not necessary;
2. problems if portuguese - problems with Portuguese
Remember we are not having class today (June 17th), nor tomorrow (June 18th). Instead, use your time to participate in the foruns 4, 5 and Euthanasia.
See you next Friday and Saturday.
Ana Isabel, Wandrieli and Bruna, I've included your names in the Immersion at CIL, so I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at 8:45. Your T-shirts are ready.
Yours
Luciana
Hi all,
Next Saturday, we are promoting the first Linguistic Immersion at CIL. It’s an event for Intermediate and Advanced students of English who are interested in spending an entire day speaking English with other learners. There are going to be activities related to music, art, movies, theater, culture, comics, and also a great lunch with typical food pasta with meatballs, coleslaw salad, juice and ice cream for dessert.
I think that could be a great opportunity for you to practice. It’ll cost R$10,00 and we are making a T-shirt with the image below that will cost R$15,00, but you have to order in advance.
So, if you are interested, you can leave me a message here, or e-mail me at luthcal@gmail.com or even call me at 8212 9666.
Plugin error: That plugin is not available.
Hello all,
I'm really, really sorry for the silence.
I'm still evaluating your participation, so the test is going to be only on Saturday, May 6th. So just relax.
Today (April 29th) and tomorrow (April, 30th) you'll decide if you want or not to do the test to improve your grades. So relax and see you today (or tomorrow)
Luciana
HAPPY EASTER!!
HAPPY EASTER!!
Hi Guys,
